a

Explanation:

Muscle and adipose (fat) tissue are distinct types of body tissue with different cellular structures and functions. One type of tissue cannot directly transform into the other. When someone stops working out, muscle mass may decrease due to inactivity, and fat mass may increase if calorie intake exceeds expenditure, but this is not a conversion of muscle to fat.

Answer:

A. Muscle and fat are two different kinds of tissue.
