______________________________
* DENSE REGULAR CONNECTIVE TISSUE.

Tendon
=> Connect muscles to bone
Ligament
=> Connect two bones
______________________________
* ADIPOSE
______________________________
* SKELETAL
These are also two types.
Cartilage
=>Provide support and flexibility.
Bone
=> Support body, anchors muscles and support organs.
______________________________

Helps in transportation of materials and provide defence.
These are also of two types.
