Association fibers are bundles of axons within the brain that unite different parts of the same cerebral hemisphere.In human neuroanatomy, bundles of axons within the brain, called fibers, can be categorized by their function into association fibers, projection fibers, and commissural fibers.n human neuroanatomy, bundles of axons within the brain, called fibers, can be categorized by their function into association fibers, projection fibers, and commissural fibers.
Fibers in the matrix provide strength. Three types of fibers are found in the connective tissue matrix: collagen, elastic and reticular. 1  Collagen fibers (white fibers): are extremely tough.2  They are stronger than steel fibers of the same size. 3  They provide high tensile strength, which is the ability to resist longitudinal stress. Connective tissue fibers form capsules and membranes which surround organs, and form ligaments and tendons which bind bones to each other or to muscles. 2  They also form the 3-dimensional fibrous mesh which supports cells inside large soft organs such as the liver and spleen. 3  Bone and cartilage support body organs.
