quiz two

connective Tissue: The most diverse tissue characterized by having a few cells surrounded by extracellular matrix

Extracellular matrix: two main components, protein fibers und ground substance, matrix may be Solid, semisolid, gelatinous, or fluid.

Reticular fibers: are very fine and arranged into a branching framework in soft tissues

collagen fibers: are strong and have rope like structure, able to withstand pulling forces

Elastic fibers: have the ability to stretch and return to original shape

Fibroblast: responsible for producing the extracellular matrix.

chonerocites: Cartilage cells found in spaces caled lacunde

andipocytes: specialized for the starage of lipid molecules

osteons: taurd i dense bore, tave a Significant amount of matrix with ten spores

central canal: found in the center of an osteon the canals run the lenath ct the bone und contain blood vessels and nerves.

osteoutes: The cells found within the lucange

leukocytes: White blood cells erythrocytes: red blood cells

Perikaryon: a basic component in a neuron. contains the typical enganelles including the nudeus

epidermis: thinner superficial laver comprised of a beretinized, Strathied squamous epitherium

Dermis: Thicher, deeper layer comprised of connective tissue

Areolar Connective tissue

  •   alloose, irregular connective tissue that acts as a gereral space filling tissue in our bodies

  •   irregular tissue because the connective tissue fibers run in all directions

- location: between muscles

Reticular Connective Tissue

  •   Characterized by a 3-D interlocking networh of reticular fibers

  •   Fibers form a storma for support iD the ASsue

  •   location: Kidney

Adipose Connective Tissue

- consits of modified connective tissue

Cels Known as andipocites

  •   cells appear empty

  •   location: Surrounding the eyeball

Dense Regular connective tissue

  •   consists of densely pached collagen fibers

  •   fibers oriented in the same clirection between fibers theres scattered fibroblasts

  •   location s Tendons
    Dense Integular connective Tissue

  •   densely packed collagen fibers, irregularly arranged

  •   Scattered between fibers cire fibroblasts

  •   locations Dermis

Hyaline Connective

TisSue

  •   dense network of collagen fibers in a gel line matrix

  •   Collagen are not visible in the matrix

  •   location: larynx
    Elastic cartilage connective Tissue

  •   very resillant and flexible due to elastic fibers

  •   location: epiglotis

Fibrocantilage ConnectiVe TIsSue

  •   Characterized by the numercus bundles of collagen fibers within the matrix

  •   Collagen fibers give great tensil strength to tissue.

  •   location: Pubic Symphysis
    Dense Bone connective Tissue

  •   has osteons which at the center is a space
    Called the central canal.

  •   space in osteon are lucunae

  •   cens within lucunde are osteocutes

  •   location : bones of the smeleton
    Bood connective Tissue

  •   a liquid connective tissue with a stud matrix called plasma

  •   Platelets are the smallest little fragments

  •   location: within the boodivessas
    Nervous TIsSue

  •   consists of perikaryon (ell body) with extending out axens and dendrites.

  •   location: nervous system

Integumentary System

  •   comprised of the shin and various accessory
    Structure

  •   epiclermis, dermis, and hypodermis are all Part of the shin

  •   hypodermis is comprised of adipose and connective tissue

  • Structure Of The Epidermis
