Connective Tissue
Support
Extracellular matrix
secreted with ground substance (glycoproteins and polysaccharides) and fibers - GAGs, proteoglycan and adhesive glycoproteins
Proteoglycans
Help hold tissues together like a net to attract the immune system

Dense types
Dense Regular
Tendons and ligaments and Yellow Elastic Tissue Found in wavy sheets - tends to tear

has thin striations
Cardiac
striation not long but branching - dark striations and one or two nuclei
Smooth
No striation - spindle and fuseform shape
