19
Ii. Connective Tissues A. General Info 3. Contain intracellular matrix and ground substance 4. May reproduce 5. Good blood supply 6. May be rigid or flexible
20
Ii. Connective Tissues B. Cells Fibroblasts: large, star- shaped cell produces fibers http://biodidac.bio.uottawa.ca/ftp/BIODIDAC/ZOO/HISTO/CELL/T4-20.GIF
21
Ii. Connective Tissues B. Cells 2. Mast Cells: large cells release - heparin: no clot - histamine: inflammatory response http://mmserver.cjp.com/images/image/2559041.jpg
22
Ii. Connective Tissues B. Cells 3. Macrophages: phagocytic cells that “eat” foreign particles; some WBCs http://www.itb.cnr.it/flex/images/D.0ce220a1911164afd50b/bor aschi_1.jpg
23
Ii. Connective Tissues C.Tissue Fibers 1.Collagenous: collagen protein fibers grouped in long parallel bundles; flexible (slightly elastic); high tensile strength - Ex: tendons http://www.b ath.ac.uk/pr/ releases/new kneepics/coll agen.JPG
24
Ii. Connective Tissues C. Tissue Fibers 2. Elastic: elastin microfibrils embedded in proteins; decreased strength; increased flexibility - Ex: vocal cords 3.Reticular: very thin collagen fibers
