Q

varying amounts of extracellular matrix (ground substance and fibers).

A

Connective Tissue

22
Q

The type of CONNECTIVE TISSUE depends on the kinds of matrix they possess.

A

Matrix = ground substance and fibers
Ground substance = water, proteins and polysaccharide
Fiber =

Ground substance – polysaccharide

23
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
5 Types

A

Dense CT
Loose CT
Bone
Blood
Cartilage (hyaline, elastic and fibrocartilage)

24
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
3 Fiber Types

A

Collagenous
Reticular
Elastic

25
Q

ConnectiveTissue.

3 Loose types

A

Areolar
Adipose
Reticular

26
Q

Connective Tissue
(a) Provides STRENGTH and FLEXIBILITY
(b) JOIN connective tissue to adjacent tissue; forms internal skeleton
(c) make tissue ELASTIC

A

a. Collagenous
b. Reticular
c. Elastic

27
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
Also called osseous tissue
- the matrix is calcified by CALCIUM SALTS organized around collagen fibers arranged in concentric rings (LAMELLA)
Because of its rocklike hardness, bone has an exceptional ability to protect and support other body organs (for example, the skull protects the brain).

A

BONE

28
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
cavities where bone cells are lodged

A

Lacunae

29
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
Bone cells

A

Osteocytes

30
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
- Main matrix is COLLAGEN FIBERS
-Crowded between the collagen fibers are rows of fibroblasts (fiber-forming cells) that manufacture the building blocks of the fibers.
- Forms tendons and ligaments

A

Dense fibrous tissue

31
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
Attach skeletal muscles to bones

A

TENDONS

32
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
Bones to Bones at joints

A

LIGAMENTS

33
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
The most widely distributed connective tissue variety in the body, is a soft, pliable, “COBWEBBY” tissue that cushions and protects the body organs

A

Areolar ICT

34
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
Functions as a universal packing tissue and connective tissue “glue” because it helps to hold the internal organs together and in their proper positions.

A

Areolar ICT

35
Q

ConnectiveTissue.

Loose (areolar) CT is characterized by _____________ and elastic fibers. It is highly cellular, containing fibroblasts, immune cells (e.g., mast cells, macrophages, T cells), and endothelial cells (capillaries).

A

relatively loosely arranged collagen

36
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
It is often found directly underlying epithelia that cover body surfaces or line internal surfaces.

A

Loose Areolar Tissue

37
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
Function: cushions, supports, insulates and acts as filler tissue. Like large soap bubbles with nuclei pushed to one side.

A

Adipose Tissue LCT

38
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
Commonly known as fat Forms the subcutaneous tissue beneath the skin

A

Adipose Tissue LCT

39
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
Its main role is to serve as an ENERGY STORING reservoir, but it also INSULATES the body from extreme temperatures, cushions vital organs, and secretes hormones and biological factors.
- On the other hand, brown adipose tissue is mostly present during fetal life and in infants.

A

Adipose Tissue LCT

40
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
It forms the stroma (literally, “bed” or “mattress”), or the internal framework of an organ.
- supporting structure of the bone marrow, liver, and lymphoid organs

A

Reticular Tissue LCT

41
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
The stroma is mostly made up of connective tissue made of type III collagen, blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves.

(reticulum = net or network).

A

Reticular Tissue LCT

42
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
Blood cell. surrounded by a nonliving, fluid matrix called _______ and the formed elements ( cells, corpuscles, and fragments)

A

blood plasma

43
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
The “fibers” of blood are soluble protein molecules that become visible only during?

A

blood clotting

44
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
Why is Blood is considered a specialized connective tissue?

A

as it connects all systems of the body and transports oxygen, nutrients, and wastes.

45
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
Composition of blood

A

Plasma & Blood Cells

46
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
- most FLEXIBLE cartilage
- Supports the external ear.

A

Elastic cartilage

47
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
It forms the supporting structures of the LARYNX, or VOICE BOX, attaches the ribs to the breastbone, and covers the ends of many bones.
The skeleton of a fetus is hyaline cartilage but soon replaced by bones

A

Hyaline cartilage

48
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
The exceptions include the epiphyseal, or growth, plates in long bones, which allow the bones to grow in length during youth.

A

Hyaline cartilage

49
Q

ConnectiveTissue.
It is found predominantly in the intervertebral disks of the spine and at the insertions of ligaments and tendons.

A

Fibrocartilage

50
Q

ConnectiveIssue.
forms the cushion-like disks between the vertebrae of the spinal column where it helps manage compression forces and reduces stress placed on joints.
