Elastic fibre are long straight and branched they are elastic and flexible. Figure 1 Components of connective tissues.
Elastic fibers are found in the skin lungs arteries veins connective tissue proper elastic cartilage periodontal ligament fetal tissue and other tissues which must undergo mechanical stretching.
Yellow elastic connective tissue. Elastic fibers or yellow fibers are bundles of proteins elastin found in extracellular matrix of connective tissue and produced by fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells in arteries. These unique crosslinks are responsible for elastins elasticity. These tissues contains numerous and closely packed yellow elastic fibres.
Elastic fibre are long straight and branched they are elastic and flexible. They are present in Ligament also present in wall of blood vessel vocal cords respiratory passage and lungs. Yellow elastic fibers contain elastin a protein that is not as strong as collagen but is more elastic.
Elastic fibers return to their original shape and may stretch to over 100 times their relaxed size without damage. Figure 1 Components of connective tissues. All connective tissues have three components.
The yellow elastic connective tissue forms cords called ligaments which join bones to bones. Ii Yellow Fibrous Sheets. The sheets formed by this tissue occur in the walls of blood vessels lungs bronchioles true vocal cords cartilage of larynx trachea capsules of spleen and ligamenta flava which connect adjacent.
Is made up mainly of yellow elastic fibers. The ligaments that hold the bones of the backbone together are yellow elastic tissue. Reticular tissue is a connective tissue which occurs as thin sheets.
It surrounds nerve and muscle fibers and also forms the basement membrane of epithelia. Some connective tissue cells are able to store fat. Dense irregular connective tissue Skin stained with the Movat pentachrome stain distinguishes elastic fibers stained black from collagen fibers stained yellow-green.
The smaller elastic fibers are mixed with the large collagen bundles but cannot be distinguished. The elastic cartilage refers to a cartilage that is more opaque flexible and elastic than hyaline cartilage and is further distinguished by its yellow color while the elastic connective tissue refers to a connective tissue composed of elastic fibers produced by fibroblasts that can stretch up to 15 times their length and snap back to their original length when relaxed. This flexible tissue consists of yellow elastic fibres lying in a solid matrix.
The chondrocytes lie between the fibres. It provides support and maintains the shape of eg. The pinna or lobe of the ear the epiglottis and part of the tunica media of blood vessel walls.
It is the toughest connective tissue. Elastic connective tissue is a modified dense connective tissue that contains numerous elastic fibers in addition to collagen fibers which allows the tissue to return to its original length after stretching Figure 410. The lungs and arteries have a layer of elastic connective.
Elastic fibers or yellow fibers are bundles of proteins elastin found in extracellular matrix of connective tissue and produced by fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells in arteries. These fibers can stretch up to 15 times their length and snap back to their original length when relaxed.

Marine Corps The meaning and functioning of secondary insolvency proceedings. The concept of secondary insolvency proceedings as an exceptional phenomenonSigne Viimsalu Holt Science Technology. Elastic fibers are found in the skin lungs arteries veins connective tissue proper elastic cartilage periodontal ligament fetal tissue and other tissues which must undergo mechanical stretching.
In the lung there are thick and thin elastic fibers. Elastic fibers are absent from scarring keloids and dermatofibromas and they are decreased greatly or are absent in anetodermas. Strong extensible flexible connective tissue rich in yellow elastic fibres.
Elastic tissue is found in the dermis of the skin in arterial walls and in the walls of the alveoli of the lungs. Source for information on elastic tissue. A Dictionary of Nursing dictionary.
In humans adipose tissue is located beneath the skin subcutaneous fat around internal organs visceral fat in bone marrow yellow bone marrow and in breast tissue. Key Terms cartilage. A type of dense non-vascular connective tissue usually found at the end of joints the rib cage the ear the nose in the throat and between intervertebral disks.
Dense irregular connective tissue Elastic mainly made up of yellow elastic fibers in parallel strands or branching networks. Have collagenous fibers and fibroblasts between these fibers. Found in the attachment between the bones of the spinal column within the walls of certain hollow internal organs large arteries and some portions.
According to statements find the correct option 1. Blood connects every cells tissue and organs of body2. Blood is known as connective tissue proper3.
Blood plasma constituted about 45 of blood4. Blood is light yellow coloured and slightly viscous extra cellular fluid. Which of these is not found in connective tissue.
Collagen protein in flexible bundles slightly elastic but great tensile strength thick yellow fibers elastin protein less strength but highly elastic. Elastic fibres provide the tissue with extensibility so that it can be extended in all directions but if tension is constantly exerted in one direction the elastic fibres may be laid down in sheets known as lamellae eg. Ligamentum flavum the yellow ligament.
B Skeletal tissue Supportive connective tissue includes cartilage and bones which form the endoskeleton of the vertebrate body. The Cartilages are classified in to four group. Hyaline white fibrous yellow elastic fibro cartilage and calicified cartilage.
C Blood fluid connective tissue is a fibre-free fluid extra cellular matrix. A Dense Regular Connective Tissue. In this tissue the collagen fibres are present in rows between many parallel bundles of fibres.
It is of further two types ie white fibrous connective tissue includes tendons and sheets and yellow elastic connective tissue includes ligaments and sheets.
