Which is NOT a characteristic of muscle tissue?

Excitability
Contractility
Permeability
Elasticity

The correct answer is: Permeability

Muscle tissue is specialized for contraction, which is the ability to shorten and generate force. This is known as contractility. Excitability refers to the ability of muscle cells to receive and respond to stimuli, such as nerve impulses. Elasticity refers to the ability to stretch and recoil. Permeability, on the other hand, is the ability of a substance to pass through or be absorbed by a tissue. This is not a characteristic of muscle tissue, as it is not primarily responsible for absorption or filtering of materials.
