Chapter 4, Problem 15CYU
Summary Introduction
To review:
The type of connective tissue which forms the epiphyseal plates.
Introduction:
The dense irregular connective tissue consists the tissue which forms the sheets in body areas. These tissues bears the tension from different directions. Hyaline cartilage is the most abundant cartilage in the body. It provides the support and chondrocytes makes only 1-10% of the cartilage volume. Before the bone formation the embryonic skeleton is formed mostly of the hyaline cartilage.

tive tissue.
(b) Explain the function of the two fibers you identified in part (a).

Cyndi fractured the middle of the diaphysis of her right tibia in a skiing accident. The surrounding soft tissue (in the middle of her leg) was also damaged by the force of the accident. After prolonged immobilization of the limb in a cast, it was found that the fracture was not healing. Can you explain why?
Which type of cartilage is “amorphous but firm?” Which fibers are present here? Give 2 common locations in the body for this tissue.
