Connective Connective TissueTissue

One of the most widespread tissues in the body. It connects, supports, transports, and defends.

Loose Ordinary FibrousLoose Ordinary Fibrous

• Also known as areolar tissue, is soft thick gel mainly because it contains hyaluronic acid

• It contains numerous fibers and cells, typically collagenous and elastic fibers

• Other kinds of cells in the loose, ordinary tissue are usually white blood cells (leukocytes)

AdiposeAdipose• Forms supporting, protective pads

around the kidneys and various structures.

• Constitutes a storage depot for excess food

• Acts as a insulating material to conserve body heat

ReticularReticular

• Reticular tissue forms the framework of the spleen, lymph nodes, and bone marrow

• It functions as the body’s complex mechanism, by defending itself against microorganisms and injurious substances

Dense Regular FibrousDense Regular Fibrous• Predominantly

bundles of collagenous fibers and is flexible but also owns malleable strength

• Characteristics are required in structures that anchor muscle to bone, such as tendons

Dense irregular FibrousDense irregular Fibrous

• The bundles of the fibers are not arranged in parallel rows

• Fibers are intertwine to form a thick at strong connective tissue that withstand stresses applied from any direction

BoneBone

• Osseous tissue one of the most highly specialized forms of connective tissue

• Organs in the skeletal system, that provide support and protection for the body and serve as points

Hyaline CartilageHyaline Cartilage

• Low amount of collagen in the matrix • The most prevalent type of cartilage,

that is found to support rings of the respiratory tubes and covering the ends of bones

FibrocartilageFibrocartilage

• The strongest and most durable cartilage, the matrix is rigid and is filled with dense packing of strong white collagen fibers

Elastic CartilageElastic Cartilage

• Contains few collagens fibers but large numbers of fine elastic fibers

• This type of cartilage can be ear found in the external and voice box (larynx)

BloodBlood

• Connective tissue in liquid form that contains neither ground substance or fibers

• It performs many body transport functions, including movement of respiratory gases such as O and ₂CO , nutrients, and waste products.₂

Muscle Muscle Skeletal: a skeletal muscle cell has several Skeletal: a skeletal muscle cell has several

characteristics that permit them to function as they do, characteristics that permit them to function as they do, like excitability irritability which means the skeletal like excitability irritability which means the skeletal muscles respond to regulatory mechanisms such as muscles respond to regulatory mechanisms such as

nerve signals. Skeletal muscle are composed of nerve signals. Skeletal muscle are composed of bundles of skeletal muscle fibers that generally extend bundles of skeletal muscle fibers that generally extend

the entire length of the muscle.the entire length of the muscle.

NervousNervousNervous tissue is responsible for sensing stimuli and transmitting signals to and from different parts of an organism. Neurons consist of three principal parts: the soma, dendrites, and one axon or nerve fiber. The soma contains the nucleus. Extending from the soma are dendrites that receive information and transmit it towards the soma and one axon that transmits information away from the soma. Neuroglial cells support neurons. They are smaller and more numerous than neurons.

Key Terms:

Axons - typically carry signals away from the cell body.Dendrites - typically carry signals toward the cell body.
