- - - - functon
        
        maintains the shape of a structure while allowing great flexibility
      - location
        
        supports the external ear; epiglottis
    - - function
        
        tensile strength with the ability to absorb compressive shock
      - location
        
        intervertebral discs, pubic symphysis, discs of knee joint
    - - Function
        
        supports and reinforces, serves as resilient cushion, resists compressive stress
      - location
        
        embryonic skeleton, ends of long bones in joint cavities, costal cartilages of the ribs, nose, trachea and larynx.
  - - - supports and protects, provides levers for the muscles to act on, stores calcium , minerals, and fat; marrow inside is the cite for blood cell formation
    - - bones
  - - - function
        
        attaches muscles to bones or to muscles, attaches bones to bones, withstands great tensile stress when pulling force is applied in one direction
      - location
        
        tendons, ligaments, aponeuroses
    - - function
        
        Allows recoil of tissue, maintains flow of blood through arteries, aids passive recoil of lungs.
      - location
        
        walls of large arteries, within certain ligaments associated with the vertebral column . within walls of the bronchial tubes.
    - - function
        
        can be exerted in many directions, provides structural strength
      - location
        
        fibrous capsules of organs and of joints, dermis of the skin, submucosa of digestive tract
  - - - contained within blood vessels
    - - transport respiratory gases, nutrients, wastes, and other substances
  - - - Location
        
        under skin in hypodermis, around kidneys and eyeballs, within abdomen, in breasts.
      - Function
        
        provides reserve food fuel, insulates against heat loss and supports/protects organs
    - - Location
        
        lymphoid organs (lymph nodes, bone marrow and spleen)
      - Function
        
        fibers form a soft internal skeleton that supports other cell types including white blood cells, mast cells and microphages
    - - Location
        
        widely distributed under epithelia of body, forms lamina propria of mucuos membranes, packages organs, surrounds capillaries
      - Function
        
        wraps and cushions organs, plays important role in inflammation, holds and conveys tissue fluid
  - - - Gives rise to all other connective tissue types
    - - primarily in embryo
- - - - as it contracts, it propels blood into circulation, involuntary control
    - - the walls of the heart
  - - - propels substances or objects along internal passageways; involuntary control
    - - mostly in the walls of hollow organs
  - - - voluntary movement, locomotion, manipulation of the environment , facial expression
    - - in skeletal muscles attached to bones or occasionally to skin
- - - - Function
        
        diffusion and filtration and produces lubricating fluid in srerosae
      - Location
        
        Kidney glomeruli, sacs of lungs, lining of heart, blood vessels, lining of ventral body cavity.
    - - Function
        
        secretion and absorption
      - Location
        
        Kidney tubules, ducts and secretory portions of small glands; ovary surface
    - - Location
        
        Nonciliated: lines most of the digestive tract, gallbladder, and exctretory ducts.
        
        Ciliated: lines small bronchi uterine tubes and some regions of the uterus
      - Function
        
        Absorption, secretion of mucus, enzymes and other substances. The ciliated type propels mucus by ciliary action
  - - - Function
        
        Protects underlying tissues in areas subjected to abrasion
      - Location
        
        Nonkeratinized: forms the moist linking's of the esophagus, mouth and vagina
        
        Keratinized: epidermis of the skin, a dry membrane
    - - Function
        
        Protection
      - Location
        
        Largest ducts of sweat glands, mammary glands, and salivary glands
    - - Function
        
        Protection and secretion
      - Location
        
        Rare in the body, small amounts in male urethra and in large ducts of some glands.
    - - Function
        
        stretches readily and permits distension of urinary organ by contained urine
