MT30-Histology Art AB 4 years, 4 months agoCONNECTIVE TISSUE
Connective tissue makes up part of every organ in the body. It is very abundant. It differs from the other three tissue types in that it consists of cells separated from each other by abundant extracellular matrix.
The Extracellular Matrix of Cinnective tissue has three major components one of which are the protein fibers of the…[Read more] -

Your duodenum is the first section of the small intestine into which your stomach feeds. It is a short, descending chute that curves in a "C" form around your pancreas before joining the rest of the coiled intestines.
-
The middle part, known as the jejunum, accounts for less than half of the remaining length. It has a dense network of blood veins that give it a deep crimson color.
-
The ileum is your small intestine's final and longest portion. Food spends the longest time in your ileum, absorbing the most water and nutrients.
