ANAT 101 Lecture Notes - Lecture 1: Blood Vessel, Loose Connective Tissue, Bone Marrow
Document Summary
Connective tissue-ind that in body parts that needs the connection. Connective tissue is composed of extracellular cell in surrounding area. Cells do not cover or line(they do not have any free surfaces) Epithelial tissue is highly vascularized and has nerve supply(except tendon and cartilage. Fiber cells are the stem cells of tissues that give tissue diferent strength. Mast cells-in immune system that act locally and produce histamine reaction in blood cells(kill bacteria) Plasma cell-antibodies, take longer to be produced. Neutrophils and eosinophils- white cells needed to ight infection. Macrophages-destroy bacteria, clean up debris found in connective tissue(cell. E. m located in the spaces between connective tissue. Bones made up of collagen ibers, skin, strongest and most abundant, resist pulling forces but still lexible. Elastic ibers-smaller in diameter, more stretchy and lexible(found in connective tissue where they move lung) Reticular ibers- delicate collagen protein/very ine and thing/not as strong/found in padding of organs.
