1.The correct answer is all of the above. Skin is a biological blend of four type of tissue namely muscle, nerve, irregular connective and epidermal. Skin is the largest platform for the nerve receptors. It protects the underlying muscle tissues inside. It is formed of various layers of epithelial cells namely the epidermal and dermal layer. The irregular connective tissue form the blood vessels, sweat and oil glands and hair follicles of the skin.

2. The correct answer is muscle. Muscles are made up of muscular tissue. They consist of actin and myosin filaments. The form the sarcolemma of the muscle fibres.

Tendon are tough band of connective tissue that attached muscle to bones. Ligaments are the tough collagen bands that form dense connective tissues and connect bones to bone at joints. Blood is a loose connective tissue that help in transport and exchange of nutrients and gases.
