A

Osteogenesis impecfecta

25
A collagen type III defect disorder manifested by hypermobility of digits and rupture of aorta or intestine
Ehlers-Danlos
26
A disorder due to lack of vit.C taht leads to degeneration of ct and failure of wound healing
Scurvy
27
The protein that gives the yellowish fresh tissue color of elastic fibers
Elastin
28
These fibers can be stretched by a small force and return to its original form when the force is removed
Elastic fibers
29
Reticular fibers are composed mainly of what type of collagen
Type III
30
A carbohydrate moeity that reduces Ag+ of type 3 collagen to metallic silver
Argyrophilic
31
True or false: reticular fibers forms coarse bundles
False: they form delicate networks not bundles
32
Translucent matrix that surrounds the cells and fibers of connective tissues
Ground substance / matrix
33
Extracellular matrix contains glycosaminoglycans such as
``` Hyaluronic acid Chondroitin sulfate Dermatan sulfate Kerratin sulfate Heparin sulfate ```
34
Linear, very hydrophilic polysaccharides that are usually bound covalently to protein core as part of proteoglycan
Glycosaminoglycan
35
Small glycosylated proteins containing numerous binding sites to cells, ignalling molecules
Multiadhesive glycoproteins
36
Multiadhesive glycoproteins important for adhesion of epithelial cells to basal lamina via tm integrin receptors
Fibronectin and laminin
37
Specific type of connective tissue that surrounds blood vessels and nerves and fills unoccupied spaces
Loose connective tissue
38
When collgen is denatured by boiling, it yields
Gelatin
