  • 2. 

    Not associated or supplied by blood vessels.

    • Endocrine

    • Avascular

    • Merocrine

    • Stroma

    Correct Answer
    A. Avascular
    Explanation
    The term "avascular" means lacking blood vessels. In the context of the question, it suggests that the given entity or structure is not associated or supplied by blood vessels. This term is often used to describe tissues or regions of the body that do not have a direct blood supply.

    Which of the following is not a location of cartilage?

    • Joints

    • Nose

    • Ligaments

    • Ribs

    Correct Answer
    A. Ligaments
    Explanation
    Cartilage is a flexible connective tissue that is found in various parts of the body. It acts as a cushion and provides support to different structures. Joints, nose, and ribs all contain cartilage. However, ligaments are not a location of cartilage. Ligaments are fibrous tissues that connect bones to other bones and do not contain cartilage.

    What is the function of collagenous protein fibers?

    • Defense

    • Support

    • Flexibility

    • Posture

    Correct Answer
    A. Support
    Explanation
    Collagenous protein fibers are responsible for providing support to various tissues and organs in the body. These fibers are strong and flexible, allowing them to maintain the structural integrity and shape of tissues. They form a network that helps in holding cells together and providing support to the surrounding structures. Collagenous protein fibers are particularly important in connective tissues, such as tendons, ligaments, and cartilage, where they provide strength and stability. Therefore, the function of collagenous protein fibers is support.

  • 5. 

    Specialized cells that produce large amounts of extracellular matrix compased of collagen.

    • Fibroblasts

    • Chondrocytes

    • Osteocyte

    • Osteon

    Correct Answer
    A. Chondrocytes
    Explanation
    Chondrocytes are specialized cells that produce large amounts of extracellular matrix composed of collagen. Collagen is a fibrous protein that provides strength and support to tissues. Chondrocytes are found in cartilage, which is a connective tissue that cushions and protects joints. They play a crucial role in maintaining the structure and function of cartilage by producing and maintaining the extracellular matrix. Therefore, chondrocytes are the correct answer as they are specifically responsible for producing collagen-rich extracellular matrix in cartilage.
