A

solid matrix of calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate

17
Q

What separates cartilage from neighboring tissues

A

Perichondrium

18
Q

Hyaline Cartilage

A

only cartilage type with no visible fibers

19
Q

Elastic Cartilage

A

chondrocytes appear larger than other cartilages; elastic fibers look like plant roots branching in the soil

20
Q

Fibrocartilage

A

has the most collagen fibers of the cartilages, and they often appear in a wavy pattern ; chondrocytes are often seen in rows or small clusters

21
Q

Bone

A

in cross section, looks like tree stumps
