Cardiac muscle and nervous tissue in the brain and spinal cord is the correct answer.

Option D is correct

Tissues with little to no functional regenerative capacity include cardiac muscle and nervous tissue in the brain and spinal cord. Cardiac muscle cells lack the ability to divide and regenerate, which limits their capacity to repair themselves after injury.

In the same way, nervous tissue in the brain and spinal cord has limited regenerative capacity. Unlike other tissues, nerve cells generally do not undergo cell division and have limited ability to repair or regenerate.

Tissues with limited regenerative capacity include cardiac muscle and nervous tissue in the brain and spinal cord. Epithelial tissue, bones, areolar connective tissue, and smooth muscle have varying degrees of regenerative capacity.

complete question:

A)epithelial tissue, bones, and areolar connective tissue

B)cardiac and smooth muscle

C)nervous tissue and smooth muscle

D)cardiac muscle and nervous tissue in the brain and spinal cord
