Identify figures-I and II.
Figure I Figure II
Dense regular Dense irregular connective tissue, connective tissue
Loose irregular Loose regular connective tissue, connective tissue
Adipose tissue, Specialized connective tissue
Connective tissue Areolar tissue proper
Correct Answer :
A. Dense regular Dense irregular connective tissue, connective tissue
The figure I & II represent dense regular and dense irregular connective tissue respectively. In the dense regular connective tissues, the collagen fibres are present in rows between many parallel bundles of fibres. Tendons and ligaments are example of this tissue. Dense irregular connective tissue has fibroblasts and many fibres (mostly collagen) that are oriented differently. This tissue is present in the skin.
