3Collagen — is the principal protein of the skin, tendons, cartilage, bone and connective tissue. * * * The major protein (comprising over half of that in mammals) of the white fibers of connective tissue, cartilage, and bone, that is insoluble in water but… …
4Fiber — The parts of plants that cannot be digested, namely complex carbohydrates. Also known as bulk or roughage. Complex carbohydrates from plants are rich in starch and fiber. Examples of plants that provide complex carbohydrates (fiber) are fresh… …
5Collagen — Tropocollagen triple helix Collagen /ˈkɒlədʒɨn/ is a group of naturally occurring proteins found in animals, especially in the flesh and connective tissues of mammals.[1] It is the main component of connectiv …
6collagen fibrils — delicate fibrils of collagen in connective tissue, composed of molecules of tropocollagen in linear arrays. In Type I collagen, the most common type, the tropocollagen molecules are associated in periodic, staggered arrays that give the… …
7collagen fibers — collagenous fibers the soft, flexible, white fibers that are the most characteristic constituent of all types of connective tissue. They consist of the protein collagen and are composed of bundles of fibrils that are in turn made up of smaller… …
8Reticular fiber — Reticular fibers or reticulin is a histological term used to describe a type of structural fiber composed of type III collagen. Reticular fibers crosslink to form a fine meshwork (reticulum). This network acts as a supporting mesh in soft tissues …
9Natural fiber — Fibers or fibres (see spelling differences) are a class of hair like materials that are continuous filaments or are in discrete elongated pieces, similar to pieces of thread. They can be spun into filaments, thread, or rope. They can be used as a …
10Intrafusal muscle fiber — Intrafusal fibers are muscle fibers that comprise the muscle spindle and are innervated by the gamma motor neurons (gamma motoneuron). These fibers are walled off from the rest of the muscle by a collagen sheath. This sheath has a spindle or… …
