Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The large amount of amorphous ground substance gives the impression of a lot of space between the fibers and cells of loose connective tissue. For this reason, loose connective tissue is also referred to as areolar tissue (areola = a small open area).

Detailed explanation-2: -The first type of loose connective tissue is adipose tissue. In general, adipose tissue is fat tissue. There are two types of adipose tissue, brown adipose tissue, and white adipose tissue.

Detailed explanation-3: -Loose and dense connective tissue are made up of the following three fibers: collagen fibers, reticular fibers, and elastin fibers.

Detailed explanation-4: -Areolar connective tissue is a tough and flexible tissue that is the most abundant form of connective tissue in vertebrate organisms. Its ECM consists of ground substance, and loosely dispersed protein fibers, giving it its characteristic mesh-like or ‘areolar’ appearance.
