Solution

The correct option is A Cartilage
Cartilage is the specialised connective tissue which is present in the tip of the nose, outer ear joints, vertebral column, limbs and hands in adults. Chondrocytes are the cells of the cartilage tissue. These cells are enclosed in small cavities within the matrix secreted by them.

Bones are specialized connective tissue which is hard and non-pliable and gives a structural frame to the body. Osteocytes are the cells of the bone tissue.

Muscles are an important part of muscular tissue which plays an important role in the movement of the body. Muscles are long cylindrical fibres arranged in parallel arrays composed of myofibrils.

Blood is a fluid connective tissue composed of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets.
