Dense regular connective tissue

Dense regular connective tissue forms tendons (seen here) and ligaments. These structures are composed of densely packed collagen bundles in parallel array. Aligned between the bundles are flattened, heterochromatic nuclei of fibroblasts. This construction ideally resists tension and maximally transmits force. Tendons connect muscle with bone; ligaments connect bone with bone. 400x, 400x
