Answer:

Osteoarthritis is due to wear and tear of _______ with aging.

C. The joints

Step-by-step explanation:

Osteoarthritis is a type of arthritis that happens when the cartilages that protect the cushions at the end of our bones are worn down over time for the lack of nutrients to renew them and the heavy-duty they perform. Now, because we don't see cartilages here and because they are part of the bones joints. The correct answer is C. the joints.
