Bone is not connective tissue. Instead, connective tissue -- ligaments and tendons -- connect to the bone.
Bone (osseous) tissue. Its hardness is largely due to MINERAL SALTS, such as calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate... its extracellular matrix also contains abundant COLLAGENOUS FIBERS
Bone Connective tissue

Bone.
Yes and no. Collagen will dissolve in water, but only at the right pH. At physiological pH (pH7.4) collagen is a stable structural protein which forms the scaffolding for skin and connective tissue in a body that is mostly water. What helps collagen stay stable in the body is also that it is crosslinked with glucosaminoglycans such as chondroitin or hyaluronic acid. Collagen can also be crosslinked in a lab with heat in the absence of water or with chemicals such as carbidiimide or glutaraldehyde. Collagen should start dissolving under pH5.
Adipose tissue contains triglycerides commonly used for insulation, protection, and cushioning shock.
The cells of a connective tissue are loosely scattered in a matrix. The matrix can be a fluid, jelly like, dense or rigid. The nature of matrix depends on the function a connective tissue serves.as Blood is composed of blood cells, platelets and plasma. Blood plays an important role in transportation of various substances in the body. It also helps in osmoregulation and temperature control.so blood is called connective tissue
Cartilage is a type of dense connective tissue. It is composed of collagen fibers and/or elastin fibers, and cells called chondrocytes, all of which are embedded in a firm gel-like ground substance called the matrix. Cartilage is avascular (contains no blood vessels) and nutrients are diffused through the matrix. Cartilage serves several functions, including providing a framework upon which bone deposition can begin and supplying smooth surfaces for the movement of articulating bones. Cartilage is found in many places in the body including the joints, the rib cage, the ear, the nose, the bronchial tubes and the intervertebral discs.Gotten from yahoo answers.
It is a replacement tissue in an injured tissue, which is made up of connective tissue reguardless of whether the injury was in fact on the epithelium level. It is considered non-funtional because it does not carry out the function of the tissue that was replaced.
Collagen is the connective tissue.
Bone cells are called osteocytes, and the matrix of the bone is made of calcium salts and collagen. Bone tissue is the major structural and supportive connective tissue of the body.
Collagen is a firorour connective tissue .
osteoid is the primary semisolid bone matrix that is secreted by osteoblast. hydroxyapatite is a crystalized mineral that surrounds collagen fibers of the matrix to solidify bone.
Cartilage is soft because of its construction and function as connective tissue. It contains a matrix full of chondrocytes and strong collagen fibers that add to its suppleness and flexibility.
bone matrix the intercellular substance of bone, consisting of collagenous fibers, ground substance, and inorganic salts.
collagen
No, Chondrocytes are found in a flexible connective tissue. Specifically, they are the chondroblasts in the collagen matrix of cartilage.
Osseous tissue, it's main constituent is collagen (type I collagen to be precise) produced by fibroblasts. Along with associated molecules (calcium, phosphorous and magnesium ions). Osteoblasts are the cells that move over bone tissue to deposit these molecules and crystalise them, including collagen Type I, together to form the bone mineral (a collagenous matrix structure) NB, collagen is a protein synthesised in the body by fibroblasts.

The matrix of connective tissue is composed of collagen, reticular, and elastic fibers embedded in ground substance (typically composed of water with stabilizing proteins). The fibers are made by fibroblasts and the most abundant in the body is collagen, while the least abundant is elastic.
Bone cells are called osteocytes, and the matrix of the bone is made of calcium salts and collagen. Bone tissue is the major structural and supportive connective tissue of the body.
No. Cartilage is not another name for bone. It is hard tissue like bone, but is mostly made of collagen fibers, whereas bone is mostly made of extracellular matrix that contains calcium and phosphorus.
