Anatomy
Bones
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Process | general term for a projection from the surface of the bone |
| tubercle | relatively small bump on bone |
| tuberocity | relatively large, rough area on bone |
| spine | short, sharp projection |
| condyle | irregular, smooth surface that articulates with another bone |
| epicondyle | bump on condyle |
| head | hemispheric projection that articulates with another bone |
| facet | smooth, flat face |
| trochanter | a large bumb |
| Ramus | branch |
| foramen | shallow hole |
| sinus | cavity |
| meatus/canal | deep hole |
| fossa | shallow depression in a bone |
| notch | deep cut-out |
| groove/sulcus | elongated dpression |
| fissure | long, deep cleft |
| epiphysis | proximal and distal ends of the bone |
| diaphysis | shaft of the bone |
| articular cartilage | on the ends of bones on the epiphysis |
| epiphyseal plate | cartilage between the shaft and head (epiphysis and diaphysis) |
| epiphyseal line | when a person reaches maximal height, the plate turns into bone |
| trabeculae | what spongy bone is made of, thin rods or plates of bone that run in the same direction as the stress |
| Red marrow | hemopoietic (blood-forming) |
| yellow marrow | adipose contaning |
| Diploe | spongy bones in flat bones |
| nutrient foramina | small holes that allow for the passage of blood vessels in and out of the bone |
| perforating canals | pass through compact bone horizontaly |
| Periosteum | dense connective tissue covering the outside of the bone |
| endosteum | inner surface of long bones, near marrow cavity |
| osteons | modular units of bones, blood vessel center |
| central canal | hole in middle of osteon which holds blood vessels and nerves |
| lacunae | rings of dark spots around canal, spaces that the bone cell occupies living tissue |
| cancaliculi | thin tubes connecting the lacunae |
| lamellae | concentric rings between lacunae |
| osteoblasts | originate from osteogenic cells which occur in the periosteum, endosteum, and central canals of osteons |
| osteocytes | mature bones cells, respond to stresses placed on bone and remodel the bone in response to stresses |
| osteoclasts | cells that remove collagen by acid phosphate and minerals by HCl |
| epiphysis | proximal and distal ends of bone |
| diaphysis | shaft of the bone |
| articular cartilage | on the ends of the bone (epiphysis) |
| epiphyseal plates | cartilage between the epiphysis and the diaphysis |
| epiphyseal line | when the cartilage between epiphysis and diaphysis turns to bone in the end of growth phase |
| trabeculae | thin rods or plates of bone in the spongy bone, growing where stress occurs |
| diploe | spongy bone in flat bone |
| intramembranous ossification | formation of bone from pre-existing hyaline cartilage models |
| Endochondral ossification | formation of bone from connective tissue (messenchyme) |
| interstitial growth | increase in length |
| intramembranous ossification | formation of bone from pre-existing hyaline cartilage models |
| Endochondral ossification | formation of bone from connective tissue (messenchyme) |
| interstitial growth | increase in length |
| apppositional growth | increase in width |
| calcitonin secretion | too much Ca in blood, reduces osteoclast activity (Less bone resorption) increases osteoblast activity (increase bone deposition) |
| Calcitron | not enough Ca in blood, PTH secretion, increase osteoclasts, reduce osteoblasts |
| Autoimmune | immune system malfunctions, causes red blood cells, swelling and nowhere for the extra fluid to go |
| osteoarthritis | degenerative, worses over time, physical therapy for treatment, wearing away of the cartilage |
| Hip dislocation | 90% is backward direction, when a hip is replaces there is a cup inserted in the hip socket and the femoral head is replaced by metal ball and cap. the cup has tiny holes hoping the bone will regrow into it. |
| scoliosis | the brace that is worn results in remodeling of the bone (know and be able to describe roles of osteoblasts, clasts, and cytes) |
| Bony Joint/synostosis | occurs when two separate bones fuse to become one, immovable joints |
| fibrous joints | connect one bone to another with collagenous fibers |
| synostosis | fusion of two frontal bones into one bone |
| somphsis | teeth and mandible |
| syndesmosis | distal tibia and distal fibula |
| Cartilaginous Joints | joints held together by cartilage |
| synchondrosis | epiphyseal plate, humeral head and shaft; costal cartilages, first rib and sternum |
| symohysis | joint between two vertebral bodies |
| synovial joints | joints enclosed by synovial capsule |
| plane | between carpal bones |
| hinge | humerous and ulna |
| pivot | atlas and axis |
| condyloid | radius and scaphoid |
| saddle | trapezium and first metacarpal |
| ball and socket | acetabulum and femus |
