Solution
The correct option is D Connective tissue
Blood, bone, tendon, cartilage, ligament, areolar tissue and adipose tissue are various types of connective tissue. Blood is a fluid connective tissue that consists of WBCs that form the body's immune system. Bone, cartilage, tendon and ligament have supportive functions while the areolar tissue supports internal organs and helps in their repair. Adipose tissues store food and fats.
