1.Featuresof cartilageCartilage:organ=Cartilage tissue+perichondriumCartilage tissue is a specialized connective tissue.Cartilage tissue= Cells + matrix(fibers+ g.s.)
Cartilage: organ = Cartilage tissue + perichondrium Cartilage tissue is a specialized connective tissue. Cartilage tissue = Cells + matrix (fibers+ g.s.) 1.Features of cartilage
Avascular;Nutrients diffusion from perichondrium orsynovial fluid;No innervation;No lymphatic vessels;Chondrocytes have low metabolic activityFunction: support, connection, slidingsurfaceforjoints
Avascular; Nutrients diffusion from perichondrium or synovial fluid; No innervation; No lymphatic vessels; Chondrocytes have low metabolic activity. Function: support, connection, sliding surface for joints
2. Structure of cartilagetissueCellsChondrocytes: located within matrix (lacunae)Extracellularmatrix(cartilagematrix):[Fibers : Collagen and elastic fibersGround substance:hyaluronicacid,proteoglycans,glycoproteins

1)Chondrocyte: LM: • embedded in cartilage lacunae • peripheral cells: -small and immature -single and flattened • central cell: -large and mature, -round and in group of 2-8 cells -small and round nucleus -basophilic cytoplasm
Cartilage lacunae: matrix cavityCartilage capsule: on the surface of the lacunae;strong basophilic (more CMP,more acidicsulphate)cap
