Solution

The correct option is A Ligament and tendon
Dense regular connective tissue: In this type of tissue, the collagen fibers are densely packed, and arranged parallel to each other. This type of tissue is found in ligaments (which link bone to bone at joints) and tendons (connections between bones or cartilage and muscle). These are powerfully resistant to axially loaded tension forces but allow some stretch.
So, the correct answer is 'Ligament and tendon'.
