tendons
connective tissue can be broadly subdivided into connective tissue proper, and special connective tissue. connective tissue proper consists of loose connective tissue and dense connective tissue (which is further subdivided into dense regular and dense irregular connective tissues.) loose and dense connective tissue are distinguished by the ratio of ground substance to fibrous tissue. loose connective tissue has much more ground substance and a relative lack of fibrous tissue, while the reverse is true of dense connective tissue. dense regular connective tissue, found in structures such as tendons and ligaments, is characterized by collagen fibers arranged in an orderly parallel fashion, giving it tensile strength in one direction. dense irregular connective tissue provides strength in multiple directions by its dense bundles of fibers arranged in all directions.

dense regular connective tissue provides connection between different tissues in the human body. the collagen fibers in dense regular connective tissue are bundled in a parallel fashion. dense regular connective tissue (drct) is divided into white fibrous connective tissue and yellow fibrous connective tissue, both of which occur in two forms: cord arrangement and sheath arrangement.
