Q

Differences between Epithelial versus Connective Tissue

A

Connective tissue is highly vascularized versus Epithelial which is not vascularized. Connective derives from mesoderm and Epithelial derives from ectoderm, endoderm, and mesoderm.

Q

What are the Categories of Connective Tissue Proper?

A
  1. Loose Connective Tissue
  • More ground substance, less fibers
  • Ex. Adipose Tissue
  1. Dense Connective Tissue
  • Less ground substance, more fibers
  • Ex: Tendons

Q

What is the structure shown at the pointer?

A

Nucleus

  • Adipose cells push the nucleus to the outside of the ring “signet”
18
Q

What structure is the pointer showing?

A

Mast Cell

19
Q

Is this Dense Regular Connective Tissue or Dense Irregular Connective Tissue?

A

Dense Regular Connective Tissue

20
Q

Mast Cells release histamine and other chemical mediators. What are the three functions and purpose of these chemical mediators?

A

1. Dilate the blood vessels - this allows for blood to go to the injured area ( causes injured area to become red (erythema))

2. Increase permeability of the vessels- allows for proteins and water to enter (causes swelling ((edema))

3. Stimulate Pain- allows one to know that an injury has occcurred

21
Q
  1. What kind of cells are shown below? 2. What do they produce?
A
  1. Fibroblast
  2. Collagen Fibers

Q

What is the function of reticular tissue? Where is reticular tissue found?

A

Function: Provides Support

Location: Liver, Kidneys, Spleen, Lymph Nodes, Bone Marrow
