Give the structural characteristics of connective tissue??
Answers
Structural elements of connective tissue: Connective tissues consist of three parts: cells suspended in a ground substance or matrix; and most have fibers running through it. Ground substance is a clear, colorless, viscous fluid that fills the space between the cells and fibers. ... Elastic fibers. Reticular fibers.

Answer:
Connective tissue provides support, binds together, and protects tissues and organs of the body.
Connective tissue consists of three main components: cells, protein fibers, and an amorphous ground substance. Together the fibers and ground substance make up the extracellular matrix. Whereas the other tissue types (epithelium, muscle, and nervous tissue) are largely made up of cells, the extracellular matrix is the major component of most connective tissue.
The three types of connective tissue fibers are:
Collagen fibers - most are type I collagen (most abundant protein in the body)
Tensile strength - resistance to stretching
Elastic fibers - contain elastin and fibrillin
Elasticity - can be stretched, yet still, return to its original length
Reticular fibers - contain type III collagen
Support - a network of thin fibers
