what are various types of connective tissues? where are they found?
Answers
Explanation:
Loose connective tissue holds organs in place and attaches epithelial tissue to other underlying tissues.
Dense connective tissue helps attach muscles to bones and link bones together at joints.
Specialized connective tissue encompasses a number of different tissues with specialized cells and unique ground substances. Some are solid and strong, while others are fluid and flexible. Examples include adipose, cartilage, bone, blood, and lymph.
The ground substance acts as a fluid matrix that suspends the cells and fibers within the particular connective tissue type. Connective tissue fibers and matrix are synthesized by specialized cells called fibroblasts. There are three main groups of connective tissues: loose connective tissue, dense connective tissue, and specialized connective tissue.
