Describe Mature Connective Tissue
•Cartilage
•Bone
•Blood
•Lymph
-
Describe Loose Connective Tissue
- •Loosely woven
- fibers throughout tissues
-
What are the types of LCT
- –areolar
- connective tissue
-
What are the types of Dense Connective Tissue?
- –dense regular
- connective tissue
- –dense irregular
- connective tissue
- –elastic
- connective tissue
-
Found where pulling forces are exerted in many directions, tissue can resist tension from
any direction.
Dense Irregular Connective Tissue
-
Strong and can recoil to original shape after stretching
Lung tissue, arteries, vocal cords, ligament
between vertebrae
Elastic Connective Tissue
-
is a dense network of collagen fibers and elastic fibers
firmly embedded in chondroitin sulfate (rubbery ground substance)
Cartilage
-
Cartilage cells found in the spaces called
lucunae
-
Types of cartilage are?
–hyaline cartilage
–fibrocartilage
–elastic cartilage
-
Interstitial fluid being transported in lymphatic vessels
Lymph
-
Returns or supplies fluid, cells and substances (lipids) to circulation
Lymph
-
flat sheets of pliable tissue that cover or line a part of
the body
Membranes
-
A combination of an epithelial layer and an underlying connective tissue layer
Epithelial membranes
-
What are the types of membranes?
Mucous, Serous, and Cutaneous
-
Lines a body cavity that opens directly to the outside, simple columnar is very common.
Mucous Membranes
-
Simple squamous cells overlying loose CT layer, areolar connective tissue covered by mesothelium
Serous Membranes
-
Examples of what?
–pleura,
peritoneum and pericardium
–membrane on
walls of cavity, parietal layer
–membrane over
organs in cavity, visceral layer
Serous Membranes
-
Stratified squamous overlying Dense Irregular Connective tissue layer
Cutaneous Membrane
-
Line joint cavities of all freely movable joints
No epithelial cells---just special cells that secrete
slippery fluid
Synoival Membranes
