What distinguishes cartilage from connective tissue proper?
Cartilage is a form of connective tissue. But unlike other connective tissues, it does not contain blood cells, causing it to grow and repair slower than connective tissues with blood cells.
What are 5 examples of tissue?
Four adult primary types of tissues form the "fabric" of the human organism:1.epithelial tissues (covering/lining);2.connective tissues (support);3.muscle tissues (movement);4.nervous tissues (control).Plus: mesenchymal connective tissue, a type of undifferentiated loose connective tissue.
What are the four main types of tissue?
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).
Which is the function of connective tissue?
Just as the name implies, connective tissue connects other tissues together to hold them in place. It appears throughout the body. An example is the loose web-like tissue that holds the skin to the underlying fat and muscle, such as seen when pulling the skin off a piece of chicken.
When cells that are similar in structure and function join together they form?
Groups of similar cells working together for a similar function are called tissues. The four tissue types are; connective, nervous, epithelial, and muscular.tissuesTissues
What are the cells called that form skeletal connective tissues?
Fibroblasts.

How does blood make up connective tissues?
Blood does not make up connective tissue. Blood will coagulate and form clots though, but that is an entirely different story.

How many kinds of tissue are there?

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 function Glycoproteins?
Glycoproteins provide structural support to cells and help to form connective tissues such as collagen. It also plays a big role in reproduction.
Name these connective tissue coverings beginning with the finest and ending with the most coarse?
From finest to most coarse the connective tissues start with endomysium which are then covered by perimysium to form a bundle of fibers called a fascicle. Many fascicles are bounded by the connective tissue epimusium which can either be bound to form tendons or aponeursoses (and these attach the muscle indirectly to bones, cartilages, or connective tissue coverings.)
What tissue type functions in the formation of membranes and glands?
dense fibrous connective tissue
