Detailed explanation-1: -Tendons resist tension and do not stretch making them ideal for linking muscle to bone. Cartilage resists compression. Large blood vessels can withstand stretch and recoil in response to changes in blood pressure. All of these mechanical properties are mediated by connective tissue.
Detailed explanation-2: –Cartilage is able to withstand compressive, tensile, and shear loads.-By weight, hyaline cartilage consists of 10% to 30% collagen, 3% to 10% ground substance, and 60% to 80% water.-Superficially, the collagen fibers in hyaline cartilage are arranged in layers parallel to the articular surface.
Detailed explanation-3: -Figure 33.8. 1: Fibrous connective tissue: Fibrous connective tissue from the tendon has strands of collagen fibers lined up in parallel. This arrangement helps the tissue resist tension that occurs from all directions.
