2 Characteristics common of connective tissues
1. Well Vascularized
2. Extracellular matrix
Areolar tissue
soft, pliable "cobwebby" tissue, cushions and protects body organs. Glue that holds internals together, all throughout the body.

Upper dermal region. Consists of: Dermal Papillae (fingerlike proj) and Meissner's Corpuscles (nerve endings)
Reticular layer of dermis
Deepest skin layer, contains blood bessels, sweat and oil glands and deep pressure receptors
1st degree burns
only epidermis is involved
2nd degree burns
