Dense Connective Tissue: Irregular Connective Tissue Description: Same structural elements as regular, except bundles of collagen fibers are much thicker and arranged irregularly which allows for tension in many directions. Location: Capsules of visceral organs. Periostea and perichondria. Nerve and muscles sheaths. Dermis. Functions: Provides strength to resist forces applied from MANY directions.
Connective tissue fibers and matrix are synthesized by specialized cells called fibroblasts. There are three main groups of connective tissues: loose connective tissue, dense connective tissue, and specialized connective tissue. Loose Connective Tissue. In vertebrates, the most common type of connective tissue is loose connective tissue. It holds organs in place and attaches epithelial tissue to other underlying tissues. Loose connective tissue is named based on the weave and type of its constituent fibers. There are three main types: Collagenous fibers are made of collagen and consist of bundles of fibrils that are coils of collagen molecules. Elastic Fibers are made of the protein elastin and are stretchable.
