Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Areolar tissue is a loose connective tissue that comprises a semifluid ground substance containing several kinds of loosely arranged fibers. It attaches the skin to the underlying tissues, filling the spaces between various organs and thus holding them in place. Areolar tissue also surrounds and supports the blood vessels. 

1. The connective tissue that joins bones with bones is known as ligaments. Hence, option A is incorrect.
2. Fat bodies are connected to the muscles through adipose tissues. Hence, option B is incorrect.
3. The skin or integument is connected with the muscles through the areolar connective tissue. Hence, option C is correct.
4. Bones are connected with muscles through tendons. Hence, option D is incorrect.

So, the correct answer is Areolar connective tissue joins 'Integument with muscles'.
