Answer:

Out of the four given options for the difference in loose and dense connective tissue, the most suitable and correct options are:

option a. and option c.

Explanation:

Both of these are connective tissues and are formed from extracellular matrix and cells. Connective tissues functions to support the tissue structure and connects with other tissues.

The loose connective tissue differs from dense connective tissue as:

Loose connective tissue consists of reticular, collagen and  elastin with  fibroblasts and higher amount of ground substance and

Loose connective tissue comprises of a large number of cells.

whereas

Dense connective tissue comprises of a large number of fibers and a fewer  number of cells and has lesser amount of ground substance.

So, the major point of difference between dense and loose connective tissue is the fiber density in the extracellular matrix in both the connective tissue.
