General Characteristics of Epithelial Tissue
Cells tightly packed together; very little intercellular space
Therefore, avascular Free surface Basement membrane anchors to connective
tissue below Regenerates readily, if close to nutrient
source (if avascular, how does it get nourished?)

Protection Modified for excellent absorption Secretion Can distend, then return to original
shape/layers Fabulous for diffusion

product to free surface Sweat, oil, milk

Connective tissue (in general)
Cells far apart from each other Intercellular space filled with FIBERS &
MATRIX Vascular, with exceptions (dense regular &
cartilage) Protects, connects, binds, supports

Possible fibers in matrix
1. COLLAGEN: thick, white, tough, very strong
2. ELASTIC: thin, yellow, stretchy
3. RETICULAR: thin, delicate strands of collage; from delicate framework/web-like support

Which connective tissue?
Universal glue; contains all 3 fibers; watery-gel matrix
Hard matrix made of calcium salts Parallel bundles of collagen; tendons &
ligaments Rubbery matrix; glassy appearance;
connects ribs to breastplate Fluid matrix

More connective tissues
Thick, cushion; shock absorber; intervertebral disks
Delicate framework supporting lymph nodes and bone marrow
Strong; interwoven collagen fibers; vascular; dermis of skin
Fat cells are dominant in this specialized areolar tissue
![Page 12: Anatomy & Physiology Tissue Review October 2012. General Characteristics of Epithelial Tissue](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070408/56649e6f5503460f94b6ccbb/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Compare dense regular & dense irregular fibrous conn.
REGULAR Parallel bundles of
collagen, tightly packed Avascular Forms tendons &
ligaments
• IRREGULAR• Interwoven mesh of
collagen fibers; lots more space
• Vascular• Forms dermis of the
skin

Loose (areolar) tissue, bone, cartilage, and blood are different types of connective tissue. Explain why their physical characteristics differ so much.
What is the function of fibroblasts? Name the major types of cartilage. Describe
their differences and similarities.

Joints such as the elbow, shoulder, and knee contain considerable amounts of cartilage and fibrous connective tissue. How does this relate to the fact that joint injuries are often very slow to heal?
A group of disorders called collagenous diseases are characterized by deterioration of connective tissues. Why would you expect such diseases to produce widely varying symptoms.
