Connective Tissue is found throughout the entire body. Connective Tissue is also called Fascia. For example, fascia is the white membrane you find on chicken. Another example of fascia is the sleeve of a shirt, if you pull on the sleeve it will move at other places of the shirt because the shirt is all connected, just like facia.
