Does loose connective tissue contain chondrocytes?
No, loose connective tissue does not contain chondrocytes. Chondrocytes are specialized cells found in cartilage tissue, not in loose connective tissue. Loose connective tissue primarily consists of collagen and elastin fibers, along with various cells such as fibroblasts and macrophages.
What is the tissue group with widely scattered cells?
Connective tissue is the tissue group with widely scattered cells. In connective tissue, cells are separated by an extracellular matrix composed of fibers and ground substance. Examples of connective tissue include loose connective tissue, dense connective tissue, and adipose tissue.
Mesenchymal cells are most commonly found in what kind of connective tissue?
Mesenchymal cells are most commonly found in loose connective tissue, such as the stroma of various organs, where they can differentiate into different cell types like fibroblasts, adipocytes, and chondrocytes.
What component of connective tissue is found between the cells and fibers and functions to support and bind cells in the tissue together?
ligaments
Connective tissue cells that are phagocytic?
Macrophages are the main phagocytic cells found in connective tissue. They play a crucial role in engulfing and digesting foreign particles, damaged cells, and other debris to maintain tissue homeostasis and support the immune response. Other connective tissue cells, such as fibroblasts, are not typically phagocytic.

Which type of cell is NOT found in areolar tissue?
The cell type that is not found in the areolar connective tissue is chondrocytes. The three main components of connective tissue are ground substance, fibers, and 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.
Is blood connetive tissue?
No it's not, Ligaments, Tendons, and Cartilage are connective tissues.
Is connective tissue living?
Yes, connective tissue is living tissue made up of cells and extracellular matrix. The cells in connective tissue help to maintain and repair the tissue, while the extracellular matrix provides structural support.
Connective tissue made up of cells cell parts and plasma?
this connective tissue is called lymphatic tissue!
Does areolar or loose connective tissue lacks nucleated cells?
Areolar connective tissue contains various types of cells, including nucleated cells such as fibroblasts and immune cells. However, loose connective tissue is a broader term that encompasses various types of connective tissues, some of which may not contain nucleated cells. Examples of loose connective tissues without nucleated cells include adipose tissue (which primarily consists of fat cells) and cartilage.
