Correct answer
A. Chondrocytes - Smooth muscle cells
Step-by-step solution
Cartilage is a type of connective tissue which is tough, semi-transparent, elastic and flexible. The matrix or ground substance of cartilage consists of glycoprotein material, chondroitin. The cartilage cells called chondrocytes or chondroblasts occur scattered in the matrix inside the spaces called lacunae. Smooth muscle cells are found surrounding visceral organs and are non-striated involuntary muscles.
