Question
Answer
dense regular connective tissue - structure   structure - densely packed, parallel collagen fibers; fibroblast nuclei squeezed between fibers; scrace ground substance  
🗑
dense irregular connective tissue - structure   structure - predominantly collagen fibers, randomly arranged and clumped together; fibroblasts in spaces among fibers; more ground substance than in dense regular connective tissue  
🗑
elastic connective tissue - structure   structure - predominantly freely branching elastic fibers; fibroblasts occupy some spaces between fibers  
🗑
dense regular connective tissue - function   function - attaches muscle to bone (tendons) and bone to bone (ligaments); resists stress applied in one direction  
🗑
dense irregular connective tissue - function   function - withstands stresses applied in all directions; durable  
🗑
elastic connective tissue - function   function - allows stretching of some organs  
🗑
dense regular connective tissue - location   location - forms tendons, most ligaments  
🗑
dense irregular connective tissue - location   location - fascia (internal to skin); around muscles and organs; dermis; periosteum covering bone; organ capsules  
🗑
elastic connective tissue - location   walls of elastic arteries; trachea; bronchial tubes; true vocal cords; suspenspry ligaments of penis and lungs
