Keratinized layer is also called as

A

Stratum Corneum

21
Q

3 main component of Connective tissues derived from embryonic mesenchyme

A
  • Cells (Fibroblast, Osteoblast, Chondroblast)

  • Serves as stored energy
  • Acts as cushion for many internal organs
A

Adipose Tissue

27
Q

Locations of Adipose Tissue

A
  • Subcutaneous layer deep to skin
  • Yellow marrow of the long bones
  • Around the heart
  • Inside the eye-socket, posterior to the eyeball
  • Around the kidneys
  • Paddings around the joints
28

  • Strongest among the cartilages
A

Fibro Cartilage

31
Q

Its function is to resist strong forces of compression and tension

A

Fibro Cartilage

32
Q
  • Very flexible, provides support and
    maintain shape
