Question

What is the distinctive characteristic of connective tissue?

which is the correct answer

flat, interconnected cells

presence of a matrix

presence of axons

Answer 1

My guess would be contractile; a.k.a. muscle.

Answer 2

hi hodgi.. i'm the girl with is a ***** i'm italian can you speak with me

Answer 3

A matrix is found in cartilage and bone tissue.

Axons are found in neurons.

Contractile ability is most prominent in muscle tissue.

Although I personally think "flat, interconnected cells" does not best describe connective tissue (sounds more apt for squamous epithelium), but based on your choices, the most sound answer would be "flat, interconnected cells."

Answer 4

The first and second people who answered you a while ago are both wrong. Presence of a matrix is one of the characteristics of connective tissue.

Flat, interconnected cells => epithelial

presence of matrix => connective tissue

presence of axons => nerve tissue

contractile ability => muscle tissue
