Fibrous Connective Tissue - 4 General types (4)
1) Loose
2) Dense
3) Elastic
Fibrous Connective Tissue - 4 General types - Loose (2)
1) Not organized
2) Think Fascia surrounding internal organs and muscles
Fibrous Connective Tissue - 4 General types - Dense (2)
1) Highly organized
2) Tendons, Ligaments
Fibrous Connective Tissue - 4 General types - Elastic (2)
1) Change shape regularly
2) Tissues surrounding stomach/bladder
Fibrous Connective Tissue Dense Tissue two types (2)
1) Regular Dense Connective Tissue
2) Irregular Dense Connective Tissue
Fibrous Connective Tissue Dense Tissue two types - Irregular Dense Connective Tissues (3)
1) Irregular arranged collagen & elastic
2) Withstands tensions and pull
3) E.g: Skin
Fibrous Connective Tissue Dense Tissue two types - Regular Dense Connective Tissues (3)
1) Parallel Collagen Fibres
2 Muscle to bone attatchment
3) E.g. Tendont, ligament
Specialized Connective Tissues Serve Special Functions (4)

2) Blood
3) Cartilage
4) Adipose Tissue
Fibrous Connective Tissue Dense Tissue two types - Regular Dense Connective Tissues - Bone
Forms the skeleton
Fibrous Connective Tissue Dense Tissue two types - Regular Dense Connective Tissues - Blood
Transforms glucose and oxygen
Fibrous Connective Tissue Dense Tissue two types - Regular Dense Connective Tissues - Cartilage (3)
1) Transitions tissue from which bone develops
2) Maintains the integrity of certain body parts - nose
3) Cushion vertebrate
Fibrous Connective Tissue Dense Tissue two types - Regular Dense Connective Tissues - Adipose Tissue:
1) Fat cells
2) Functions in insulation, protection, and energy storage
Muscle tissue is …..
Contractile
What three muscle tissues contractile
1) Skeleton muscles - many nuclei
