Where is a fibroblast located?
A fibroblast is cell that makes scar tissue, and that can be anywhere in the body.
What is the most common type of tissue in the body?
muscle, nerve, connective and epithelial
The most common cells found in connective tissues are called?
Fibroblasts
What are four basic types of tissues in animals?
The four main types are epithelial, connective, muscular, and neural (nervous) tissue.These types are further subdivided. For example, there are three types of muscular tissue: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac.(see related link)
What is the function of simple epithelium tissue?
Tissues are groups of cells that lie together to accomplish a common function. There are four main types of tissues: epithelial, connective, muscular, and nervous. All of these tissues are found in our bodies, but epithelial tissue has a special function-- it must cover all the surfaces of the body. Therefore, it is found in our skin, and it is also found covering all the surfaces of the openings (each one is called a lumen) within our bodies.
What is organ tissue?
Organs are made of different tissues all working together for a common purpose. They can be made up of any combination of the four tissues; epithelial, muscular, nervous, and connective.
Where is a fibroblast located?
A fibroblast is cell that makes scar tissue, and that can be anywhere in the body.
What type of tissue covers the inner and outer surfaces of the internal organs?
Yes. A tissue is composed of similar cells that are specialized to perform a common function(s). Four adult primary types of tissues form the "fabric" of the human organism: 1. epithelial tissues (ET; covering/lining) 2. connective tissues (CT; support) 3. muscle tissues (MT; movement) 4. nervous tissues (NT; control).
What is the most common type of tissue in the body?
muscle, nerve, connective and epithelial
What are a group of of similar cell that that perform a common fuction?
Tissue (epithelial muscle nervous and connective)

Do All connective tissues arise from a common embryonic tissue?
True

Define animal tissue?
tissue |ˈti sh oō|noun1 any of the distinct types of material of which animals or plants are made, consisting of specialized cells and their products : inflammation is a reaction of living tissue to infection or injury ( tissues): the organs and tissues of the body.
Why are adipose blood and bones all considered to be connective tissues?
All connective tissue arise from mesenchyme, meaning they all come from a common origin.
What do specialized cells epithelial tissue connective tissue nervous tissue muscle tissue homeostasis and feedback inhibition have in common?
hi
