| Term | Definition |
|---|---|
| Connective Tissue Classes | Connective tissue, cartilage, bone and blood |
| Extracellular Matrix (ECM) | cells are suspended/ embedded in this. Sugar mesh |
| Structural Elements Connective Tissues | Ground substance, fibers and Cells |
| Ground Substance | Gel like material that fills space between cells. supports weight. |
| Connective Tissue Fibers | In between bones and organs. |
| Collegen | most abundant connective tissue. Tough |
| Elastic Fibers | Bugy cords, stretch and recoil |
| Reticular | Short ones. fine highly branched fibers |
| Blast cells | Cell providing. |
| Fibroblast | found in connective tissue proper. Fibers and collegen |
| Chondroblast | found in cartilage |
| Osteoblast | found in bone. |
| Hematopietic | In bone marrow. early cells that come out before blood cells. |
| Cyte | Means cells. Mature cells |
| Fat cells | Hollow energy source. |
| White blood cells | Tissue response to injury |
| Mast cells | Release histamine |
| Macrophages | Eat, big eater. |
| Connective tissue Proper | except bone, cartilage and blood. |
| CT proper Loose | Areolar, Adipose and Reticular |
| CT proper Dense | Dense regular, Irregular and elastic |
| Areolar Connective Tissues | Most widely distributed ct |
| Adipose Tissue | White Fat, Brown Fat |
| Reticular Connective Tissue | Fibers are thinner reticular fibers, Lymph nodes, spleen, and bone marrow |
| Dense regular connective tissue | Poorly vascularized, Tendons and ligaments. |
| Dense irrgular connective tissues | Dermis. Fibrous joint capsules. |
| Elastic connective tissue | Walls of many large arteries. Has to give aroitia |
| Cartliage | 80% water with packed collagen fibers. |
| Chondrocytes | Cells of cartliage |
| Avascular | receives nutrients from membrane surrounding it, Prolonged healing time |
| Hyaline Cartilage | Most abundant. Found in tips of long bones, nose and on the ribs. |
| Elastic Cartilage | More Elastic, Ears and Eplglottis |
| Fibrocartilage | Strong found in Intervertbral Discs. Bones of spine. Front of pelvis |
| Bone | also called osseous tissue |
| Osteons | Individual structural units |
| Blood | type of connective tissue. fluid |
| Muscle tissue | Skeletal, Cardiac and Smooth |
| Skeletal Muscle Tissue | Control of brain. Voluntary Muscle |
| Muscle Fibers | Multi nucleated, Muscle activity |
| Cardiac Muscle Tissue | walls of heart. one nucleus per cell. contracts on own. |
| Smooth Muscle Tissue | walls of hollow organs. no Visible strations. Anything you can control, Flushed |
| Nurons | conduct nerve impulses, Transport |
| Gilia | Supportive cells |
| Cutaneous membrane | Skin, Epidermis and Dermis |
| Mucous Membranes | Mouth, anus and vagina |
| Serous Membranes | Line body cavity thin secretion. |
| inflammation | release of chemicals, dilation of blood vessels, Clotting of blood. |
| Organization | restores blood supply, blood clot is replaced with granulation tissue. |
| Regeneration | the scab detaches, skin thickens, some scar tissue. |
