QuestionAnswer
functions of skeletal system (5) 1. support 2. protection 3. movement 4. storage (fat & minerals) 5. blood cell production
cartilage (3 kinds) 1. hyaline cartilage 2. fibrocartilage and 3. elastic cartilage
blast a suffix meaning an immature precursor of the type indicated by the preceding word Gr. blastos "germ"
chondro combining form meaning 1. cartilage or cartilaginous 2. granular or gritty Gr. "groats" gristle, cartilage
chondroblasts cells that produce new cartilage matrix
chondrocyte a mature cartilage cell; surrounded by the matrix & occupies a space called a lacuna within the matrix
lacuna a small space, cavity or deparession L. a pit diminutive of lake
perichondrium Double-layered connective tissue sheath covering most cartilage
articular cartilage covers ends of bones where they come together to form joints, - NO Perichondrium, NO Blood vessels & NO nerves
Cartilage grows in two ways 1. Appositional growth (in perchondrium & outside) 2. intersitital growth (within matrix)
Appositional growth of cartilage Chondroblasts in the perchondrium: 1) lay down new matrix and 2. add new chondrocytes to the OUTSIDE of the tissue
Interstitial growth Chondrocytes with tissue divide & add more matrix between the cells
bone shapes (4) Long, short, flat or irregular
Long bones Longer than they are wide Examples: Femur
short bones Not elongated & NO dipahyses - some have small epiphyses - some have air-filled spaces called sinuses, lined by mucous membranes - About as broad as they are long Ex. carpal or wrist bones
flat bones realtively thin, flattened shape are usually curved. NO diaphyses, or epiphyses - they are a sandwich of cancellous bone between compact bone Ex - ribs - breastbone & shoulder blades
irregular bones Not elongated & NO dipahyses - some have small epiphyses - some have air-filled spaces called sinuses, lined by mucous membranes - Vertebrae & facial bones
skeletal system - four components bones, cartilage, tendons, ligaments
bone a hard connective tissue consisting of cells embedded in a matrix of mineralized ground substance and collagen fibers
cartilage a connective tissue characterized by NONVASCULARITY - an firm consistency; consists of cells (chondrocytes), ground substance (proteoblycans) found in joints, etc.
hyaline cartilage most intimately connected with bone
long bone structure (3 components) diaphysis, epiphysis - epiphyseal plate
diaphysis Shaft - Gr. "a growing between"
epiphyseal plate Long bone-growth plate-hyaline cartilage is located between the epiphysis & the diaphysis - bone grows along this line, become hardened
epiphyseal line when bone stops growing in length, the epiphyseal plate becomes ossified and is called the epiphyseal line
medullary cavity large internal space within diaphysis of long bone - filled with marrow (both red & yellow)
Red marrow site of blood cell formation
yellow marrow is mostly adipose tissue
in children, spaces within bones are filled with red marrow
In adults, the ones of the skull & limbs (except for the proximal epiphyses) have ______ marrow yellow marrow
bone marrow in adults red marrow - in pelvic girdle - ribs & & shoulders???
