Tendons and ligaments must withstand tension along the axis of their fibers These structures are composed of?

Connective tissue.
Why are tendons epithelial tissue and ligaments avascular What are the advantages of this tissue being avascualr?
tendons are not made of epithelial tissue, they are made of connective tissue.Epithelial tissue secretes via ducted or ductless glands.Ligaments are also composed of connective tissue. Any tissue that "connects structures" are generally composed of connective tissue.Ligaments connect bone to bone and there is a debate about the avascularity of ligaments.
Tendons and ligaments?
Tendons are connective tissues that are seen at sites where a muscle is connected to a bone. Ligaments are stronger connective tissues that connect bones to other bones.
What connective tissue holds together movable joints?
ligaments and tendons
Are tendons made up of dense irregular connective tissue?
Yes. An example is in the dermis, which is very vascular. Dense regular connective tissue is not, however (consists of tendons and ligaments). The other kind of CT that is not vascular is cartilage. Source: medical school lectures
What kind of tissues are Cartilage fat tendons ligaments?
Cartilage, fat, tendons, and ligaments are all types of connective tissue.
Why is dense irregular connective tissue not the type found in tendons and ligaments?
Dense irregular connective tissue are not the type found in tendon and ligament because tendon and ligament type of connective tissue binds bones tightly to other bones in one direction and dense irregular connective tissue are not necessarily binding tissues..
What does do connective tissue do?
Dense regular connective tissue is commonly referred to as fascia. It consists of mostly tendons and ligaments. The tendons attach muscle to bone and ligaments attach bone to bone.
