Describe the role of areolar and collagenous connective tissue in the dermis.
The areolar connective tissue is a loose connective tissue. Its fibers are far enough to leave ample space for interstitial fluid in between. It provides strngth to the dermis as well as flexibility and cushioning. The areolar connective tissue provides water and salt to surrounding tissues. It helps attach epithelial tisssue to other underlying tissues.
The areolar connective tissue contains fibroblasts, white blood cells, and mast cells. It also contains collagen fibers, elastic fibers and reticular fibers. The collagen fibers are the thickest of fibers within the areolar connective tissue. The collagen fibers are responsible for providing the dermis with high tensile strength. As a result the dermis can stretch without tearing.
Describe the role of areolar and collagenous connective tissue in the dermis.

Dense Irregular Connective Tissue 1 Examine a slide of thick skin under low power. In Activity 5.1, you observed the epidermis. Locate this layer again and identify the type of epithelium. 2 Directly below the epidermis is the dermis of the skin. The deep region of the dermis is composed of dense irregular connective tissue. This type of connective tissue consists mostly of collagen fibers, although elastic and reticular fibers are also present. How does the arrangement of the fibers...
Which of the following is not associated with fibrous connective tissue? a. Adipose tissue b. Reticular and areolar fibers c. Hyaline cartilage d. Tendons and ligaments You are examining muscle tissue and you notice that each muscle fiber is striated, branched, and contains a single nucleus. What type of muscle tissue is this? a. Skeletal b. Simple cuboidal c. Smooth d. Cardiac
