What else can I help you with?
Fibrous connective tissue is known as?
Fibrous connective tissue is known as matrix. Matrix helps to connect joints and enables movement of the joints. If this becomes damaged, the joint or limb may become unusable.
What general type of tissue includes fibrous elastic cartilaginous and adipose tissue?
Connective tissue
Fibrous connective tissue overlying loose connective tissue is?
The deeper part of the dermis of the skin. Basically, this part of the dermis has dense or fibrous irregular conective tissue, which provides strength to the skin. Below this tissue there is loose connective tissue (areolar connective tissue and adipose tissue) that are part of the subcutaneous layer of the skin. As you know, the dermis is part of the cutaneous membrane.
Inflammation of connective tissue is called?
Inflammation of the fibrous connective tissue in a joint commonly called rheumatism is also known as "arthritis" . Rheumatoid arthritis is one of the many diseases that are connected with this problem.
What is the strong fibrous tissue outer periphery of the intervertebral disk called?
The strong fibrous tissue outer periphery of the intervertebral disk is called the annulus fibrosus.
Fibrous connective tissue is known as?
Fibrous connective tissue is known as matrix. Matrix helps to connect joints and enables movement of the joints. If this becomes damaged, the joint or limb may become unusable.
An articulation in which the bones are united by a thin layer of fibrous tissue is known as?
symphisis
Fibrous connective tissue that separates individual muscle fibers is known as?
endomysium
What bone regions are united by fibrous connective tissue?
There is no fibrous connective tissue in bone, but there is dense irregular tissue known as periosteum that covers bones (all except the articulating surfaces) and provides attachment sites for tendons and ligaments.
What is the fibrous tissue that covers muscles?
connective tissue
Which fibrous substance is found in areolar tissue giving it its strength?
Collagen is the fibrous substance that give areolar tissue its strength.
On the basis of structural classification which joint is fibrous connective tissue?
A fibrous joint is a structural classification where bones are joined by fibrous connective tissue. Examples of fibrous joints include sutures in the skull and syndesmoses in the distal tibiofibular joint.
What types of protein makes up connective tissue?
Fibrous protein
The permanent replacement of normal tissue by fibrous tissue is?
fibrosis
What is the tissue in ligament?
parts of collagen and elastins and fibrous tissue
What is the fibrous connective tissue the holds bones in a joint together?
Ligaments are the fibrous connective tissue that holds bones in a joint together.
What causes abnormal formation of fibrous tissue in muscles?
Abnormal formation of fibrous tissue in muscles, known as fibrosis, can result from various factors, including chronic inflammation, injury, or repetitive strain that triggers an excessive healing response. Conditions such as muscular dystrophy or autoimmune diseases can also lead to fibrosis by disrupting normal muscle repair processes. Additionally, prolonged immobilization or disuse of muscles can contribute to the accumulation of fibrous tissue. These factors collectively result in the replacement of healthy muscle tissue with fibrous connective tissue, impairing muscle function.
