Final answer:

The muscle tissue has a greater density compared to the adipose tissue.

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is the ratio of the mass of an object to its volume. In this case, you have samples of adipose tissue and muscle tissue with equal volumes, but the muscle tissue has a greater mass. Therefore, the muscle tissue has a greater density compared to the adipose tissue.
