CARTILAGE AND BONES Flashcards
three types of cartilage:
hyaline,
elastic, and fibrous.
GROSSLY YELLOWISH
IN FRESH SPECIMENS. IT IS MORE FLEXIBLE
THAN HYALINE CARTILAGE
ELASTIC CARTILAGE
CAN WITHSTAND
GREATER STRESS THAN HYALINE OR ELASTIC
CARTILAGE. IT IS WHITE IN FRESH
SPECIMENS
FIBROUS CARTILAGE
This
tissue is special because chondrogenic
potenced perability to form cartilage
PERICHONDRIUM
BONES
Functions
Support, protection, movement, mineral storage,
blood cell production, energy storag
Forms of Bone Tissue:
Compact Bone
Spongy Bone (Cancellous Bone):
Dense and solid, forming the outer layer of
bones, providing structural strength and protection.
Compact Bone
Contains trabeculae (small
needle-like structures) that provide internal support. Found in
the interior of bones and at the ends of long bones.
Spongy Bone (Cancellous Bone)
