Question

which type of tissue is composed of dense irregular connective tissue arranged in multiple layers in which the collagen fibers in one layer run in the same direction, while the fibers in other layers run in different directions? all the collagen fibers in one layer run in the same direction, while the fibers in other layers run in different directions. deep fascia superficial fascia subserous fascia serous membranes i dont know yet

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Deep fascia: Composed of dense irregular connective tissue with collagen fibers in layers (one layer same direction, others different), matching the description.
• Superficial fascia: Contains adipose and loose connective tissue, not dense irregular with layered fibers.
• Subserous fascia: Loose connective tissue, not dense irregular with layered fibers.
• Serous membranes: Epithelial and connective tissue (loose), not dense irregular with layered fibers.

Answer:

A. Deep fascia
