1. True of False, Connective tissue can be described as histologically
vari- able.: True
2. Which of the following statements is FALSE regarding general
character- istics of connective tissue proper?
Connective tissue proper is composed of a small amount of matrix and
large amount of densely packed cells.
The matrix of connective tissue proper is clear and gel-like.
Connective tissue proper is vascular and has a nerve
supply.
Connective tissue proper has no free or apical surface.: Connective
tissue proper is composed of a small amount of matrix and large
amount of densely packed cells.
Correct answer is that it is composed of large amount of matrix with
widely scattered cells.
