1. Loose connective tissue: Found throughout the body, including beneath the skin, between muscles, around blood vessels, and supporting organs. It provides cushioning and support.

2. Dense connective tissue: Found in tendons (which connect muscles to bones) and ligaments (which connect bones to other bones). It is strong and provides structural support.

3. Cartilage: Found in areas such as the joints, the nose, and the ears. It is flexible and provides cushioning and support.

4. Bone: Found throughout the skeletal system, providing support and protection for organs, as well as serving as a storage site for minerals.

5. Blood: Found in blood vessels throughout the body, circulating nutrients and oxygen to tissues and removing waste products. It also plays a role in immune defense and clotting.
