Which one of the following is an example of a non-elastic connective tissue?

Correct answer: B. Tendon

  • A. Ligaments.
  • B. Tendon
  • C. Muscles.
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Tendons are dense connective tissues with tightly packed collagen fibres and very little elasticity, allowing them to transmit muscle force to bone. The likely distractor is ligaments, which are also connective tissues but normally contain more elastic fibres and permit limited flexibility.
