collagen, proteins and hydroxyapatite

Following a bone fracture a fracture hematoma builds around the fracture site. A fracture hematoma is a:

collection of blood vessels and collagen at the fracture site.

Which of the following fractures refers to a fracture of a bone in multiple pieces?

comminuted

A general characteristic of connective tissue is that it

consists of cells with much intercellular material between them

Muscle tissue is characterized by its

contractility

According to their function, there are two major types of epithelial tissue, these are

covering and secretory epithelium

Epithelial tissue that can stretch or is subjected to stress would have many

is mature and is organized into thin sheets or layers

If the mineral salts are removed from a bone, what happens to the bone?

it becomes soft and rubbery

Some marrow of long bones is termed "red" marrow. The function of this is to

manufacture blood cells

Cancellous bone has spaces within that are deigned for the housing of
