Summary Introduction
To Determine:
If the given statement is true or false.
Introduction:
The most abundant connective tissue in the human body is the fibrous connective tissue. These tissues contain a variety of fibers and cells. The importantconnective tissuesconsists of three fibers: collagenous fibers, reticular fibers, and elastic fibers. Collagenous fibers are made up of collagen protein, reticular fibers are made up of thin collagen fibers coated with glycoproteins, and elastic fibers are made up of elastin protein.

- One way to characterise biological tissue is to send a small electrical current through the tissue and measure the opposition to flow of that current through the tissue. In humans, the resistivity of fat is considerably greater than for muscle, which in turn is considerably greater than for blood and other body fluids. This can be used to analyse body composition, in particular, to estimate body fat percentage. (a) Using a simple model of fat versus non-fat tissue, draw a circuit diagram to represent the possible flows of current through the tissue. (b) Why would the analysis of body composition need to take into account the height and weight of the person? (c) How could the level of hydration or electrolyte abnormalities in the person affect the results of the analysis?
