Bones are made up of a collagen matrix with very few cells in mature animals. Same for tendons and ligaments. Skin is also the same thing, collagen and very few cells. Fibroblasts of different types lay down different types of collagen. Collagen is not a cell. The liver is primarily collagen. The only tissue that I can think of that is not primarly collagen with a few cells in it is muscle tissue which is made up of cells. I don't have any pictures of what skin looks like under a scope at work. If you don't believe me I will post a picture of it. Cells do not make up the majority of tissue besides muscle tissue. You ever examined it under a scope? I have, have a paper in route to publication about human scar tissue.
