Fibrous connective tissue overlying loose connective tissue is?

∙ 13y ago
The deeper part of the dermis of the skin.
Basically, this part of the dermis has dense or fibrous irregular conective tissue, which provides strength to the skin. Below this tissue there is loose connective tissue (areolar connective tissue and adipose tissue) that are part of the subcutaneous layer of the skin.
As you know, the dermis is part of the cutaneous membrane.

How do loose and connective tissue differ?
Loose Connective Tissue consists of a lot of ground substance and it has all 3 types of protein fibers. Dense Connective Tissue on the other hand has little ground substance, few cells, and although it has most protein fibers it mainly consists of collagen fibers.
Tendons are composed of what tissue?
There are many types of connective tissues. They all have a matrix of extracellular material and they all have cells that excrete the matrix. Tendons and ligaments are dense connective tissues, loose connective tissue tends to be found around organs. Blood and bone are also considered connective tissues.
What kind of tissues make up your skin?
The tissue that makes up most of your skin is Epithelial tissue.
What tissue contains jellylike intercellular material?
loose connective tissue
Does areolar or loose connective tissue lacks nucleated cells?
Areolar connective tissue contains various types of cells, including nucleated cells such as fibroblasts and immune cells. However, loose connective tissue is a broader term that encompasses various types of connective tissues, some of which may not contain nucleated cells. Examples of loose connective tissues without nucleated cells include adipose tissue (which primarily consists of fat cells) and cartilage.
Which one of the four major types of membranes consists of fibrous connective tissue overlying loose connective tissue?
Mucous membrane
Tissue that provides support and connects body parts?
The group of tissue with the two types, soft and hard tissue, is connective tissue. Loose connective tissue and fibrous connective tissue hold your body parts together.

What layer of the epidermis contains protein fibres?
No, there is not dense connective tissue in the epidermis. There is loose connective tissue right below the epidermis (areolar connective tissue).
What is the connective tissue that holds organs together?
The internal organs are held in place by the messentaries and the greater and lesser omentums.
What type of tissue makes up of the integumentary system?
The epidermis consists of stratified squamous epithelium. The dermis consists of fibrous connective tissue. The hypodermis consists of loose connective tissue and adipose tissue.
What is a connectve tissue?
Connective tissue, as it names suggests, has a 'connective' function. It supports and binds tissues in the body. There are three types of connective tissue. 1. Loose - most common. Collagen, elastic, reticular fibres. 2. Dense (or fibrous) - tendons and ligaments 3. Specialised - e.g. adipose (fat) tissue is a type of specialised loose connective tissue.
Is collagen and connective tissue the same?
Technically they are the same. Fibrous connective tissue is basically any kind of connective tissue different than adipose and areolar. The fibrous connective tissue has more fibroblast and collagen fiber (a characteristic of dense connective tissue) but no much of elastic fibers (which is the histological difference with cartilage). Of course, we have to exclude blood, lymph and bones from the fibrous tissues because they are specialized connective tissue and have totally different characteristics than dense and loose connective tissue.
What connective tissue has a jelly like matrix?
Blood is a connective tissue that has a liquid matrix.
Tendons are composed of what tissue?
There are many types of connective tissues. They all have a matrix of extracellular material and they all have cells that excrete the matrix. Tendons and ligaments are dense connective tissues, loose connective tissue tends to be found around organs. Blood and bone are also considered connective tissues.
The least specialized connective tissue in the adult body is?
loose connective tissue
Is blood considered to be loose connective tissue or circulating connective tissue?
Circulating
