Answer :

Answer:

periosteum ----> dense irregular connective tissue

Explanation:

  • The periosteum is a dense fibrous membrane that covers the surfaces of bones.

The periosteum consists of two layers-

    1. Outer fibrous layer

    2. Inner cellular layer

  • It is mainly composed of dense irregular connective tissue along with a layer of simple squamous epithelium.
  • The function of periosteum is to cover the surface of all the bones except those surfaces that are covered with cartilage such as joints and tendons and ligaments.
