Adipose Tissue

Question 9

This tissue is characterized by large, round, open spaces separated by very thin plasma membranes

Answer 9

Adipose Tissue

Question 10

They contain a large lipid droplet inside that is dissolved away during preparation of the slides making them appear clear and open.

Answer 10

Adipose Tissue

Question 11

This pushes the nucleus and other organelles of the cell up against the plasma membrane in Adipose tissues

Answer 11

lipid droplet

Question 12

This tissue is one of the easier tissues to identify in that it looks much like a hair net

Answer 12

Adipose Tissue

Question 13

Where are adipose tissues mostly found in?

Answer 13

subcutaneous areas

Question 14

Adipose tissues can be found in?
(Clue: M, Rp, Mg, K, C)

Answer 14

mesenteries, renal pelvis, mammary glands, around the kidneys and attached to the surface of the colon.

Question 15

This tissue is composed primarily of very large collagen fibers that are tightly packed in parallel bundles

Answer 15

Dense regularly arranged fibrous connective tissue

Question 16

They are scattered among the parallel collagen fibers are the elongate, sliver-like nuclei of the fibroblasts that run parallel to the direction of the fibers.

Answer 16

Dense regularly arranged fibrous connective tissue

Question 17

This tissue has a very poor blood supply; consequently, when it is damaged, it takes a long time to heal

Answer 17

Dense regularly arranged fibrous connective tissue

Question 18

Is found in tendons and ligaments

Answer 18

Dense regularly arranged fibrous connective tissue

Question 19

Like regularly arranged connective tissue, this connective tissue is also composed of large collagen fibers

Answer 19

Dense irregularly arranged fibrous connective tissue

Question 20

In this tissue, however, the fibers are not all parallel, but run in several different directions

Answer 20

Dense irregularly arranged fibrous connective tissue

Question 21

nuclei of the fibroblasts in this CT are more oval shaped

Answer 21

Dense irregularly arranged fibrous connective tissue

Question 22

Dense irregularly arranged fibrous connective tissue is found in?
(Clue: D,Ocbt, Fcoj)

Answer 22

dermis of the skin, the outer coverings of body tubes, and the fibrous capsules of organs and joints

Question 23

This refers to the small cavity in the substance of the bone containing an osteocyte.

Answer 23

Lacunae

Question 24

They are the principal active cells of connective tissue that appear large, flat, elongated (spindle-shaped) cells possessing processes extending out from the ends of the cell body.

Answer 24

fibroblasts

Question 25

It is a thin layer of connective tissue that covers the outer surface of a bone in all places except at joints.

Answer 25

Periosteum

Question 26

The fibers in the matrix have a loose and irregular arrangement, and they consist of collagenous, elastic, or reticular fibers.

Answer 26

Areolar

Question 27

They are also known as perforating holes or channels, are anatomic arrangements in cortical bones.

Answer 27

Volkmann’s canal

Question 28

They are found close to small blood vessels in loose connective tissue. They contain large secretory granules of heparin proteoglycan - a weak anticoagulant. They also contain histamine, which promotes an inflammatory reaction when secreted.

Answer 28

Mast cells

Question 29

It is a layer of dense irregular connective tissue that surrounds the cartilage of developing bone.

Answer 29

Perichondrium

Question 30

They are bundles of proteins found in extracellular matrix of connective tissue and produced by fibroblasts and smooth muscle.

Answer 30

Elastic fibers

Question 31

also known as resident cells

Answer 31

Fixed cells

Question 32

They are stable, long-lived cells, such as fibroblasts and fat cells, that have grown and remain within connective tissue where they carry out their duties

Answer 32

Fixed cells

Question 33

are leukocytes that circulate in the bloodstream and migrate into connective tissue at signs of an immune response

Answer 33

transient cells

Question 34

Examples of fixed cells (F, A, M)

Answer 34

Fibroblast, Adipocytes, and Macrophages

Question 35

Examples of Transient Cells (N, E, B)

Answer 35

Neutrophils, Eosinophils, and Basophils
