this is biomedical homework, please adjust my answer:
Loose (areolar) CT
D.
Location: nose, fetal skeleton, ends of long bones
Function: movement, strength, flexibility
Matrix: thin collagen fibers
Adipose CT
B.
Location: shafts of long bones (femur)
Function: protection
Matrix: collagen and calcium salts
Dense regular CT
H.
Location: dermis of the skin
Function: support
Matrix: densely packed collagen fibers
Dense irregular CT
J.
Location: blood vessels and heart
Function: transport gases, hormones, immune function, blood clotting proteins
Matrix: plasma
Hyaline cartilage CT
E.
Location: disks of vertebrae, knee joint
Function: strength and support
Matrix: strong collagen fibers
Elastic cartilage CT
G.
Location: under skin
Function: elasticity
Matrix: collagen and elastic fibers
Fibrocartilage CT
F.
Location: primarily under skin, around organs

Explanation / Answer
Loose areolar CT- G) Location: Under skin. Function: elasticity. Matrix: collagen and elastic fibers.
Adipose CT- F) Location: primarily under skin, around organs. Function: insulation, protection, energy storage. Matrix: very little matrix and protein fibers present
Dense Irregular CT- H) Location: dermis of the skin. Function: support. Matrix: densely packed collagen fibers.
Dense regular CT- I) Location: tendon and ligaments. Function: connect muscle to bone(tendon), bone to bone(ligament). Matrix: densely packed, parallel collagen fibers.
Hyaline cartilage CT- D) Location: nose, fetal skeleton, ends of long bones. Function: movement, strength, flexibility. Matrix: thin collagen fibers.
Elastic cartilage CT- C) Location: outer ear. Function: elasticity/flexibility. Matrix: mainly elastic fibers.
Fibrocartilage CT- E) Location: disc of vertebrae, knee joint. Function: strength and support. Matrix: strong collagen fibers.
Compact bone CT- B) Location: shafts of long bone(femur).Function: protection. Matrix: collagen and calcium salts.
Blood- J) Location: blood vessels and heart. Function: transport gases, hormones, immune function, blood clotting proteins. Matrix: plasma.
