CARTILAGE AND BONE

• Fibrous cartilage

  • Cells: Chondrocytes
  • Fiber: Collagen fiber
  • Protein: Collagen Type I
  • Locations: tendons to bones, intervertebral disc, joints, surface of tendons & ligament, spine, menisci
  • Function: resist compression and shear force, has durability and tensile strength
  • No Perichondrium
• Bone Tissue

  • Forms: Spongy Bone (cancellous bone) & Compact Bone (dense bone mass)
  • Cells: Osteoblast, Osteocytes, Osteoclast
  • Fiber: Collagen fiber
  • Protein: Collagen Type I
  • Locations: Bone Marrow, Femur, Patella, Sternum, etc.
  • Functions: support, protection, assistance in movement, mineral homeostasis (storage and release), blood cell production, and triglyceride storage
• Hyaline Cartilage

  
  

  CELL: Chondroblasts & Chondrocytes

  FIBER: Collagen fiber

  PROTEIN: Collagen Type II

  LOCATION: Trachea, Bronchi, Costal Cartilage, Articular Cartilage, Nose, Ears, and Larynx

  FUNCTION: Important in growth of long bones & embryonic formation.

  Undergo calcification

  has Perichondrium
• ELASTIC CARTILAGE

  
  

  CELL: Chondrocytes

  FIBER: Elastic fiber

  PROTEIN: Elastin

  LOCATION: External ear-pinna, nasal tip, larynx

  FUNCTION: provide tensile strength and resistance to

  stretching.

  ADD. INFO:

  Doesn’t go calcification

  Has Perichondrium
