| Connective tissues | type of tissue that binds structures, provide support and protection, serve as frameworks, fill spaces, store fat, produce blood cells, protect against infections, and help repair tissue damage |
| fibroblast, macrophage, and mast cells | Name 3 connective tissue cell types |
| macrophages | connective tissue cell type that originate as white blood cells |
| macrophage | connective tissue cell type that protects body from foreign particles |
| fibroblast | connective tissue which produces fibers |
| mast cells | connective tissue cell type that is usually located near blood vessels |
| collagenous, elastic, and reticular fibers | Name 3 fibers produced by fibroblasts |
| ligaments | tough connective tissue which connects bone to bone |
| tendons | tough connective tissue which connects muscle to bone |
| loose, adipose, dense, cartilage, bone, and blood | Name to the 6 types of connective tissue |
| loose connective tissue | binds the skin to the underlying organs and fills space between muscles |
| adipose tissue | connective tissue which stores fat |
| adipose tissue | connective tissue which lines beneath the skin, in spaces between muscles, and around organs |
| adipose tissue | connective tissue which provides insulation |
| adipose tissue | connective tissue which stores energy in fat molecules |
| dense connective tissue | consists of collagenous fibers, very strong |
| dense connective tissue | connective tissue which makes up ligaments and tendons |
| dense and cartilage connective tissue | type of connective tissue that has poor blood supply and therefore heals slowly |
| cartilage | connective tissue which provides support, frameworks, and attachments |
| cartilage | connective tissue which provides structural models for many developing bones |
| hylaine, elastic, and fibrocartilage | Name the 3 kinds of cartilage |
| bone | most rigid of connective tissue |
| bone | connective tissue formed of mineral salts, calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate and collagenous fibers |
| bone | provides support and protection to body and provides place for attachment of muscles |
| osteocytes | bone cells |
| canaliculi | cytoplasmic processes that extend outward and pass through very tiny tubes in matrix of bone to promote movement of materials between blood vessels and bone cells |
| bone and loose connective tissue | Name 2 connective tissues with a steady supply of nutrients |
| adipose, dense, and cartilage | Name 3 connective tissues without a steady supply of nutrients |
| blood | connective tissue which transports a variety of materials between interior body cells and those that exchange substances with the external environment (lungs) |
| blood | connective tissue composed of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets |
