    CONNECTIVE TISSUE

    Connective tissue may be defined as that group of tissuespredominantly composed of intercellular matrix ,secretedmainly by its cells which are therefore widely spaced.

    It is mesodermal in origin and provides structural andmetabolic support for other tissue and organs through out thebody .

    Dense outer sheet of compact bone

    Central medullary cavity

    The cavity is filled with red or yellow bone marrow

    Outer aspect compact bone is connective tissue membrane, theperiosteum which has 2 layers-outer fibrous layer &inner cellular

    layer

    The internal surfaces are covered by essentially cellular

    membrane, the endosteum

    BONE

    Comp act bone : dense areas without cavities-Deposited in thin layers called lamellae- form concentric patterns

    around capillaries -located within tiny longitudinal tubes called

    central / Haversian canals .

    -The canal, branch and anastomose with each other and with the

    external surface of bone.

    -Osteocytes and layers of intercellular material are concentrically

    clustered around central canal to form a cylinder-shaped unit

    called Osteon, or Haversian system.
