Ligaments are the fibrous connective tissue that holds bones in a joint together.
There is no fibrous connective tissue in bone, but there is dense irregular tissue known as periosteum that covers bones (all except the articulating surfaces) and provides attachment sites for tendons and ligaments.
Basement membrane is another name for the fibrous connective tissue found in simple cuboidal epithelium. It provides structural support and helps anchor the epithelial cells to the underlying connective tissue.
the extracellular matrix. It contains a gel-like ground substance and protein fibers. connective tissues have a lot of extracellular matrix compared to epithelial tissues that have very little.
The structural classifications of joints are fibrous joints, cartilaginous joints, and synovial joints. Fibrous joints are held together by fibrous connective tissue, cartilaginous joints are connected by cartilage, and synovial joints are enclosed by a joint capsule filled with synovial fluid.
The synovial membrane consists of fibrous connective tissue overlying loose connective tissue. It lines joint cavities and produces synovial fluid to lubricate and cushion the joint surfaces.

The epineurium is the outermost layer of connective tissue surrounding a nerve. In the case of the fibrous sheath, the epineurium refers to the thick layer of dense connective tissue that surrounds and protects the entire nerve bundle, providing structural support and protection.

No, fibrous connective tissue is not capable of contracting. It primarily provides structural support and strength to various tissues and organs in the body. Its main components, such as collagen and elastin fibers, allow it to resist stretching and provide stability, but they do not possess the contractile properties found in muscle tissue.
The fibrous connective tissue joining the tooth to the tooth socket is the periodontal ligament.
