Anatomy Ch. 4 Connective Tissue

Front 1

There are four types of dense connect ive tissue?
T/F

Back 1

False- Only three

Front 2

has no blood supply and no nerve supply?

Back 2

Cartilage

Front 3

a loose connective tissue specialized for triglyceride storage?

Back 3

Adipose tissue

Front 4

Tissue that contains reticular fibers and reticular cells and forms the stroma of certain organs such as the spleen?

Back 4

reticular connective tissue

Front 5

tissue with irregularly arranged collagen fibers found in the dermis of the skin?

Back 5

dense irregular connective tissue
-also found on the periosteum

Front 6

tissue that provides strength and rigidity and is the strongest of the three cartilage?

Back 6

fibrocartilage

Front 7

tissue that forms the internal framework of the body and works with the skeletal muscle to generate movement?

Back 7

bone (osseous tissue)

Front 8

This tissue forms tendons (attach muscle to bone) most ligaments (attach bone to bone) and aponeuroses (sheetlike tendons that attach muscle to muscle or to bone)?

Back 8

Dense regular connective tissue
-provide strong attachment b/t various structures.

Front 9

This type of tissue can be found on the pericardium (around the heart) and the periosteum (membranes surrounding bone)?

Back 9

Dense irregular connective tissue

Front 10

This type of connective tisse can recoil to original shape, allows stretching of various organs and is located on the vocal chords?

Back 10

elastic connective tissue.

Front 11

tissue that affords flexibility at joints and reduces joint friction?

Back 11

hyaline cartilage

Front 12

the tissue in which all other connective tissues eventually arise?

Back 12

mesenchyme

Front 13

connective tiisue consisting of several kinds of cells, containing all three fiber types randomly arranged, and found in the subcutaneous layer of the skin?

Back 13

areolar connective tissue

Front 14

bundles of collagen arranged in parallel patterns; compose tendons and ligaments?

Back 14

dense regular connective tissue
