Fibroblast
is always a great word to know.
So is cutaneous membrane. Does it mean:
| supple and tough, covers the entire surface of the body |
| extracellular proteins forming strong insoluble fibers, serving as connective tissue between cells |

fibroblast
the principal nonmotile cells of connective tissue; fibroblasts are large, flat, elongated (spindle-shaped) cells possessing processes extending out from the ends of the cell body. The cell nucleus is flat and oval. Fibroblasts produce tropocollagen, which is the forerunner of collagen, and ground substance, an amorphous, gel-like matrix that fills the spaces between cells and fibres in connective tissue.
