Chapter 5 lab Flashcards
fundamental cell type of bone connective tissue is
osteoblast/osteocyte
lacunae
small space where osteocytes reside
bone tissue matrix is arranged in two ways
osteons (cylindrical structures) in compact bone, and trabeculae (flat or needle like structure) in spongy bone
what do collagenous fibers do to the matrix
give bone bone tissue it tensile strength
what does the mineral salts give bone tissue
the ability to hold its shape when squeezed
bone marrow is composed of
reticular connective tissue, immature blood cells, and adipocytes
the outter surface of bone is formed by a sheath of what
dense irregular connective tissue called the periosteum
the periosteum is made from
collagenous fibers that go in all directions
what is the fundamental cell type of cartilage connective tissue?
chondrocyte/chondroblast
where are chondrocytes found?
in the lacunae
what forms the outer surface of most cartilaginous structures?
dense irregular connective tissue, the perichondrium (vascular)
hyaline cartilage connective tissue
has collagenous fibers and provides firm support
-found in articular cartilages and in the larynx
fibrocartilage connective tissue
collagenous fibers that are thicker than hyaline cartilage,
-provides strong support that can withstand heavy pressure ex: intervertebral discs and menisci of the knee
elastic cartilage connective tissue
elastic fibers and collagenous fibers,
- gives structure a firm bus elastic support
- ex: ears and epiglottis (part of larynx
ligaments are composed of
dens regular connective tissue
fibroblast are the fundamental cell type in what two tissues
dens regular and dense irregular connective tissue
difference between dense regular and dense irregular collagenous fibers?
dense regular tissue fibers are in parallel bundles
-dense irregular fibers are in all directions
articulation
joint -binds bones together
types of joints
synovial, fibrous, cartilaginous
two main factors used to classify a join by structure are the….
type of connective tissue binding the bones and whether or not there is a joint cavity
fibrous joints
dense connective tissue binds the bones; no joint cavity
cartilaginous joints
cartilage connective tissue bines the bones; no joint cavity
synovial joints
an articular capsule, ligaments, and muscle bind the bones; joint cavity present
fibrous layer of the articular capsule is made of
dense irregular connective tissue
the deep layer of the capsule, the synovial membrane is composed of ______ and produces synovial fluid
loose connective tissue
dense regular or dense irregular connective tissue is best at resisting tension exerted in a single direction
dense regular connective tissue
what type of bone has trabeculae?
spongy
