Q

give a brief overview of connective tissue proper

A

structural parts of the body, in every organ. The main cell type in CT proper is fibroblasts(baby) or fibrocyte(adult). Fibroblasts make three kinds of fibers. Collagenous, elastic and reticular.

79
Q

A

collagenous fibers are fibers produced by fibroblasts which are the main cell type in CT proper. Collagenous fibers are made of collagen protein. they are inelastic, but STROng.

A

elastic fibers originate from fibroblasts which are the main cell type of ct proper. They are made of elastin protein, and stretch and resume shape!

81
Q

tell about reticular fibers and where they come from

A

reticular fibers come from fibroblasts which are the main cell type of ct proper. They are made of a protein called reticulin. Its like a thin collagenous fiber.

Q

what is loose irregular ct proper known as
