    Connective tissue is one of the most abundant and widely distributed tissues in the body. It protects and supports the body and its organs. Connective tissue consists of two basic elements: cells and extracellular matrix. There are mainly two types of connective tissue, one is embryonic connective tissue, and other type is mature connective tissue. Mesenchymal cells give rise to cells of mature connective tissue. There are five major types of mature connective tissue: loose connective tissue, dense connective tissue, cartilage, bone and liquid connective tissue (blood tissue and lymph).
