Reticular, Elastin, Collagen

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Collagen fibers are the strongest and thickest fibers. Elastin fibers are thinner fibers which can stretch and recoil. Reticular fibers, on the other hand, are highly branched delicate fibers found in organs that have lots of mesh-like structures.
Detailed explanation-2: -Types of Collagen Fibers. There are four main types of collagen fibers, and other types as well. You hang onto climbing bars using Type I collagen fibers in tendons and ligaments, the strongest and most fibrous type.
Detailed explanation-3: -This experimental finding was supported by the optimizations, which found that the modulus of the elastic fibers was a full order of magnitude lower than that of the collagen fibers (Table 4).
