Solution

The correct option is C

Mesoderm


The germ layers develop early in embryonic life, through the process of gastrulation. During gastrulation, a hollow cluster of cells called a blastula reorganizes into two primary germ layers: an inner layer, called endoderm, and an outer layer, called ectoderm. There are a variety of body tissues derived from the third or middle primary germ layer known as the mesoderm. These body tissues include:
  • Muscles
  • Connective tissue
  • Bone and cartilage
  • Fat or adipose tissue
  • Blood and lymph vessels
  • Blood cells
