Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Dense connective tissue proper is composed of a higher density of fibers, which may be regular (with parallel fibers such as that of tendons and ligaments) or irregular (with multidirectional fibers such as that of the pericardium), or elastic (with significant embedded elastin such as that of arteries).
Detailed explanation-2: -Ligaments are dense connective tissue that connect bone to bone and provide stabilization to a joint. Though ligaments are functionally different from tendons as they connect bone to bone, they are structurally similar.
Detailed explanation-3: -Tendons and ligaments are made of dense regular connective tissue because they need a strong structure.
