Solution
The correct option is D Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect. Connective tissue joins one tissue to another. Connective tissue is present inside the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord), but they play role in providing support and protection and thus, have no function in the conduction of nerve impulses. The nerve cells of the brain and spinal cord are held together by other supporting cells but not connective tissue cells.
