| 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 |
