Connective tissue is the most diverse of the four tissue types with a wide variety of Functions.
The connective tissues
Functions of connective tissue:
*Protection of organs*Providing structural framework for the body*Connection of body tissues*connects epithelial tissues to the muscle tissues

The matrix consist of :
Protein fibers
White( Collagen) fibers
Yellow ( Elastic ) fibers
(occur as a single and branched).
(occur in bundles)
* The matrix may be solid (as in bone), soft (as in loose connective tissue), or liquid (as in blood).

Cartilage is studied as an example of skeletal connective tissue.
I.Cartilage
*It has 4 main functions, these are:• It forms the majority of the temporary skeleton in the mammalian embryos until it is replaced by bone.
• In adults, it supports the structure of the nasal septum, ear pinna, larynx, trachea and bronchi.
• It covers the articular surfaces of movable joints.
• It forms the epiphyseal plate.

The hyaline cartilage :
Trachea of the rabbit is studied as an example.•It is called hyaline (hyalos = gloss) because of its glossy, whitish blue appearance in the fresh state.•The matrix is semi-solid and contains very delicate collagen fibers. The refractive index of the matrix is equivalent to that of its fibers, so it appears clear.•It is the most common form of cartilage.
