What tissue contains cells arranged concentrically around a nutrient canal?
Structurally amorphous matrix, heavily invaded with fibers; appears glassy and smooth. Contains cells arranged concentrically around a nutrient canal; matrix is hard due to calcium salts. Forms the stroma or internal “skeleton” of lymph nodes, the spleen, and other lymphoid organs.
What contains cells arranged concentrically around a nutrient canal matrix is hard due to calcium salts?
Provides great strength through parallel bundles of collagenic fibers; found in tendons. Structurally amorphous matrix, heavily invaded with fibers; appears glassy and smooth. Hyaline Cartilage. Contains cells arranged concentrically around a nutrient canal; matrix is hard due to calcium salts.
What type of connective tissue has a hard matrix that contains calcium salts?
bone cells
Osteocytes (bone cells) sitting in lacunae (cavities) Hard matrix of calcium salts.
Which tissue type consists of cells a matrix and fibers?
Connective tissue
Connective tissue consists of cells embedded in an extracellular matrix. The matrix, in turn, consists of fibers and ground substance. Characteristic connective tissue cell types include both resident cells and immigrant or wandering cells.
Which connective tissue is the hardest tissue of our skull cap?
Hardest tissue of our skull cap. Osseous. Composes the basement membrane; surrounds and cushions blood vessels and nerves; its gel like matrix contains all categories of fibers and many cells.
What connective tissue has a firm matrix heavily invaded with fibers?

What is the extracellular matrix of connective tissue composed of?
Extracellular Matrix and Connective Tissue The ECM is composed of three associated macromolecules: (1) fibrous structural proteins such as collagen and elastin, (2) glycoproteins, and (3) proteoglycans and hyaluronic acid.
What connective tissue is firm slightly rubbery matrix?
2. Cartilage is a firm yet flexible type of connective tissue that consists of cells and a rubbery matrix. A chondroblast is an immature cell that produces the components of the cartilage matrix including collagen fibers and globular proteins, such as proteoglycans.
What connective tissue has cells arranged around central canal?
2 – Adipose tissue (400x) In each osteon, the lamellae are arranged around a central Haversian canal that houses nerves and blood vessels in living bone. The osteocytes (bone cells) are located in spaces called lacunae, which are connected by slender branching tubules called canaliculi.
Does connective tissue store adipocytes and calcium?
The primary tissue of bone, osseous tissue, is a relatively hard and lightweight composite material, formed mostly of calcium phosphate in the chemical arrangement termed calcium hydroxylapatite. Adipose tissue or body fat is loose connective tissue composed of adipocytes.
Which of the following is the hardest tissue in human body?
enamel
The enamel covering of our teeth also withstands extreme acid-base fluctuations, some of which come from various populations of bacteria that grow in our mouths. Overall, enamel is by far the toughest material in our bodies, and scientists have been examining its structure and composition for decades.
What is a matrix in connective tissue?
In biology, matrix (plural: matrices) is the material (or tissue) in between a eukaryotic organism’s cells. The structure of connective tissues is an extracellular matrix. It is found in various connective tissues. It is generally used as a jelly-like structure instead of cytoplasm in connective tissue.
What is the bone matrix made of?
Matrix of collagen with calcium and phosphate mineral deposits Bone Matrix called plasma Blood Matrix contains collagen with a ground substance of chondroitin and glucosamine which absorbs much water Cartilage Cells trapped in cavities called lacunae around a solid matrix Bone and Cartilage
What type of tissue is densely packed?
Collagen; and elastin fibers are densely packed, orderly stacked Dense Connective Tissue Cells that makes and secrete the matrix are called chondrocytes Cartilage Cells that make and secrete the matrix are called osteocytes Bone Cells that make and secrete the matrix are called fibroblasts Dense connective tissue
What type of cells make and secrete the matrix?
Cells that makes and secrete the matrix are called chondrocytes Cartilage Cells that make and secrete the matrix are called osteocytes Bone Cells that make and secrete the matrix are called fibroblasts
What is the matrix composed of collagen and elastin fibers?
Matrix composed of collagen and elastin fibers Loose connective tissue Collagen; and elastin fibers are densely packed, orderly stacked Dense Connective Tissue Cells that makes and secrete the matrix are called chondrocytes Cartilage Cells that make and secrete the matrix are called osteocytes Bone
