Study Notes
Dense Regular Connective Tissue
- Location: Forms ligaments, tendons, and aponeuroses.
- Function: Resists pulling forces at attachment points, providing strength and stability.
Dense Irregular Connective Tissue
- Location: Found primarily in the skin.
- Function: Resists pulling forces from various directions, preventing tearing of the skin when stretched.
Dense Elastic Connective Tissue
- Location: Found in lungs, trachea, bronchi, aorta, and other elastic arteries.
- Function: Allows respiratory organs to recoil after inhalation, assisting in pushing blood through the cardiovascular system.
Areolar Connective Tissue
- Location: Located under the skin, surrounding blood vessels, nerve bundles, muscles, and organs.
- Function: Connects skin to underlying muscles and protects/connects blood vessels, nerves, and muscles, providing structural support.
