Skeletal muscle is the type attached to bones.
What else can I help you with?
What type of connective tissue attaches muscle and bone?
Dense connective tissue
Is endomysium a dense connective tissue that surrounds muscle fascicles?
No, endomysium is not a dense connective tissue; it is a thin layer of connective tissue that surrounds individual muscle fibers (muscle cells) within a muscle fascicle. The endomysium is composed of areolar connective tissue, which provides support and nourishment to the muscle fibers. In contrast, perimysium is the connective tissue that surrounds muscle fascicles.
What are the 3 major groups of connective tissue?
Epithelial, muscle, and nervous. Disagree- the 3 subgroups are: loose, dense, and connective tissue with special properties. Subgroups within dense are: dense irregular, in which the extracellular fibers are interwoven in disordered fashion, and dense irregular, in which the extracellular fibers are in parallel bundles. Subgroups in the special properties connective tissue are named to indicate the identifying feature, such as mucous connective tissue, elastic connective tissue or reticular connective tissue.
Which of these refers to the dense connective tissue that surrounds a muscle and blends with the tendon?
The term you are looking for is "epimysium," which refers to the dense connective tissue that surrounds a muscle and blends with the tendon, providing support and protection to the muscle fibers.
Dense connective tissue is to a suture as a periodontal ligament is to a?
The periodontal ligament is to a tooth as the dense connective tissue is to a suture. The periodontal ligament attaches the tooth to the surrounding bone and acts as a shock absorber during chewing, similar to how dense connective tissue stabilizes and supports the sutures between skull bones.
What dense irregular connective tissue that covers the adipose capsule and attaches the kidney to the abdominal wall?
Renal fascia
What is a broad flattened dense connective tissue?
A broad, flattened, dense connective tissue is known as a tendon. Tendons are tough bands of fibrous tissue that connect muscle to bone, providing support and transmitting the force generated by the muscle to the bone to produce movement.
Which connective tissue make up tendon and ligaments?
fibrocartilageThey are fibrous dense connective tissue.Collagen is the most common component of tendons and ligaments.Connective tissue.Dense regular collagenousFibrous connective tissue and they are comprised mainly of collagen. They are also similar in composition to fasciae which connect muscle to muscle.
What are the types of dense connective tissues?
a. loose connective tissue 1. aerolalar connective tissue 2.adipose tissue 3.retigular connective tissue b. Dense connective tissue 1.dense irregular connective tissue 2.dense regular connective tissue 3.elastic connective tissue
What type of dense regular connective tissue connects the skin to the underlying skeletal muscle?
Fascia
How do you tell the difference between dense regular connective tissue and smooth muscle tissue when looking at slides?
The main differences between the two are that when you look at smooth muscle you can see the actual muscle cells with the nucleus within it. In dense regular connective tissue, there are no cells visible, instead you see striations and collagen fibers.
Which connective tissues are branched?
Dense irregular connective tissue and cardiac muscle tissue are examples of branched connective tissues. The branching of the fibers in these tissues provides strength and support for various organs and structures in the body.
