Areolar Connective Tissue
|
-Found throughout body where protective cushioning and flexibility are needed (organs and tissue)
-Beneath the dermis -layer of loosely arranged connective tissue fibers which attach the skin to muscle -Permits the formation of a thick layer of fat between the skin and muscle -If Areolar Connective Tissue is not present skin will adhere to bone and fat will not form |
|
Adipose tissue
|
-Fat
-Accumulates fat overtime -Tissue is found in various sites -helps cushion joints and some organs -a person is born with certain number of fat cells (adipocytes) -Fat cells store triglycerides |
|
Cartilage

|
-Mixture of cartilage substances and elastic fibers
-Forms external ear, larynx -flexible |
|
Fribro Cartilage
|
-Mixture of cartilage and collagenous fibers
-Forms semi-elastic cushion of great strength -intervertebral discs found between the bodies of adjacent vertebrae |
|
Bone
|
-Most rigid connective tissue
