24
Q

Located in the Nose, larynx, trachea, bronchi, ventral ends of ribs

Study These Flashcards
A

HYALINE CARTILAGE

25
Greatly resembles hyaline cartilage, except that its matrix and perichondrium possess elastic fibers
ELASTIC CARTILAGE
26
Somewhat yellow and more opaque than hyaline
ELASTIC CARTILAGE
27
_____ are more abundant and larger than hyaline
Chondrocytes
28
Contains type II collagen and perichondrium
ELASTIC CARTILAGE
29
Located in the Pinna of ear, walls of auditory canal, auditory tube, epiglottis, cuneiform cartilage of larynx
ELASTIC CARTILAGE
30
Does not possess a perichondrium
FIBROCARTILAGE
31
Includes type I collagen
FIBROCARTILAGE
32
Chondrocytes are often aligned in alternating parallel rows
FIBROCARTILAGE
33
Located in the Intervertebral disks
FIBROCARTILAGE
34
Located in the Articular disks
FIBROCARTILAGE
35
Located in the Pubic symphysis
FIBROCARTILAGE
36
Located in the Insertion of some tendons
FIBROCARTILAGE
37
Spindle-shaped, derived from mesenchymal cells
CHONDROGENIC CELLS
38
Can differentiate into both chondroblasts and osteoprogenitor cells
CHONDROGENIC CELLS
39
Derived from either mesenchymal of chondrogenic cells
CHONDROBLASTS
40
Are chondroblasts that are surrounded by matrix
CHONDROCYTES
41
As the cells of isogenous group manufactures matrix, they are pushed away from each other, forming separate lacunae and thus enlarging cartilage from within
Interstitial growth
42
Chondrogenic cells undergo division and differentiate into chondroblasts, which begin to elaborate matrix. In this way cartilage grows by adding to its periphery
Appositional growth
43
is a specialized form of connective tissue characterized by a mineralized extracellular matrix
Bone tissue
44
calcium phosphate in the form of hydroxyapatite crystals [Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2] (INORGANIC)
Mineral
45
mainly collagen (type I, VI) along with other matrix proteins (ORGANIC)
Matrix
46
All collagen molecules ~ _____% of total weight of bone matrix
90%
47
storage for elements and minerals - homeostatic regulation of blood calcium levels
Bone
48
mechanical structures for movement and protection of viscera
Bone
49
a home for hematopoietic tissue
Bone
50
Storage of adipose tissue: yellow marrow
Bone
51
Bone tissue is classified as:
Compact bone Spongy bone
