Dr Iram Tassaduq. ‘Connective tissue’ is the term traditionally applied to a basic type of tissue of mesodermal origin which provides structural and metabolic support for other tissues and organs throughout the body, also known as “Supporting tissue”.. 4-. 2. Tissue Level of Organization. The classification of tissue types is based on the structure of cells; the composition of noncellular substance surrounding cells (extracellular matrix) and the functions of the cells.. Form metabolic and structural connections between other tissues… nutrition and support. Forms a protective sheath around organs and helps insulate the body…cushion. Acts as a reserve for energy…storage. General Characteristics. Does have blood vessels- . variations in blood supply (ligaments and tendons don’t heal as fast because they are poorly vascularized). Cartilage is avascular –no blood supply- heals very slowly. 4-. 2. Tissue Level of Organization.
