Question | Answer |
Types of cartilage | Hyaline, elastic, and fibrocartilage |
Most abundant type of cartilage; has an abundant “glassy” matrix; “archetype” | Hyaline cartilage |
This type of cartilage is found where resilience and springiness are needed | Elastic cartilage |
This type of cartilage has limited distribution and can withstand strong tensile forces | Fibrocartilage |
2 types of cartilage cells | Chondroblasts and chondrocytes |
This type of cartilage cell is found in growing cartilage and actively makes the matrix of cartilage | Chondroblasts |
This type of cartilage cell lives within a lacuna | Chondrocyte |
Fibrous connective tissue that surrounds/covers hyaline and elastic cartilage | Perichondrium |
2 layers of the perichondrium | Outer fibrous layer and inner cellular layer |
Inner cellular layer of perichondrium | |
Outer fibrous layer if the perichondrium | |
2 co-existing ways that cartilage grows | Appositional and interstitial |
This growth occurs at the edges of cartilaginous structures | Appositional growth |
This type of growth happens within the cartilage matrix. Existing chondrocytes undergo several mitotic divisions | Interstitial growth |
What structure is circled in black? | Growth or epiphyseal plate |
What are isogenous groups? | Groups of lacunae (houses of the chondrocytes) |
T/F Fibrocartilage has a perichondrium cover | False |
T/F Cartilage has vascular, so it has high repair capability | False |
