What type of tissue binds and supports other tissues?
What tissue gives support to the body?
Which type of tissue binds together and supports other tissues and organs?
Connective tissue
What are tissues that bind and support other tissues called?
"connective tissue": adipose, cartilage, blood, various dense & loose connective tissues
Why would areolar tissue be considered the prototype for connective tissue proper?
All of the cell types found in other forms of connective tissue proper can be found in areolar tissue.
The connective tissue cell responsible for the synthesis and secretion of connective tissue fibers is?
Fibroblasts are the most common resident cells in ordinary connective tissue. Fibroblasts are responsible for secreting collagen and other elements of the extracellular matrix of connective tissue.
Which kind of tissue is blood?
Connective Tissue, because it's formed from the same embryonic layer as other connective tissues.
What type of tissue binds and supports other tissues?
What tissue gives support to the body?
How do loose and connective tissue differ?
Loose Connective Tissue consists of a lot of ground substance and it has all 3 types of protein fibers. Dense Connective Tissue on the other hand has little ground substance, few cells, and although it has most protein fibers it mainly consists of collagen fibers.
Which type of tissue binds together and supports other tissues and organs?
Connective tissue
Type of tiisue in the lungs?
The type of tissue in the lungs is mostly epithelial. The other tissue is connective, and some of this is blood, which is a liquid connective tissue.
What does the connective tissue do for the heart?
Connective tissue ensures that the different compartments of the heart do not interfere with each other. The connective tissue however keeps the compartments working closely together as one heart.
What are tissues that bind and support other tissues called?
"connective tissue": adipose, cartilage, blood, various dense & loose connective tissues
What is the definition for connective tissue?
The connective tissue refers to the body parts that hold together and support the other parts of the body.
Why would areolar tissue be considered the prototype for connective tissue proper?
All of the cell types found in other forms of connective tissue proper can be found in areolar tissue.
What is a tissue that connects tissue called?
Connective tissue binds and supports other tissue. Connective tissue are specialized even further to support cartilage, bone, fat, and even blood cells.
Do liver cells contain connective tissue?
Connective tissue is made of cells, and cells do not contain other cells (if they are healthy; bacterial infection would be an exception). Cells do contain structural elements that connect them to other cells, but that is not the same thing as connective tissue.
The connective tissue cell responsible for the synthesis and secretion of connective tissue fibers is?
Fibroblasts are the most common resident cells in ordinary connective tissue. Fibroblasts are responsible for secreting collagen and other elements of the extracellular matrix of connective tissue.
