No, cotton is not a better insulator than aluminum foil and tissue paper. Aluminum foil is a good insulator as it reflects heat, while tissue paper acts as a thermal barrier. Cotton, on the other hand, is not as effective of an insulator because it does not have the same reflective or thermal barrier properties.

Why is adipose tissue considered as good insulator?
adipose tissue consists of a droplet of fat. it store energy in the form of fat which keeps the body warm
An adaptation in seedless vascular plants that made them better suited to land than bryophytes is?
vascular tissue
Why does the hypodermis conserve heat to the body?
The hypodermis, the deepest layer of the skin, helps conserve heat to the body through its insulating properties. It contains a layer of adipose tissue, or fat, which acts as a thermal insulator, preventing heat from escaping the body. This adipose tissue also provides cushioning and protection to internal organs.
What is the function does it have adipose tissue in fats?
Adipose, or fat tissue serves two primary purposes to a body. Adipose is used to store energy, especially needed to when the body is in starvation modes. Second, adipose tissue serves as insulating tissue to help the body retain its critical heat.
What kind of tissue is transitional tissue?
Transitional tissue is a type of epithelial tissue.
Is a tissue insulator?
yeah
Name the animal tissue which acts as an insulator?
a tissue is not found
What keeps things colder aluminum plastic or toilet tissue?
Aluminum is worst, plastic better, and toilet tissue best at insulating things if the dimensions are "nominal" from one material to the other. Aluminum conducts heat very well, and it is a poor insulator. Plastic can conduct heat, but not as well as aluminum. Tissue, on the other hand, has a lot of "dead air spaces" within its structure. These trapped air places reduce heat movement by convection. And this makes tissue a better insulator than the other materials.
What type of connective tissue insulates against heat loss?
Adipose tissue (fat) acts as an insulator.
Is tissue paper a conductor or a insulator?
A piece of notebook paper is not a conductor it is an insulator
What is myelin a kind of?
It is a fatty tissue that acts as an insulator around some nerve fibers.
Why is adipose tissue considered as good insulator?

What structures make up a tissue?
Cotton (Or groups of cells)
How is a thermos made?
a themos is made in many parts. A first coat a insulator then the inside coat is filled with a substance called foam tissue a material that finds the mold of its insulator
Which connective tissue insulates against heat loss?
The Adipose Connective Tissue insulates against heat loss and provides reserve fuel.
Which layer of the skin protects the deeper tissues of the body and acts as a heat insulator?
Fat. also known as adipose tissue, is the connective tissue found in the subcutaneous layer that provides insulation.
How does tissue paper or cotton buds look after wiping your nose with it?
lovely
