Define and contrast two connective tissues properties: elasticity and plasticity
a. Elasticity is the ability of tissues to return to their original shape after being deformed. Plasticity is deformation of tissues beyond their elastic limit, which results in irreversible changes.
b. Elasticity is the inability of tissues to return to their original shape after being deformed. Plasticity is deformation of tissues beyond their elastic limit, which results in irreversible changes.
c. Elasticity is the ability of tissues to return to their original shape after being deformed. Plasticity is deformation of tissues beyond their elastic limit, which results in reversible changes.
d. Elasticity is the ability of tissues to return to their original shape after being deformed. Plasticity is regeneration of tissues beyond their plastic limit, which results in irreversible changes.
