Connective Tissue

Connective Tissue

1. Loose connective tissue, Dense connective tissue, Cartilage connective tissue, Bone, Blood, and Liquid connective tissue

   • loose connective tissue -
     • Aerolar, Adipose, Reticular
       • Areolar - it located between the organs It provides padding allows for a considerable amount of independent movement - widely distributed throughout the body.
     • Adipose - its located under the skin around the kidney's and eyes, it provides food fuel and supports and protects organs
     • Reticular- it's located in the spleen and bone marrow, the internal the skeleton that supports another cell types
   • Blood - It locates in the body and systems, also delivers oxygen and nutrients
   • Bone: Osseous tissue, supports, protects, and allows movement
     • Its a skeleton houses yellow bone marrow, which stores triglycerides
   • Dense connective tissue - Regular, Irregular, Elastic
     • Regular - it's located in the tendons, ligaments, and liver, it also provides firm attachment, conducts pull of muscles, reduces friction between muscles
     • Irregular- located in the scars and capsule of kidneys, it provides strength to resist forces applied from may directions
     • Elastic- located in the tendons attach to the skeletal bones, it allows the ligament to return to its original length after stretching
   • Cartilage - hyaline, Fibrocartilage, Elastic
     • Hyaline - located around the surface bones covering the articular, it provides stiff but somewhat flexible support
     • Fibrocartilage - found in the pads of the knee joint, between pubic bones of the pelvis, it prevents bone to bone contact:limits relative movements
     • Elastic - this one is mostly found in the outer ea, it channels waves towards the inner ears
   • Liquid connective tissue - Blood- matrix is plasma, Lymph - matrix is lymph similar to plasma but with much less protein
