The loose connective tissue is a type of connective tissue which consists of a number of cell types embedded in a matrix. It contains a large amount of ground substance. The fibers are arranged in the loose connective tissue in loose irregular manner. They are responsible for binding various structures together like muscle fibers to muscle fibers and skin to underlying tissues. It also surrounds blood vessels and nerves. Fibroblast cells are more common in loose connective tissue. The loose connective tissue has three types of fibers namely, collagenous fibers, elastic fibers, and reticular fibers. Loose connective tissue includes areolar tissue, reticular tissue, and adipose tissue. The key difference between Areolar and Adipose Tissue is, areolar tissue fills inside space of organs and supports internal organs. On the other hand, the adipose tissue acts as a fat (energy) reservoir and an insulator of heat.
