The main function of dense regular connective tissues is... --- correct
precise answer ---providing strong attachment between structures

Fibrocartilage
Name and briefly describe the two types of growth seen in cartilage. --
correct precise answer ---Growth of cartilage can be classified as
interstitial or appositional. In interstitial growth, the cartilage increases
rapidly in size due to the division of existing chondrocytes and the
continuous deposition of increasing amounts of matrix by the
chondrocytes. In appositional growth, activity of the cells in the inner
chondrogenic layer of the perichondrium leads to growth. Deeper
layers divide and cells mature resulting in the matrix accumulating
beneath the perichondrium on the outer surface of the cartilage
causing it to grow in width.
