Detailed explanation-2: -The type of protein fiber that is found in dense regular connective tissue is called collagen. This type of protein is arranged in a fiber, which gives this type of connective tissue its properties, such as its tensile strength. In dense regular connective tissue, these fibers are orientated parallel to each other.

Detailed explanation-3: -General connective tissue is either loose, or dense, depending on the arrangement of the fibres. The cells sit in a matrix made up of glycoproteins, fibrous proteins and glycosoaminoglycans, which have been secreted by the fibroblasts, and the major component of the matrix, is in fact, water.
