Attachments of Skeletal Muscle Tendons cordlike structures Mostly collagen fibers Attach muscle belly to bone Figure 61 Label your drawing Connective Tissue Wrappings amp Attachments . 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. KEEPING THE BODY TOGETHER. Functions of connective tissue:. Interconnection of tissues. Support and motion. Storage. Cushioning and insulation. Enclosing and separating. Transport. protection. Characteristics of connective tissue. 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.. . CONNECTIVE TISSUE. I. t is a type of tissue that connect and support other body tissues, also called supporting tissue.. CLASSIFOCATION:. Classified on the basis of following four criteria. Relative proportion of various fibers. Most . common. Well . supplied with blood. . . (tendons and ligaments) . Made . up of . many types of cells and . extracellular matrix. . Extracellular matrix. Produced by the connective tissue . cells. 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”.. 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.. . College.
