Solution

The correct option is C Dense regular connective tissue
Fibres and fibroblasts are compactly packed in the dense connective tissues. Orientation of fibres shows either a regular or irregular pattern, thus called as dense regular and dense irregular tissues respectively.
In the dense regular connective tissues, the collagen fibres are present in rows between many parallel bundles of fibres. Tendons, which attach skeletal muscles to bones and ligaments which attach one bone to another are examples of this type of connective tissue.
