3. Where is it located in the body?
1. Connective tissue proper: loose connective tissue, areolar.
2. Wraps and cushions organs; its macrophages phagocytize bacteria; plays important role in inflammation; holds and conveys tissue fluid.
3. Widely distributed under epithelia of the body, e.g., forms lamina propria of mucous membranes; packages organs; surrounds capillaries.
