Answer:

C. Connecting bones to other bones

Explanation:

Ligament is one of the connective tissues in living systems whose primary function is to connect bones to other bones. Ligaments are made up of a short band of tough fibre making it adapted to that connective function.

In this question involving Tyler who is diagnosed to have torn one of his knee ligaments, it means he has torn one of the many connective tissues that connects his bones to another bone in the knee.
