Correct option is D
The correct answer is: D) Ligament
Ligaments are strong, flexible bands of connective tissue that connect two bones at a joint.
They provide stability and support while allowing movement.
Ligaments are made of: Dense fibrous connective tissue rich in collagen.
- Examples:
- ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) – Found in the knee joint
- PCL (Posterior Cruciate Ligament) – Supports the back of the knee.
- Difference between Ligaments and Tendons:
- Ligaments connect bone to bone.
- Tendons connect muscle to bone.
Adipose Tissue : Stores fat, provides insulation and cushioning.
Cartilage : Provides a smooth surface for joint movement and absorbs shock (e.g., found in the ear, nose, and joints).
