Definition
contains a large proportion of intercellular material. This is non-living material that is found between the cells and is produced by the cells.
Types
Loose/areolar-
loose and rather spongy arrangement of cells or fibrocytes, fibers and intercellular matrix.
Allows easy separation of the skin from the underlying tissue during dissection
Dense irregular-
contains more fibers that loose tissue, mostly collagenous fibers which provide tensile strength in any direction. Dermis of skin, submucosa of the GI tract
Dense regular connective tissue-
lowest proportion of cells and intercellular fluid and the highest tensile strength of all types of fibrous connective tissue. Its found in tendons, ligaments.
Elastic Connective Tissue-
mostly branching elastic fibers, yellow in color, can stretch 1.5x their original length- forms walls of large arteries and respiratory passageways
Reticular Connective
Tissue-characterized predominantly by reticular fibers-fine branching that form a frame work of glands such as the lover, spleen and lymph nodes |

Definition
Strong, but resilient intercellular matrix. Cartilage has no direct blood supply
Hyaline-flexible
Fibrocartilage-dense substance with similarities both to hyaline and dense fibrous connective tissue-interverebral discs
Elastic cartilage-yellowish, flexible cartilage- lots of elactic fibers |
