Best Answer

Epithelial, muscle, and nervous.

Disagree- the 3 subgroups are: loose, dense, and connective tissue with special properties. Subgroups within dense are: dense irregular, in which the extracellular fibers are interwoven in disordered fashion, and dense irregular, in which the extracellular fibers are in parallel bundles. Subgroups in the special properties connective tissue are named to indicate the identifying feature, such as mucous connective tissue, elastic connective tissue or reticular connective tissue.

What kind of tissue is the iris made of?

loose aereolar connective tissue. this connective tissue is made up of 3 connective tissue fibres, collagen, elastic and reticular fibres. it contains fibroblast (most abundant cell type in connective tissue, which produces ground substance and fibres of connective tissue), macrophages, mast cells and plasma cells. its function is to hold and trap fluid, wrap and cushion organs and is important in inflammation.

What is a connectve tissue?

Connective tissue, as it names suggests, has a 'connective' function. It supports and binds tissues in the body. There are three types of connective tissue. 1. Loose - most common. Collagen, elastic, reticular fibres. 2. Dense (or fibrous) - tendons and ligaments 3. Specialised - e.g. adipose (fat) tissue is a type of specialised loose connective tissue.
