Solution

The correct option is C Neurons
Neurons do not regenerate easily. They probably cannot be regenerated, but some biologists have discovered that sometimes nerve cells can regenerate, but take a long time. So this is a big problem for people who injure their nerve cells or nervous system. The damage of nervous system can also cause a person to be paralyzed.
