PART B. TYPES OF CONNECTIVE TISSUES 7. BLOOD: Blood is considered a (highlight one: fluid, loose, dense, semisolid, or solid) connective tissue. Unlike other connective tissues, blood has a liquid ECM (extracellular matrix) called and hormones in the blood. which transports nutrients, waste, Draw blood connective tissue. Red blood cells. Plasma- Draw what you see. Label the cells and fibers (reticular fibers). Platelets In the plasma, you should see 3 types of cells or structures: Erythrocytes are known as red blood cells. They are the tiny pink dots all over the image. Red blood cells carry oxygen in the blood. They do not have nuclei. leukocytes are known as white blood cells. They are the larger, purple dots scattered throughout the image. White blood cells help with immune response and they DO have nuclei. __Platelets_are proteins (non- cellular components) that help with the blood clotting immune response. You may not be able to see them on the image (too low magnification and quality). 8. RED BONE MARROW: Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) Red bone marrow is made of connective tissue, which is considered a (circle one: fluid, loose, dense, semisolid, or solid) connective tissue. Reticular tissue has a network of fibers loosely packed, not dense. Purple cells, mostly leukocytes, fill the spaces between the fibers. That's why you can also find reticular tissue in immune system organs such as lymph nodes and the spleen. In red bone marrow, these leukocytes are actually hematopoietic stem cells, or baby blood cells.
