Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Reticular tissue is specialized loose connective tissue that forms the internal framework (stroma) of organs such as the spleen, lymph nodes, and bone marrow. It provides structural support to these organs and helps in the filtration of blood and the production of blood cells. The other choices (neural, cardiac, skeletal, and serous) do not typically make up the internal framework of organs. Neural tissue forms the nervous system, cardiac muscle tissue makes up the heart, skeletal muscle tissue is attached to bones, and serous tissue lines the cavities of internal organs.
