Question

Which of following is lack of blood supply?

• A. Bone
• B. Cartilage
• C. Connective tissue
• D. None

Answer 1

The correct option is A Bone

Answer :

i) Blood supply to bone is delivered to the endosteal cavity by nutrient arteries, then flows through marrow sinusoids before exiting via numerous small vessels that ramify through the cortex.

ii) Cartilage is made up of specialized cells called chondrocytes.

iii) These chondrocytes produce large amounts of extracellular matrix composed of collagen fibres, proteoglycan, and elastin fibers.

iv) There are no blood vessels in cartilage to supply the chondrocytes with nutrients.

v) There is a wide range of vascularity among connective tissues, although most are well vascularized.

Therefore correct answer is option B.Cartilage.
