Exam 8: Composition and Function of Connective Tissue

Which cells are responsible for autolysis leading to tissue necrosis?

Which cytokines are activated by T cells,are potent activators of neutrophils,and are important regulators of acute inflammatory reactions? These are sometimes involved in different forms of arthritis.

Of the cell types involved in an injury repair,which cell is described as the most abundant granulocyte that migrates to damaged tissue after mediation and function in the initial phagocytosis of foreign matter,bacteria,and cellular debris?

Of the cell types involved in an injury repair,which cell is described as the powerhouse of the cells and produces adenosine triphosphate (ATP)and protein synthesis?

Which cells stimulate cell proliferation,differentiation,and regulation of normal growth?

Which selection is the correct sequence of wound healing?

Which type of cell is continuously regenerating and proliferating?

What are the two classic functions of connective tissues?

Which term is defined as programmed cell death?

Which term is defined as a noncollagenous glycoprotein found in varying amounts in tissues requiring motion (elasticity),with a unique ability to deform under stress and then return to its original shape and orientation?

What is the name of the connective tissue membrane surrounding the entire muscle?

Which cell is responsible for stopping bleeding after an injury?

Which cells are the scavenger cells that function in phagocytosis,antigen presentation,and production of cytokine growth factors during the inflammatory process?

What is ground substance?

How many days does the acute inflammation phase last?

Select the best description of laminin.

Which cytokine stimulates cell proliferation of cartilage matrix and bone tissue?

Which term is described as an abundant component of the connective tissue matrix that contributes to the stability and strength of the extracellular matrix?

Which phase of the healing process is characterized by a degradation of excess collagen and the maturation of collagen?
