Solution

The correct option is D Bone
    • A matrix of connective tissue consisting of bundles of strong predominantly type I collagen fibers connecting periosteum(a dense layer of vascular connective tissue enveloping the bones except at the surfaces of the joints)to bone are called as Sharpey's fibers or bone fibers.
    • For example, attachment of the rotator cuff muscles to the blade of the scapula.
    • Hence Sharpey's fibers occur inside Bone.
    • So, the correct answer is 'Bone'.
