What is areolar and adipose tissue. Which type of tissue ?
Answers
Answer:
Loose connective tissue is a category of connective tissue which includes areolar tissue, reticular tissue, and adipose tissue. Loose connective tissue is the most common type of connective tissue in vertebrates. It holds organs in place and attaches epithelial tissue to other underlying tissues.
Your answer:
◉ Areolar Tissue:
It is most widely spread, occuring beneath the epidermis of skin. It makes the skin elastic and helps it to withstand pulling strain. It is also called packing tissue.
◉Adipose Tissue:
Fatty tissue forming padding under the skin. It has specialised cells which store fat. This tissue forms padding under the skin and around kidneys, eyeball, etc. Padding under skin acts as an insulation retaining body heat.
They both are fibrous connective tissue ✓
◉Fibrous Connective Tissue:
It is made up of elongated cells which are referred to as fibres. The fibres are strong and bundled together by Areolar Tissue. They form the "Tendons" which connects muscle to bone and "Ligaments" which connects bone to bone and hold them in position.
