main supportive structure are intermediate filaments
is composed of crists (see anatomy ;-) and undulations
takes place on apical pole of some epithelial cells
is composed of cillia

10 Desmosome:

is responsible for mechanical cohesivity
is not associated with the cytoskeleton

11 Kinocilia (cilia):

they are on cells of pseudostratified epithelium of respiratory passages
their supportive structure are intermediate filaments
one cell can have only one cillium
are immotile

12 Which cell adhesion does not take place in the intercalated disc?

zonula occludens
fascia adherens
gap junction
desmosome

13 Heparinocytes:

are fixed cells of connective tissue
usually have two or three nuclei
produce heparine and histamine
produce antibodies

14 Fibrocartillage:

fibrillar component of its ECM contains type I collagen
is main cartillage of articular cartillages
has pronounced perichondrium
is highly vaskularized

15 Elastic fibers:

are clearly visible in slides stained with basic techniques
can be stained with aldehyde fuchsin
can be stained with alcian blue
are PAS positive

16 Osteoclast:

its nucleus has wheel-like arranged chromatin
is a multinucleated cell
is activated osteocyte
produces osteoid

17 Secondary bone is:

woven
spongy
compact
lamellar

18 White adipose tissue:

adipocytes have usually short life-span
its main function is heating
adipocytes are unilocular
is avascular

19 Glycoproteins:

contain usually glycogen
contain usually hyaluronic acid
contain usually oligosaccharides
contain usually glycosaminoglycans

20 Which protein is main protein of reticular fibers?

collagen I
collagen II
collagen III
collagen IV

21 Loose connective tissue is main material of:

subepithelial layer of mucosa
organ capsulla
dermis
tendon

22 Myofibrils:

are inside smooth muscle cells
are composed of sarcomeres
are type of cytoskeleton
contain calmodulin

23 Tropomyosin:

increases mechanical stiffness of the muscle
is storage of energy in the mucle fibre
prevents binding of myosin to actin
binds calcium

24 Glial cells:

protoplasmic astrocytes have wide processes
fibrillary astrocytes are mainly in gray matter
oligodendrocytes do not have processes
myelin is produced by mikroglia

25 Neurons:

action potential begins in initial segment (hilus) of the axon
GFAP is an immunohistochemical marker of neurons
neurons have no more than one dendrite
neurons are mitoticaly active

Ciliated epithelium from the human windpipe. Wellcome M0011238.jpg

stratified squamous with keratinization
pseudostratified columnar
simple columnar
none of above mentioned

27 Eosinophils:

their percentage in the blood (inside vessels) is about 40-60 %
specific granules contain main basic protein (MBP)
contain metachromatic granules
have small round nucleus

28 What is not true for monocytes?

they are the biggest blood (inside vessels) cells
they are main players of humoral immunity
they contain azurophilic granules
they give rise macrophages

medullary period of hematopoiesis starts after the birth
takes place inside cavities of some long bones only
its stroma contains reticular connective tissue
contains plenty of adipocytes
