Presentation Transcript

  1. Dense Regular Tissue: Fibers run parallel Predominately collagen fibers Cells are fibroblast Have poor blood supply Makes up tendons, ligaments, and aponeuroses (fascia) Slow to heal Resists tension in one direction

  2. Dense regular connective tissue in tendon

  3. Collagenous fibers Fibroblast Dense regular connective tissue in tendon

  4. Tendons

  5. Dense Irregular Connective Tissue Fibroblasts are predominant cell type Collagen fibers run in all directions Resists tension in all directions Not as strong as Dense Regular Found in skin, organ capsules, periosteum, perichondrium

  6. Connective Tissue Types • Areolar connective tissue • Most widely distributed connective tissue • Soft, pliable tissue • Contains all fiber types • Can soak up excess fluid

  7. Areolar Tissue Elastic fiber Collagenous fiber
