Q

Types of dense connective tissue

A

Tendons

Ligaments

22
Q

Structure of tendons

A

Lots of white, inelastic fibres

23
Q

Structure of ligament tissue

A

Lots of yellow, elastic fibres

24
Q

Structure of cartilage tissue

A
  • Rubbery matrix
  • Fluid filled spaces called lacunae
  • Cartilage cells called chondrocytes in the lacunae
  • Cartilage tisue enclosed by fibrous membrane called the perichondrium
25
Q

Functions of cartilage

A
  • Connects bones
  • Forms deep joint cavities to prevent dislocation
  • Shock absorber between bones
  • Prevents friction in joints
  • Keeps trachea and other airways open
  • Forms flexible permanent structures like the ear and nose
26
Q

Central canals found in bone tissue

A

Haversian canals

27
Q

Matrix composition of bone tissue

A

Calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate

28
Q

Contained in the haversian canals of bone

A
  • Blood vessels
  • nerves
  • lymphatic vessels
29
Q

Concentric layers of bone around a haversian canal

A

Lamellae

30
Q

Fluid filled spaces in the lamellae of bone

A

lacunae

31
Q

Bone cells in the lacunae are called?

A

Osteocytes

32
Q

Small canals connecting the lacunae and diffeent lamellae

A

Canaliculi

33
Q

Fibrous membrane enclosing the bone tissue

A

Periosteum

34
Q

Functions of bone tissue

A
  • Supporting framework giving shape and rigidity
  • Protects delicate organs
  • Place of attachment for muscles for movement
  • Blood corpuscles manufactured in bone marrow
  • Mineral storage (calcium) in bone tissue
35
Q

Matrix of blood tissue

A

Blood plasma

36
Q

Location of blood tissue

A

Arteries, capillary vessels and veins

37
Q

Types of blood cells

A
  • Erythrocytes (Red blood corpuscles)
  • Leucocytes (White blood cells)
  • Thrombocytes (Blood platelets)
38
Q

Main functions of blood tissue

A
  • Transport nutrients and wastes
  • White blood cells for the immune system
39
Q

Functions of blood plasma

A
  • Transports nutrients and wastes
  • Helps to regulate body temperature
  • Transports hormones to target organs
  • Plasma proteins help to clot blood when required
40
Q

Functions of erythrocyes (red blood corpuscles)

A
  • Transport oxygen
  • Transport carbon dioxide
41
Q

Effect of atmospheric pressure on red blood cells

A
  • As pressure is decreased, the body produces more red blood cells
  • This helps the person get enough oxygen from oxygen depleted air
  • This occurs at higher altitudes
42
Q

Functions of white blood cells

A
  • Engulf pathogens and foreign substances to prevent infection
  • Produce antibodies that destroy bacteria and viruses
43
Q

Function of thrombocytes (blood platelets)

A

Play a role in blood clotting in damaged blood vessels

44
Q

Types of muscle tissue

A
  • Striated muscle
  • Smooth muscle
  • Cardiac muscle
45
Q

Location of striated muscle

A

Attaches to bone for movement of the skeleton (skeletal muscle)

46
Q

Muscle cells are called?

A

Muscle fibres

47
Q

Structure of a muscle fibre

A
  • Sarcolemma (outer membrane)
  • Sarcoplasm (cytoplasm)
  • Many oval nuclei
  • Many mitochondria
  • Thousands of myofibrils
48
Q

Function of striated muscle tissue

A
  • Voluntary contractions and relaxations
  • coordinated body movement
49
Q

Location of smooth muscle tissue

A
  • Walls of alimentary canal, bladder, blood vessels and uterus
  • Not attached to bone
50
Q

Structure of smooth muscle tissue

A
  • Spindle shaped cells
  • One oval nucleus
  • Sarcoplasm (cytoplasm)
  • Cell membrane (sarcolemma)
51
Q

Function of smooth muscle tissue

A
  • Involuntary contraction and relaxation for slow rhythmic movements
  • E.g. peristalsis, regulates blood blow in capillaries
