Dense irregular connective tissue

Dense irregular connective tissue has irregularly arranged, thick, interwoven collagen bundles and fibers. The fibroblasts are mostly inactive and have little cytoplasm. Dense connective tissue contains fewer cells and less ground substance than does loose connective tissue. Dense irregular connective tissue is found in areas where multidirectional strength is needed. 400x
