Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Regular Dense Connective Tissue seems to be a majority ____
A
Collagen Fibers
B
Reticular Fibers
C
Elastic Fibers
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Collagen fibers are arranged in dense regular connective tissue because: These fibers are found in several rows between various parallel bundles of fibers. This arrangement of fibers provides good resistance and also gives the ability to stretch. This arrangement provides good tensile strength to the tissue.

Detailed explanation-2: -Fibrous connective tissue type of connective tissue with a high concentration of fibers. Fibrous connective tissue or dense connective tissue has most fibers as it is made up of bundle of collagen fibers present parallel . These are present in tendons, ligaments, and dermis.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fibroblast cells generate collagen fibers for the connective tissue. The dense connective tissues function not only to hold the organs together but to transmit the forces over a long distance.

Detailed explanation-4: -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.
