Answer 1

The correct option is A

Bone

Bone tissue is the major structural and supportive connective tissue of the body. Bone has hard porous tissue, which forms the rigid part of the bones, that make up the skeleton.Bone tissue is different from bones themselves; bones are organs made up of bone tissue as well as marrow, blood vessels, epithelium and nerves, while bone tissue refers specifically to the mineral matrix that form the rigid sections of the organ.
