Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Connective tissues play an important role in connection and for separation of tissues and organs. It is a primary tissue because it connects the bones and cartilage for shape and movement of organisms. It fills the spaces between the tissue and organ to provide structural and metabolic support. It consists of fibrous tissue, adipose tissue, bone, blood and cartilage for various functions such as movement, binding of organs, support, protection (physical and immune), transport, storage, and heat production.
