GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Dense regular connective tissue is mainly made up of type I collagen fibers. It is found in areas of the body where large amounts of tensile strength are required, like in ligaments, tendons and aponeurosis. The collagen fibers are densely packed together and arranged in parallel to each other.

Detailed explanation-2: -A tendon is a fibrous connective tissue that attaches muscle to bone. Tendons may also attach muscles to structures such as the eyeball. A tendon serves to move the bone or structure.

Detailed explanation-3: -Your musculoskeletal system includes bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments and soft tissues. They work together to support your body’s weight and help you move. Injuries, disease and aging can cause pain, stiffness and other problems with movement and function.

Detailed explanation-4: -Tendons-these are made of strong fibrous connective tissue and they connect muscles to bone. They appear as the long thin ends of the muscles. The Achilles tendon is the largest tendon in the body-it joins the calf muscle to the heel bone.
