Connective tissue
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.
Fibrous connective tissue is known as matrix. Matrix helps to connect joints and enables movement of the joints. If this becomes damaged, the joint or limb may become unusable.
Connective tissue, specifically fibrous connective tissue, plays a key role in ensuring this phenomenon. Fibrous connective tissue provides the strength and support needed for tissues and organs to resist tension and stretching. Examples include ligaments and tendons that connect bones and muscles in the body.
Actually, the hardest connective tissue in the body is not white fibrous tissue, but rather bone tissue. Bone is highly mineralized, primarily composed of calcium phosphate, which gives it strength and rigidity. White fibrous connective tissue, which includes tendons and ligaments, is strong but more flexible compared to bone. Its primary component is collagen, which provides tensile strength but does not match the hardness of bone.
connective tissue
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.
Ligaments are the fibrous connective tissue that holds bones in a joint together.
A fibrous joint is a structural classification where bones are joined by fibrous connective tissue. Examples of fibrous joints include sutures in the skull and syndesmoses in the distal tibiofibular joint.
The fibrous connective tissue joining the tooth to the tooth socket is the periodontal ligament.

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.
The diaphysis is covered and protected by a fibrous connective tissue membrane, the periosteum.
