What is elastic connective tissue?

Elastic cartilage is found predominately in the external ear and as well as around the epiglottis. Elastic cartilage is similar to hyaline cartilage, but its matrix contains many elastic fibers along with the delicate collagen fibrils. This cartilage is more elastic than hyaline cartilage and better able to tolerate repeated bending. The epiglottis, which bends down to cover the glottis (opening) of the larynx each time we swallow, is made of elastic cartilage, as is the highly bendable cartilage in the outer ear.


What are the two types of bone?

The two types of bone are compact bone and spongy bone. Compact bone is dense and forms the outer layer of bones, providing strength and protection. Spongy bone is less dense and found inside bones, providing structural support and flexibility.


What tissue looks like a tree branch with spotty cells?

The tissue that looks like a tree branch with spotty cells is nervous tissue. Nervous tissue consists of neurons (nerve cells) interconnected in a branching network resembling tree branches. The "spotty" appearance is likely referring to the cell bodies (soma) of neurons located along these interconnected branches.


What connective tissue is avascular?

Connective tissue may or may not be avascular - it depends on the composition of the connective tissue. Avascular tissue is any tissue that does not contain blood vessels or lymphatics. Examples include epithelial tissue layers and the cornea. Elastic fibers, a form of connective tissue is avascular, but muscle is vascular.


ER without ribosomes looks what under the microscope?

ER without ribosomes, known as smooth ER, appears smooth and lacks the characteristic dot-like appearance seen in rough ER. It is often associated with lipid synthesis and detoxification reactions in the cell.

Are there any symptoms with heterogeneously dense breast?

Why is breast density significant?Dense breasts contain more glandular and connective tissue. Less dense breasts are mainly made up of fat tissue. Every woman has different amounts of the different types of tissue in her breasts. Breast cancer itself is made up of dense tissue. This means that on a mammogram, a tumor is harder to spot in dense tissue than in fatty tissue, because the tumor looks a lot like the tissue around it. An analogy is often used to describe the way dense tissue looks on film, "It's like looking for a polar bear in a snow storm." Breast cancers are readily seen in fatty tissue with up to 98% sensitivity in film mammography.Dense breast tissue itself is a risk factor for breast cancer, with the risk 4-6 fold higher in women with extremely dense breasts compared to fatty breasts, and breast cancer is more likely to develop in denser areas of the breast. Extremely dense (>75% dense) or heterogeneously dense (51-75% dense) is present in over half of women younger than age 50 years and one-third of women age 50 years and older.
