Topic;
Connective Tissue
CONNECTIVE TISSUE
o Consists of living cells surrounded by a matrix
o Type of fiber and the amount of fibers in the matrix determines the different types
Connective tissue
o Denseo Collagen fibers main element
in matrixo Fibroblastso Forms strong rope like
structures o Found in tendons, and
ligamentso Makes up dermis
o Looseo Has more cells and less fiberso Supports epithelial tissue,
organs, blood vessels
Connective tissue cells
o Fibroblastso Macrophageso Mast cellso Adipocytes
TYPES OF CONNECTIVE TISSUE
o AREOLAR TISSUEo ADIPOSE TISSUEo RETICULAR CONNECTIVE TISSUEo BLOODo BONE
AREOLAR TISSUE
o Most widely distributed connective tissue
o mostly watero universal packing
material between other tissues
o wraps small blood vessels and nerves
ADIPOSE TISSUE
o Stores body fato Insulationo Organ
protectiono Found beneath
the skin – subcutaneous
Reticular tissue
o Delicate network of interwoven reticular fibers
o Also called lymphoid tissue
o Found in lymph nodes, spleen, and bone marrow
o Produce all blood cells
BLOOD
o A typical connective tissue
o Transportation system
o Plasma is the matrix
o Fibers are soluble proteins
BONE
o Rigid o Protectiono Supporto Matrix 2 types :
compact , spongy
