The fibrous covering of a bone is called the periosteum.
The periosteum is the tough fibrous connective tissue covering of a bone that helps protect and nourish the bone. It also plays a role in bone repair following injury.
The tough outer covering of bone is called the periosteum. It is a dense connective tissue that protects the bone and plays a role in bone growth and repair.
Each kidney is held in place by connective tissue, called renal fascia, and is surrounded by a thick layer of adipose tissue, called perirenal fat, which helps to protect it. A tough, fibrous, connective tissue renal capsule closely envelopes each kidney and provides support for the soft tissue that is inside.
An example of a tough connective tissue is a tendon.
The outermost covering of the brain is called the dura mater. It is a tough membrane composed of dense irregular connective tissue that helps protect the brain and spinal cord. Adhering to the inside surface of the skull, the dura mater also forms partitions that divide the brain into compartments.
