Structure and functions of connective tissues ?

we've all seen what a building looks like it has walls, windows, balconies and terrace. which we also know what it's made up of ? yes it's bricks, rocks, iron rods etc. So let's plan to make our own building. We began to compile a few of bricks but you recognize what happened after a brief time, all of them collapse. Why do you think it happened maybe there's some important component which we've seemed to miss are you ready to determine. Oh we didn't really use any cementing material this cementing material is extremely important to make a structure. It binds all the other materials and helps in making the building firm and solid. So now we all know that cement acts as a binding, supporting and packing materials so  this kind of a cementing material in our body to within the type of a special tissue which helps to bind the body together. This tissue helps to connect all the organs and parts of the body and hence this tissue is rightly named as connective tissue. The human body is made from four sorts of tissues. Today we'll be handling the tissue as we all know as a connective tissue is made from cells and  the cell that make up this structure  are present during a gel-like substance called medium or matrix which forms the foremost bulk of the tissue since could its a connective tissue are you wondering in our body what does it connect ? so to answer this let's inspect the human skeleton. An adult human body has 206 bones so what do you think are all of them connected to each other. Yes they're all connected with this special kind of tissue the connective tissue. Tissue that connects two bones is known as a ligament but apart from just connecting bones even muscles are adhered to the bones with another kind of tissue called the tendon and both these that is the ligament and tendon are a sort of tissue called as dense tissue. Dense because the cells during this sort of tissue are densely packed in conjunction with little or no matrix to protect our bones and muscles.  The human skin is  the most important organ but ever wondered how does it just stay there the skin is connected to a muscles with a sort of a tissue the cells during this tissue float during a gel-like medium which is loose and hence this tissue gets its name as an areola or loose tissue. It's also present around blood vessels, nerves and within the bone marrow and to fill the space inside the organs. So mainly this type of tissue is used as a filler tissue are we all good Till here? okay so till now we've seen how a tissue connects parts of our body or how it binds them together now let's move a step ahead and see the other functions of how the tissue supports our body. Our bones form the framework of our body, but did you recognize that these bones are also a connective tissue it supports and holds our internal organs together like as an example the   lungs are supported by the bony rib cage in our chest, a skull holds and supports our brain it's getting to be difficult to ascertain a bone as a tissue because we've always seen a tissue has a kind of a layer or a gaggle of cells but the bone cells are present during a medium which has calcium and phosphorus and because of this a bone is strong in hardened appearance so therefore the bone may be a kind of skeletal tissue. But there's another tissue during this type have you ever  tried folding your ear lobe it bends easily right that's because the cells here are widely spaced and the matrix is tree  like firm and slightly elastic this tissue is known as as a cartilage. Yes the year lobe nose tip and much of more such areas are made up of cartilage a precious body must be safe from the mechanical shocks it'd get and plan to  attempt to do to undertake  the present. There's a layer of tissue right beneath your skin which acts as a shock absorber this special kind of tissue is known as fat the cells here  are full of fat globules let's come to a fun fact did you recognize that thin body that have little or no fat feel more cold compared to fat individuals as this layer acts as an insulator this brings us to the last kind of tissue we've always seen a tissue sort of a layer of cells or a huge pile of cells but what if I tell you that our body features a tissue which is liquid in nature. This fluid flows through your entire body and acts as a transporter of oxygen to all or any of the parts of the body are you ready to name this fluid in our body yes it's the blood. Blood may be a fluid tissue which has many cells like RBC's WBC's and platelets suspended during a liquid medium called plasma. So  we've completed seeing all the kinds of tissue and simultaneously learned the functions of this tissue so just how without cement the building collapse imagine what would happen to a body without tissue let's end this session with this intriguing thought and learn to value each and everything present in our body.
