Connective tissue

Question 1

connective tissue makes up every organ of the body —true or false

Answer 1

true

Question 2

functions of connective tissue

Answer 2

1. enclose organs
2. connect tissues to one another
   3.suport and movement
3. storage
4. cushion/ insulate
5. transport
6. protect

Question 3

three major components of extracellular matrix

Answer 3

1. ground substance
2. proteins fibers
3. fluid

Question 4

protein fibers of extracellular matrix

Answer 4

1. collagen
2. Reticular
3. Elastic

Question 5

collagen

Answer 5

most common protein in body
strong and flexible and inelastic
rope like

Question 6

reticular

Answer 6

fill spaces between tissues and organs
form a network
fine collageneous

Question 7

elastic

Answer 7

returns to original shape after distention or compression
contains molecules of protien elastin that resemble coiled spring and are cross linked

Question 8

molecules of ground substance of matrix

Answer 8

1. hylaranoic acid
2. proteoglycans
3. adhesive molecules

Question 9

hylaranoic acid (of ground substances)

Answer 9

pollysaccharide
good lubrication
virtous of eye

Question 10

proteoglycans (of ground substances)

Answer 10

protien and polysachharide
protein part attaches to hylaranic acid
traps water

Question 11

adhesive molecules of ground substance

Answer 11

hold proteoglycan aggregates together
suffex is nectin (ie chondronectin in chartalige)

Question 12

Classifications of connective tissue:
connective tissue proper

Answer 12

loose
dense

Question 13

Clasification of CT:
Supportive

Answer 13

cartilage and bone

Question 14

Classification of CT:
fluid

Answer 14

blood and hemoptyic fluid

Question 15

loose connective tissue properties

Answer 15

fewer fibers, more ground substance

Question 16

types of loose connective tissue

Answer 16

areolar, adipose, reticular

Question 17

dense connective tissue properties

Answer 17

more fibers, less ground substance

Question 18

areolar connective tissue properties

Answer 18

loose packing or “stroma”
lies underneath skin and other tissues
contains all three proteins of extracellular matrix
contains lymphocytes, macrophages, adiposyte, fibroblasts, mast cells

Question 19

areolar connective tissue structure

Answer 19

cells within fine network of mainly collagen fibers
often merges with dense connective tissue

Question 20

adipose tissue

Answer 20

mainly adipocytes

Question 21

yellow adipose tissue

Answer 21

most abundant kind
scant ring of cytoplasm with large lipid droplet
nuclei flattened
white at birth than become yelloe

Question 22

brown adipose tissue

Answer 22

found in neck, axila and kidneys
nuclei around, multiple adipose polygonal in shape and lots of cytoplasm

Question 23

adipose function

Answer 23

insulator, protector, and site of energy storage

Question 24

reticular tissue

Answer 24

forms supersturcutre of lymph and hemopoietic tissue
network of fine reticular fibers and cells
spaces between cells contain white cells and dendrite cells

Question 25

dense regular collagenous tisssue

Answer 25

abundant COLLAGEN fibers that resist stretching tendons and ligaments

Question 26

tendons

Answer 26

connect muscle to bone fibers not necessarily parallel

Question 27

ligaments

Answer 27

connect bone to bone fibers less compact and usually form flattened sheets or bands

Question 28

dense regular elastic tissue

Answer 28

composed of collagen and elastic fibers ABLE to stretch and recoil found in vocal cords and NUCHAL ligament

Question 29

dense IRREGULAR COLLAGENOUS tissue

Answer 29

collagen fibers randomly arranged network forms innermost layer of dermis of skin, scars, capsule of kidneys and spleen

Question 30

dense irregular ELASTIC tissue

Answer 30

bundles and sheaths of collagenous and elastic fibers in multiple directions capable of stretch in many different directions elastic arteries

Question 31

lacunae

Answer 31

matrix surrounded space that house chondrocytes

Question 32

perichondrium

Answer 32

dense irregular connective tissue that surround all cartilage and secrete cartilage cells

Question 33

hyaline cartilage

Answer 33

large amounts of collagen fiber distributed in proteglayn matrix matrix appears transparent forms most of skeleton involved in bone growth--long bones found in areas for strong support and some flexibility

Question 34

fibrocartiliage

Answer 34

thick collagen fibers in proteclayn matrix slightly compressible and tough found in areas under great pressure like joints --knee, jaw, in bewtween vertebrae

Question 35

elastic cartilage

Answer 35

collagen AND ELASTIC fibers embeded in proeclayn matrix rigid but elastic properties external ears and epilgotis

Question 36

Bone

Answer 36

spongy and compact osteoycetes in luncae organic and inorganic

Question 37

compact bone

Answer 37

arranged in concentric circles like tree ring around a central canal that contains a blood vessel found on periphery of bones

Question 38

fluid connnective tissue properites

Answer 38

matrix is liquid and lacks fibers matrix is formed by other tissues moves through vessels but both fluid and cells caxn move in and out of vessels

Question 38

fluid connnective tissue properites

Answer 38

matrix is liquid and lacks fibers matrix is formed by other tissues moves through vessels but both fluid and cells caxn move in and out of vessels
