Question
Chapter 38, Problem 11TYK
Summary Introduction
To review:
Blood described as an atypical tissue and also, the reason behind considering blood as connective tissue.
Introduction:
Tissues are group of cells with matrix. The matrix consists of fluid and fibers. The name itself suggests that connective tissues form connections between different tissues and organs of the body. These connections support different tissues by helding them together, communicating between them by sending signals, and by transporting materials between them.
