Question

Which of the following is an embryonic connective tissue?

• A. Endometrium
• B. Mediastinum
• C. Mesenchyme
• D. Endothelium

Answer 1

The correct option is C Mesenchyme

Mesenchyme is the part of embryonic mesoderm, that consists of loosely packed, unspecialized cells that are set in a gelatinous ground substance, from which connective tissue, bone, cartilage and the circulatory and lymphatic systems develop. On the other hand, endometrium is the inner mucous membrane of the uterus in mammals. Mediastenum is the group of structures in the thorax. And, endothelium is the thin layer of cells that lines the interior of the blood vessels and lymphatic vessels.
Thus, the correct answer is option (C), 'Mesenchyme'.
