A Correct answer
Explanation

The three primary types of fibers found in the extracellular matrix of connective tissues are collagen fibers (for strength), elastic fibers (for flexibility), and reticular fibers (for structural networks). Actin and myosin are intracellular contractile proteins found in muscle tissue, not extracellular connective tissue fibers.
