A
muscle, epithelial, nervous and connective
B
muscle, epidermis, neuron and capillaries
C
muscle, dermis, hypodermis, connective
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Overview. There are 4 basic types of tissue: connective tissue, epithelial tissue, muscle tissue, and nervous tissue. Connective tissue supports other tissues and binds them together (bone, blood, and lymph tissues). Epithelial tissue provides a covering (skin, the linings of the various passages inside the body).

Detailed explanation-2: -Epithelial tissues act as coverings, controlling the movement of materials across their surface. Connective tissue binds the various parts of the body together, providing support and protection. Muscle tissue allows the body to move and nervous tissues functions in communication.

Detailed explanation-3: -Keratinized stratified squamous epithelium and dense fibrous connective tissue together comprise the skin. The epithelial tissue layer of skin, called the epidermis, is composed of cells attached to one another by numerous adhering junctions (maculae adherens, or desmosomes).

Detailed explanation-4: -Epithelial Design of Nervous Tissue. As stated, nervous tissue is a specialized epithelial tissue. Epithelia are sheets of cells that cover surfaces or line cavities of the body and in places grow into subjacent connective tissue to form hair follicles, glands, or other derivatives.
