STUDYING MATERIAL
T/F - the capsule does not contain mechanoreceptors
- ANSWER False - the joint capsule contains many mechanoreceptors, which are
involved in joint proprioception
What is a Pacinian Corpuscle?
- ANSWER Layers of connective tissue around a nerve, which are responsive to
stretch, tension, and pressure
Well-represented in the joint capsule
What are the components of articular cartilage?
- ANSWER Glycosaminoglycan
Mainly type II collagen
Presence of chondrocytes
T/F - because cartilage healing involves different types of collagen, the newly
restored cartilage does not integrate as well into the damaged structure -
ANSWER True - cartilage is mostly type II collagen, but the healing process uses
mostly type I and type III collagen, which leads to poorer integration

Results in tide mark - transition between uncalcified and calcified cartilage
Found in areas of high mechanical demand, to minimize an abrupt rise in tissue
stress
