Question
Answer
4 cells types found in bone   Ostoecytes, Osteoblast, osteoclast, osteoprogenerators  
🗑
What is primary bone   immature bone. Collagen runs in random directions, low mineral count, and uneven stain  
🗑
What is Secondary bone   mature bone. Deeply acidiphilic, organized, and resembles a "bulls-eye"  
🗑
2 types of secondary bone   Compact and spongy  
🗑
Describe the composition of spongy bone   made up of spicles and traneculae.  
🗑
What ability does spongy bone have and what gives it this ability   Ability to handle change and/or adjust to external stress. Trabeculae gives it this ability  
🗑
What is the periosteum   noncalcified covering of the outside of the bone  
🗑
What are Sharpeys fibers and where are they found   These hold the periosteum to the bone. Found in the periosteum  
🗑
Is the periosteum vascular   YES  
🗑
What are the two parts of the periosteum   OUter fibrous layer and inner osteogenic layer  
🗑
What is the endosteum   bone's cell lining that covers all of the interior surfaces of the bone  
🗑
What does the endosteum NOT include   osteocytes  
🗑
Describe the structure of an osteon   Haversian system surrounded by matirx in a circumfrential pattern.  
🗑
What interconnects the various osteons in bone   Volkmans canal  
🗑

🗑
Where does bone remodeling take place   at the BMU's (Bone remodeling units)  
🗑
How does bone remodeling work   Osteoblast recieve a signal and then signal to the osteoclast to start working  
🗑
What function does bone remodeling serve   retains shape, size, architecture and repairs minor stress fractures  
🗑
What is osteomalacia   a calcium or vitamin D deficency in adults. Characterized by decalcification of bones  
🗑
What is osteoporosis   decrease in bone mass and quantity associated with a normal ratio of mineral to matirx. Caused by decreased formation and increase reabsorbtion.  
🗑
What can cause osteoporosis   lack of physycial stress, less GH, in women less estrogen  
🗑
Osteochondrodysplasia   extreme bending of long bones  
🗑
