Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Animals, humans and other multicellular organisms possess organ system that carry out processes which keep us alive. The functioning of the organ system depends on the integrated activity of its organs and the functioning of an organ depends on the functioning of the tissues. Connective tissue acts as a binder between cells and organs of the body. The connective tissues protect and support all the parts of the body.
