Solution

The correct option is A Both statements 1 and 2 are correct
Bone and cartilage are rigid connective tissues. Bones consist of matrix which is hard, non-pliable and is rich in calcium salts and collagen fibres. This gives bone its strength. The intercellular material of cartilage is solid, pliable and resists compression. Blood is a fluid connective tissue, consisting of plasma. RBCs, WBCs and platelets.
Hence the correct option is A.
