Q

What is the function of areolar tissue?

A
  1. Responsible for framing and packing of visceral organs.
  2. Connects skin (integument) to muscle.
17
Q

What are the functions of adipose tissue?

A
  1. Primary depot of fat in body.
  2. Source of energy in animals.
  3. In warm blooded animals, acts as thermoinsulator.
  4. protects soft organs from external shock.
18
Q

What is the location of Adipose tissue?

A

Located beneath the skin.

19
Q

How many types of adipose tissue are there?

A

There are two types of adipose tissue , white adipose and brown adipose.

20
Q

What are the specialities of white adipose tissue?

A
  1. monolocular (single fat droplet)
  2. cytoplasm is less
  3. appears like signet ring.
  4. mitochondria is less
  5. less energy is produced.
21
Q

what are the specialities of brown adipose tissue?

A
  1. multilocular (multiple small fat droplets)
  2. cytoplasm is more with cytochrome pigment.
  3. no change in shape.
  4. more mitochondria.
  5. produces 14 to 18 times more energy.
    appears in infants, rodents and hibernating mammals.
22
Q

what is the fat storage site in frogs?

A

corpus adiposem

23
Q

fat storage site in camel?

A

hump

24
Q

fat storage site in whale?

A

blubber

25
Q

fat storage site in leech

A

botryiodal tissue

26
Q

fat storage site in humans?

A

panniculus adiposem

27
Q

Which fibre is present in tendons?

A

white fibre

28
Q

what is the function of tendons?

A

connects muscle to bone.

29
Q

which fibre is present in ligament?

A

white as well as yellow.

30
Q

what are the functions of ligament?

A
  1. connects bone to bone as well as cartilage to bone.
  2. maintains the position of the bones at joints.
31
Q

in which part of the body bone to bone connection is not made by ligament?

A

cranium (they are connected by white fibers)

32
Q

if ligament is cut down then what will happen?

A

bone will be unfixed.

33
Q

what is the location of connective tissue proper?

A

in the dermis of skin.

34
Q

which tissues are included in connective tissue proper?

A

loose tissue, dense tissue and few embryonic tissue like mucuos and reticular tissue
