Tissues that connect, separate and support all other types of tissues in the body
Connective tissue
Is a form of connective tissue in which the ground substance is abundant and of a firmly gelated consistency that endows this tissue with unusual rigidity and resistance to compression
Cartilage
Is a tough band of fibrous connective tissue that connects muscle to bone and is capable of withstanding tension
Tendon
Tough band of elastic tissue around your joints
Ligaments
