Answer:

c. collagen is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Collagen is the main protein found in connective tissue and skins and it makes different body parts(skin, tendons, muscles, and ligaments)

Collagen function is to give strength to bones and structure to the skin.

Vitamin C is an essential part of a healthy diet and a good source of vitamin C are citrus fruits and green vegetables.

Vitamin C directs the synthesis of a structural protein called collagen.
