Solution

The correct option is D Muscle
The tender fleshy structures moving beneath the skin are called muscles. Muscle is a soft tissue found in most animals. We can perform different types of movements with the help of muscles and bones.

Tendons are located at each end of a muscle, attach muscle to bone.

Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue that keeps joint motion fluid by coating the surfaces of the bones in our joints and by cushioning bones against impact.

A ligament is the fibrous connective tissue that connects bones to other bones.
