Cartilage develops later into childhood, while bone forms the fetal skeleton

Cartilage is softer and more flexible than bone

Cartilage is avascular, while bone contains blood vessels

Cartilage is non-innervated, while bone is innervated

Skeletal muscles

Adipocytes

Fibers

Ground substance

Connective tissue

Nervous tissue

Muscle tissue

Epithelial tissue

Embryonic tissue

All answers are correct

Osteoblasts can only function when in functional osteons

Osteoblasts are specialized cells that build bone

Osteoblasts can be inhibited when bound by parathyroid hormone (PTH)

All of these

Fibroblasts

Mast cells

Adipocytes

Communicating pain sensation to the brain

Protecting the body's internal organs

Transporting molecules to muscle and other parts of the body

Providing framework for the body

Transfer force between structures

Between other tissues throughout the body

Lining of organs

Peripheral nervous system

Muscles

Cartilage does not have blood vessels or nerves, while bone does

Bone is part of the skeletal system, while cartilage is not

Cartilage secretes a matrix

Cartilage is composed of collagen and salts

Bone provides structure to the human body

Stratified epithelium

Blood vessels

Ligaments

Tendons

No, not all connective tissue is fibrous, including blood and adipose tissue

Yes, all connective tissue contains at least one type of fiber (collagenous, reticular or elastic)

Yes, all connective tissue contains all three types of fibers (collagenous, reticular, and elastic)

No, not all connective tissue if fibrous because in some areas of the body the ground substance degrades fibers
