Detailed explanation-1: -Tendons consist nearly exclusively of type I collagen fibers, all aligned along the length of the tendon to provide the tensile strength that is required to transmit forces from muscle to bone.
Detailed explanation-2: -So the correct answer is ‘Fibrous connective tissue’.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ligaments are made out of connective tissue that has a lot of strong collagen fibers in it. They are found in different shapes and sizes in the body.
Detailed explanation-4: -Ligaments are generally composed of ground substance, collagen (mainly type I and III collagen), and minimal elastin fibers.
Detailed explanation-5: -Type I collagen fibers are mainly present in the ECM of bone. Fibers are produced by osteoblasts and collagen synthesis occurs with both intrinsic and extrinsic pathways.
