Concept explainers
To discuss:
The appearance, functions, and locations of adipose tissues and differences between the white fat and brown fat.
Introduction:
Connective tissues are abundant and a widely distributed tissue type among the other tissue classes. It plays 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 the shape and movement of organisms. It fills the spaces between the tissue and organ to provide structural and
