Merocrine
|
products are secreted by exocytosis

|
Dense Connective Tissue Regular
|
attaches muscles to bones or to muscles, attaches bones to bones
withstands great tensile stress when pulling in one direction |
|
aponeuroses

Organization-blood clot is replaced with granulation tissue, fibroblasts produce collagen fibers to bridge the gap, debris is phagocytized, epithelium begins to regenerate
