23 Οκτ 2022 · Bone, or osseous tissue, is a hard, dense connective tissue that forms most of the adult skeleton, the support structure of the body. In the areas of the skeleton where bones move (for example, the ribcage and joints), cartilage, a semi-rigid form of connective tissue, provides flexibility and smooth surfaces for movement.

5 Μαρ 2023 · Connective tissue proper is further subdivided into loose and dense connective tissues. Specialized connective tissues are diverse as they comprise varying specialized cells and ground substances. Specialized connective tissues include adipose, cartilage, bone, blood, and reticular tissues.
19 Αυγ 2021 · Bone, or osseous tissue, is connective tissue that includes specialized cells, mineral salts, and collagen fibers. The human skeleton can be divided into long bones, short bones, flat bones, and irregular bones. Compact bone tissue is composed of osteons and forms the external layer of all bones.
11 Οκτ 2020 · Bone is a specialized connective tissue type. Instead of an aqueous extracellular matrix, the ground substance is mineralized and hard. High levels of collagen fibers make our bones shock-resistant by absorbing energy. Furthermore, bones are covered by a connective tissue membrane called the periosteum.
Bone tissue is a type of connective tissue consisting mainly of a collagen matrix that is mineralized with calcium and phosphorus crystals. The combination of flexible collagen and hard mineral crystals makes bone tissue hard without making it brittle.
24 Φεβ 2023 · Most bones contain compact and spongy osseous tissue, but their distribution and concentration vary based on the bone’s overall function. Compact bone is dense so that it can withstand compressive forces, while spongy (cancellous) bone has open spaces and supports shifts in weight distribution.
The human skeleton serves six major functions: support, facilitation of movement, protection, production of blood cells, storage of ions, and endocrine regulation. Bone, or osseous tissue, is a hard, dense connective tissue that forms most of the adult skeleton, the support structure of the body.
