What is a GAG? name the four groups | Glycosaminoglycans are long unbranched polysaccaride chains with repeating disacaride units. Hyluronic acid, chonroitin sulfate, heparin sulfate, and keatin sulfate |
What is a proteoglycan | contain more sugar than protien |
What is a glycoprotein | lots of protien with little sugar, organizes elastin into fibers, and if absent causes elastin to form sheets |

Type IV and VII | Basement membranes, signal where one tissue ends and another begins |
Where is loose connective tissue found | Adentitia o blood vessels, propria of GI |
Adipose tissue location | subcuanteous layer, covers some organs |
Elastic fiber location | Elastic cartilage, major arteries, some lung, some dermis, and elastic ligaments |
Dense Irregular | no partiular orientation, most abundant |
dense regular location | tendons and ligaments |
