Difficulty: Easy

Connective tissue
Epithelial tissue
Muscle tissue
Nervous tissue

Correct Answer: Connective tissue

Explanation:

Concept / ApproachConnective tissue (e.g., areolar, adipose, bone, cartilage, blood) is the most abundant and widely distributed, providing support, binding, storage, defense, and transport.
