College Objectives What is connective tissue Types of connective tissues Functions of connective tissues Relation of structure and function Tissues Four fundamental tissues are recognized Epithelial tissue. Connective Tissue. 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. Tissues (generic). Digital Laboratory. It’s best to view this in . Slide Show . mode, especially for the quizzes.. This module will take approximately 60 minutes to complete.. After completing this exercise, you should be able to:. The dense layer of the basal lamina of all epithelial tissue is created by connective tissue. . Connective tissue connects the epithelium to the rest of the body.. Three Basic Components. Specialized cells. Connective Tissue. Found everywhere in the body. Most abundant and widely distributed of the primary tissues. Major functions. :. Binding and support (bone and cartilage). Protection (bone and cartilage). CONNECTIVE TISSUE. Connective tissue is one of the basic tissues which gives structural and metabolic support to the organ and other tissue of the body.. It connects other tissues.. . * most abundant and widely distributed tissue. * functions:. binds structures together. supports and protects . fills spaces. produces blood cells. stores energy. provides immunity.

It connects other tissues.. . 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. VIBS 289. . . Larry Johnson Texas A&M University. Mast cell. Macrophage. Fibroblasts. Fibroblasts. Plasma cell. Fat cells. Function of Connective Tissue. A. General . Characteristics. 1. Connective tissues function to . bind structures, provide support and protect, serve as frameworks, fill spaces, store fat, produce blood cells, protect against infections, and help repair tissue damage.. connective tissue . is applied to a tissue which fills the interstices between more specialized element and serve to hold them together and support them , for these reason connective tissue also called support tissue. It consist of three component that is cells, . - 1 Four primary tissues of body — • Epithelial tissue • Connective tissue • Muscle tissue • Nervous tissue • connective tissue is one of most abundent and widely distributed tissue of Connective Tissue Lecture Objectives. List the functions of connective tissue. . Describe the structure, function, and appearance of collagen (types I, II, and III) and elastic fibers.. Explain what ground substance is and what it looks like..
