The mammalian circulatory system is a closed double circulation, consisting of a heart, blood vessels and blood. The heart produces high pressure --> blood moves through the vessels by mass flow. The mammalian...

Connective Tissue
Although in the picture one can only see the ?blue? veins in my arm, veins and arteries carry blood. Blood is one of the six major types of connective tissue. Connective tissue binds and supports other tissues, and it consists of many cells scattered throughout the extracellular matrix.
