The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Dense Connective Tissue**: - Dense connective tissue is a type of connective tissue characterized by a high concentration of collagen fibers. 2. **Identifying the Main Functions**: - The primary functions of dense connective tissue include providing strength, support, and attachment between various structures in the body. 3. **Analyzing the Options**: - The question provides four options: - A) Storage of minerals - B) Forms stroma of organs - C) Reducing heat loss - D) Strong attachment between structures 4. **Evaluating Each Option**: - **A) Storage of minerals**: This is primarily a function of bone tissue, not dense connective tissue. - **B) Forms stroma of organs**: Stroma refers to the supportive tissue of an organ, which is not specifically the role of dense connective tissue. - **C) Reducing heat loss**: This function is related to vascular tissues and blood circulation, not dense connective tissue. - **D) Strong attachment between structures**: This is the correct function of dense connective tissue, as it connects muscles to bones (tendons) and bones to other bones (ligaments). 5. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, the main function of dense connective tissue is **strong attachment between structures**.
