The skin covering the body is:

  1. inelastic

  2. inflexible

  3. elastic and flexible

  4. very tight

The correct answer is: elastic and flexible

The skin covering the body is both elastic and flexible, meaning the skin has the ability to stretch and move in response to the body's movements. Option A is incorrect because skin is not completely inelastic and does have some elasticity. Option B is incorrect because while skin may be inflexible in certain areas, it is still able to move and stretch to a certain extent. Option D is incorrect because while skin may be tight, it is not always very tight and can still move and stretch. Therefore, the correct answer is C, as it accurately describes the skin's ability to stretch and move.