Bone matrix mature bone matrix is aboutr 35% organic and 65% inorganic material
Organix material of mature bone (35%) primarily consists of collagen and proteoglycans
inorganix material of mature bone (65%) Consists of calcium phosphate crystal called hydroxyapatite
What is hydroxyapatite? "apatite" is a class of naturally occuring crystalline minerals containing calcium & phosphorus; a component of bones & teeth
hydroxy- prefix indicating addition or substitution of the -OH group to or in the compound named after it
What is the formula for hydroxyapatite? Ca10(PO4)(OH)2
what does bone matrix resemble? reinforced concrete
Osteoblasts have an extensive ____________ and numerous ____________?? Osteoblasts have an extensive endoplasmic reticulum & numerous ribosomes
Osteoblasts produce (2) and release them from the cell by ____________ Osteoblasts produce collagen and proteoglycans, which are packaged into vesicles by the Golgi apparatus and release from the cell by exocytosis
Osteoblasts also form vesicles that accumulate ____________ and ____________ Osteoblasts also form vesicles that accumulate calcium ions (Ca+) and Phosphate ions (PO4 2-)
Ossification the formation of bone by osteoblasts
ossification is also called osteogenesis
ossification occurs by ____________ growth on the surgace of previously existing bone or cartilage Ossification occurs by APPOSITIONAL growth
ossification occurs when osteoblasts connect to other cells; bone matrix secreted from the osteoblasts covers the older bone surface and surrounds the osteoblast cell bodies and processes; resulting in a new layer of bone
osteocytes mature bone cell
circumferential lamellae thin plates of bone that extend around the periphery
periosteum connective tissue membrane which covers the outer surface of the bone
canaliculi spaces occupied by the osteocyte cell processes
osteon consists of a single central canal, its contents, and associate concentric lamellae and osteocytes
interstitial lamellae remnants of concentric or circumferential lamellae that were partially removed during bone remodeling
Haversian/central canal vesseles that run parallel to the long axis of the bone
perforating/vokmann's canals blood vessels that run perpendicular to the long axis of the bone
lamellae thin sheet or layer; such as bone
mandibular fossa depression - mandibular condyle fits in here - this is the articulation point between the mandible and skull
olfactory foramina one of the openings on the cribiform plate in the ethmoid bone
palatine bone forms part of the hard palate & a small part of the orbit of the eye
ramus of mandible a part of a bone that forms an angle with the main body - LESS SLENDER than a "Process" - it's the bump in the middle of the posterior middle section of the mandible
nasal bone forms bridge of nose
maxillary sinus CAVITY in the bone-helps lighten the skull
atlas 1st cervical vertebrae - flat - no "spine" process
axis 2nd cervical vertebrae - DENS-"tooth" projecting from it
number of vertebrae in adult 26 - cervical -7; thoracic - 12; lumbar-5; sacral-1 plus coccygeal - 1
developing emryoe has how many bones? 33-34 - because sacral vertebrae - 5 (become one) and coccygeal (4 or 5) become one
what do cervical vertabrae have that the other vertabrae do NOT have? A TRANSVERSE FORAMEN - vertebral arteries extend toward head
sacral promontory Superior point of sacrum where it articulates with lumbar vertebrae; a "promontory" is the top of a hill - has a slight ridge
acro combining form meaning "top" "peak" "extremity" - Akron is the PEAK of civilization in OHIO
cora coid cora "crow's beak" oid "like" - shaped like a crow's beak
main bones of the arm humerus, ulna, radius
how many bones of the carpal??? 8
bones of the leg femur, tibia, fibula
what bone articulates with the femur tibia
what is the surgical neck of the humerus? a place where the bone breaks, below the anatomical neck
deltoid tuberosity Middle of the humerus
capitulum - on the humerus - articulates with elbow looks like a head - is on lateral side
what is the elbow? olecranon process on the ulna
trochlea "spool" on posterior of ulna
medial malleolus is on what side of the leg? what is it part of? the "inside" of the leg-on the tibia
woven bone collagen fibers are randomly oriented in many directions - this is fetal bone - which is later replaced by mature bone (lamellar)
lamellar bone - mature bone organized into thin sheets -
trabeculi spaces in bone filled with blood or cartilage
intromembranous ossification skull bones, mandible, etc. develop in fetus the mesenchyme
centers of ossification part of membrane where ossification begin
endochondral ossification cartilage forms most of skeleton (other than skull) - produce a hyaline "cartilage model"
endochondral ossification 1. cartilage matrix calcifies 2. osteoblasts form cancellous bone from cartilage & outer surface of compact bone 3. primary "ossificaiton centers" form diaphyses 4. secondary ossification centers form the epiphyses
what does NOT ossify articular cartilage & epiphyseal plate
