  • A
    Bones will move freely at joints.
  • B
    No movement at joints.
  • Correct answer
    C
    Bone will become unfix.
  • D
    Bone will become fixed.

Solution

A ligament is the fibrous connective tissue that connects bones to other bones. If the ligaments are cut or broken, the bone will become unfixed. Related THeory:- Tendons are dense fibrous tissues that bind the muscles to the bone. They are responsible for the movement by transmitting the contraction force produced by the muscles to the bone they hold. Ligaments allow the movement but up to a limit.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
