Question

List the three types of fibers possible in connective tissue and a brief description of each

Answer 1

Look below

Step-by-step explanation:

collagen fibers, elastic fibers, and reticular fibers.

Collagen fibers-Collagen fiber is made from fibrous protein subunits linked together to form a long and straight fiber

Elastic fibers-a yellowish fiber composed chiefly of elastin and occurring in networks or sheets which give elasticity to tissues in the body.

Reticular fibers-Reticular fibers, reticular fibres or reticulin is a type of fiber in connective tissue composed of type III collagen secreted by reticular cells.

Answer 2

Single-mode cables include one glass strand (the core), surrounded by three layers of other material (the cladding, the buffer, and the jacket). They are relatively more expensive than other cables. Single-mode cables can transmit data at fast speeds over long distances (up to 62 miles) and offer higher bandwidths.

Multi-mode cables have more than one strand and transmit light along many paths. They support very fast speeds of between 10 Mbps to 10 Gbps over short distances (2,000 and 1,000 feet, respectively). Although these cables can transmit data over short distances, they will distort data over long distances.

Plastic optical fiber cables consist of plastic fibers instead of glass fibers. They are cheaper than glass optical fiber cables. They are similar to multi-mode cables; however, they are only reliable over short distances.
