The answer is True: Muscle tissue holds more water than fat tissue.

Explanation:

  • Muscle tissue is composed of approximately 75% water, which is significantly higher than the water content in fat tissue.
  • Fat tissue, on the other hand, contains about 10-20% water.
  • This difference in water content is due to the cellular structure and function of muscle tissue, which requires more water for metabolic processes and to maintain its structure and function.
  • Therefore, the statement that muscle tissue holds more water than fat tissue is true.
