Greatly resembles hyaline cartilage, except that its matrix and perichondrium possess elastic fibers

A

ELASTIC CARTILAGE

26
Q

Somewhat yellow and more opaque than hyaline

A

ELASTIC CARTILAGE

27
Q

_____ are more abundant and larger than hyaline

A

Chondrocytes

28
Q

Contains type II collagen and perichondrium

FIBROCARTILAGE

31
Q

Includes type I collagen

A

FIBROCARTILAGE

32
Q

Chondrocytes are often aligned in alternating parallel rows

A

FIBROCARTILAGE

33
Q

Located in the Intervertebral disks

A

FIBROCARTILAGE

34
Q

Located in the Articular disks

A

FIBROCARTILAGE

35
Q

Located in the Pubic symphysis

A

FIBROCARTILAGE

36
Q

Located in the Insertion of some tendons

A

FIBROCARTILAGE

37
Q

Spindle-shaped, derived from mesenchymal cells

A

CHONDROGENIC CELLS

38
Q

Can differentiate into both chondroblasts and osteoprogenitor cells

A

CHONDROGENIC CELLS

39
Q

Derived from either mesenchymal of chondrogenic cells

A

CHONDROBLASTS

40
Q

Are chondroblasts that are surrounded by matrix

A

CHONDROCYTES

41
Q

As the cells of isogenous group manufactures matrix, they are pushed away from each other, forming separate lacunae and thus enlarging cartilage from within

A

Interstitial growth

42
Q

Chondrogenic cells undergo division and differentiate into chondroblasts, which begin to elaborate matrix. In this way cartilage grows by adding to its periphery

A

Appositional growth

43
Q

is a specialized form of connective tissue characterized by a mineralized extracellular matrix

A

Bone tissue

44
Q

calcium phosphate in the form of hydroxyapatite crystals [Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2] (INORGANIC)

45
Q

mainly collagen (type I, VI) along with other matrix proteins (ORGANIC)

46
Q

All collagen molecules ~ _____% of total weight of bone matrix

47
Q

storage for elements and minerals - homeostatic regulation of blood calcium levels

48
Q

mechanical structures for movement and protection of viscera

49
Q

a home for hematopoietic tissue

50
Q

Storage of adipose tissue: yellow marrow

51
