25
Collagen bundle fibers are randomly oriented
→ DENSE IRREGULAR CT
26
▪ Collagen fibers are oriented parallel to one another or in ordered arrangement
DENSE REGULAR CT
27
Reticular dermis of the skin
DENSE IRREGULAR CT
28

Loose Connective Tissue
40
Loose Connective Tissue TWO TYPES
AREOLAR; RETICULAR
41
Cells = Ground Substance = Fibers
→ AREOLAR
42
Cells >>> Ground substance = Fibers
RETICULAR
43
contains fibers, ground substances, and cells in roughly equal parts
AREOLAR
44
forms the stroma of the bone marrow, and soft organs
RETICULAR
45
found underneath the epithelium
AREOLAR
46
Lamina propria of the digestive tract
AREOLAR
47
Surrounds blood vessels and nerves
