Expert Solution
Introduction:
The most prevalent and evenly distributed tissue in an animal's body is connective tissue. Its purpose is to connect various tissues or organs and to sustain diverse animal body systems. There are three forms of connective tissue: specialised connective tissue, dense fibrous connective tissue, and loose connective tissue.
Fibroblast cells and fibers make up dense fibrous connective tissue, both of which are tightly packed in the matrix. It makes up the majority of tendons and ligaments. White fibrous connective tissue and yellow fibrous connective tissue are the two varieties of dense fibrous connective tissue.
