Question

why is blood called connective tissue?

Answer 1

Blood is considered a connective tissue for two basic reasons: (1) embryologically, it has the same origin (mesodermal) as do the other connective tissue types and (2) blood connects the body systems together bringing the needed oxygen, nutrients, hormones and other signaling molecules, and removing the wastes.

Blood is a connective tissue because....

Connective tissues have cells scattered throughout an extracellular matrix. They connect different body systems.

Blood is considered as a type of connective tissue because of two reasons.

➛Like the other connective tissues, blood is mesodermal in origin.

➛ It connects the body systems, transports oxygen and nutrients to all the parts of the body, and removes the waste products. Blood has an extra-cellular matrix called plasma, with red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets floating in it.

➨A blood cell also called a hematocyte is a cell produced by haematopoiesis and normally found in blood.

➨In mammals, these fall into three general categories: red blood cells or erythrocytes; white blood cells or leukocytes; platelets or thrombocytes.

➨Together, these three kinds of blood cells add up to a total 45% of the blood tissue by volume, with the remaining 55% of the volume composed of plasma, the liquid component of blood.
