What are the five types of proper Adipose connective tissue (fibrous) connective tissue? Reticular (lymph nodes) Loose connective tissue Dense Irregular connective tissue Dense Regular connective tissue What type of tissue has lots of Adipose Tissue adipocytes? What is stored inside? Fat is stored inside What tissue are lymph nodes? Reticular What is the least specialized Areolar connective tissue? What type of cell type Loose connective tissue (Areolar) tissue’s main is Fibroblast and is common in areas just deep to epithelium? How is areolar (loose) connective formed by the differentiation of embryonic tissue formed? connective tissue Skeletal muscle is bound together by Areolar what type of tissue? How is dense connective tissue formed by the differentiation of embryonic formed? connective tissue What are the main characteristics of Has lots of collagen fibers Dense connective tissue? Irregular Fibers have irregular position; no pattern Extremely strong in all directions Found in areas of body where strength is needed (joint capsules and deeper layer of dermis) What are the main characteristics of Has lots of collagen fibers that have a Dense connective tissue and Regular pattern and run in same direction. Stronger an example of where it can be than Irregular, but in one direction. found? Ligaments and tendons (they are not muscle tissue) What tissue type are tendons? Dense regular connective tissue (they are not muscle tissue!) What are five three types of special Cartilage connective tissue? Bone Blood Muscles Nervous tissue What is the main cell type of Chondrocytes cartilage? What type of tissues extracellular Cartilage matrix is dense collagen, almost solid, very rigid, and avascular? What are the three types of cartilage, Hyaline Cartilage (joints; most common) and where is each one found? Which Elastic Cartilage (ear)
