Describe the structure and location on types of connective tissues
Answers
Answer:
1 Connective tissue proper--
1. Areolar tissue-
Location beneath the epidermis of skin.
Structure fine threads crossing each other in every direction leaving small spaces called areolae.
2. Adipose tissue
LocationThe adipose tissues are found in the subcutaneous tissue, around the heart, kidneys, eyeballs, mesenteries and omenta, where fat is store
Structure The adipose tissue consists of several spherical or oval adipose cells . Each adipose cell contains fat globules, due to which the nucleus and the cytoplasm are displaced to the periphery.
These cells are often called signet ring cells because they resemble a signet rang when seen in cross section. There are two types of adipose tissue: white (or yellow) fat and brown fat. White fat contains large adipose cells, each having a single large fat globule and hence, called monolocular.
3 Fibrous connective tissue
Tendons It consists of mainly white (collagen) fibres which are arranged in bundles. The fibroblasts are present in rows between the bundles.
Ligaments
This tissue is mainly made up of much thicker branched loose network of yellow fibres. The white fibres also occur but they are very fine. The fibroblasts are irregularly scattered. It also contains mast cells, macrophages and often some adipose cells.
Supportive connective tissue...
Cartilage
Location In tip of nose external ears and between the bones
Structure contains fluid it is non porous tissue thickened intercellular space it is semi transparent and elastic
Bones
*they are hard forest issues good supply of blood vessels and nerves it consists of both living cells called osteoblast and a rigid mass of inorganic salts
Fluid connective tissues
Blood
present in blood veins and arteries
the liquid part plasma and circular path of blood cells white blood cells and platelets
Lymph
it is a fluid surrounding the body cells it is initially the blood plasma that has caused out of the blood vessels it contains white blood cells and are not the RBCs
Answer:
Connective tissue ranges from avascular to highly vascular. Composition: Composed mainly of nonliving extracellular matrix that separates the cells of the tissue. Location: It is present in between different tissue and organs. It can be found in and around the body organs. skeletal tissue present in the form of bone and cartilage, and fluid connective tissue as blood and lymph are connective tissue.
