Question 11

Collagen fibers

Answer 11

It provides strength and cushioning to many different areas of the body, including the skin. More specifically, collagen is found in our various types of connective tissue such as cartilage, tendons, bones, and ligaments

Question 12

Elastic fibers

Answer 12

found in extracellular matrix of connective tissue and produced by fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells in arteries. These fibers can stretch up to 1.5 times their length, and snap back to their original length when relaxed.

Question 13

Reticular fiber

Answer 13

connective tissue composed of type III collagen secreted by reticular cells. Reticular fibers crosslink to form a fine meshwork

Question 24

Holds organs into place connect epithelia tissue to other underlying tissues commonly found in vertebrates

Answer 24

Loose Areolar tissue

Question 25

Term for loose connective tissue composed of adipocytes. Its main role is to store energy in the form of fat, although it also cushions and insulates the body.

Answer 29

Elastic tissue

Question 30

makes up the embryonic skeleton. It persists in human adults at the ends of bones in free-moving joints as articular cartilage, at the ends of the ribs, and in the nose, larynx, trachea, and bronchi. tissue provides smooth surfaces, enabling tissues to move/slide easily over each other

Answer 30

Hyaline cartilage
