Of the four major types of membranes, the one consisting of dense connective tissue overlying loose connective tissue is
A. serous membrane.
B. synovial membrane.
C. mucous membrane.
D. cutaneous membrane.
Answer:
The correct answer is option B. synovial membrane.
Explanation:
Synovial membranes are the connective tissue that is present within surrounding the joints that move freely such as elbow. These tissue membranes lack the epithelium layer in them.
These tissues are loose and thin in structure and coverings that protect tendons where they go through bony prominences. These tissues are consisting of dense irregular connective tissue present on top of the other loose tissues.
Thus, the correct answer is - option B. synovial tissue.
