bone and tissue trit

QuestionAnswer
describe three macroscopic functions of skeletal system support, protection, movement
describe three microscopic functions of skeletal system blood formation, mineral reservoir, storage of fat
explain function of blood formation red blood marrow that is a connective tissue produces RBC, WBC and platelets process called hematopoieses
explain function of mineral reservoir bone tissue stores many minerals especially calcium which helps with bone strength
explain function of storage of fat yellow bone marrow consist of adipose tissue
what are the two major division structures Axial and Appendicular
what is the location of the axial bones that lie around the longitudinal axis of the body imaginary vertical line runs through middle
what is the location of the appendicular upper and lower limbs
how many bones are in the axial 80
how many bones are in the appendicular 126
total number of bones 206
what are the five types of bones based on shape long, short, flat, irregular shape, sesamoid
what does calcium do for a mineral reservoir helps strength in bones and needed for contraction of muscles can affect heart beat
axial includes what and number skull 29, vertebrae 26, sternum 1, ribs 24
appendicular includes what and number pectoral girdle which is clavicle 2, scapula 2, upper limb 60, lower limb 60, pelvic girdle 2
describe long bones give examples longer than wide. humerus, femur, radius, ulna, phalanges, tibia, fibia
describe short bones give examples cube shape dont have long axis. carpals, tarsals
describe flat bones give examples sternum, ribs roofing bones of skull and scapula
describe irregular bones give examples no axis. vertebrae, pectoral girdle, pelvic girdle, calcaneus
describe sesamoid bones give examples not attached embedded in joint capsule and develop in certain tendons where friction. patella
major characteristics of skeletal system endoskeleton capable of growth, adaptation in normal growth and remodeling, repair fixing
word root for bone osseous
how is support a function framework of muscle attachment to tendon
tendon attaches muscle to bone
ligament attaches bone to bone
how is protection a function skull for brain, rib cage for heart and vertebrae for spinal cord
how is movement a function muscle attachment at joints. muscles move joints because of attachment to bone
depressions/openings dip or indentation "hole" in the bone most start with "f"
name and describe the depressions Fossa- shallow depression Fovea- small pit in bone Sulcus- depression between parts
name and describe the openings Foramen- round oval opening through bone Fissure- narrow crack in bone Meatus- canal passage way
projections (processes) of bones site of muscle and ligament attachments help to form joints most start with "t"
projections articular surfaces (form joints) Head- bony expansion carried on a narrow neck Condyle- looks like a knuckle rounded Facet-smooth flat surface (vertebra)
projections site of attachment of connective tissure (muscle and ligaments) Trochanter- large irregular surface (femur) Tuberosity- large elevated and rounded bumpy surface Tubercle- small rounded Protuberance- small protrudes Tubercle
diaphysis of long bone main tubular shaft of bone with ends
epiphysis of long bone epi=top ends of long bone. epipheseal line seperates epiphysis and diaphysis. inside is spongy outside is compact.surface covered with articular (hyaline) cartilage
metaphysis of long bone between diaphysis and epipysis in each growing bone it contains epiphyseal plate by 18-21 cartilage is replaced with bone resulting in epiphyseal line where bone growth stops
periosteum of long bone tough connective tissue around bone
endosteum of long bone thin lining of connective tissue inside lining of meduallary cavity contains bone forming cells
articular cartilage of long bone hyaline cartilage smooth surface articulates with other bones lacks perichondrium and blood vessels so repair of damage is limited
compact bone of long bone strong dense tissue filled with minerals as calcium and phospherous
spongy bone of long bone located at epiphysis very porous filled with red marrow site of blood cell production bone is not very strong does not have osteons some have red others yellow bone marrow
medullary cavity of long bone cavity inside bone in center of diaphysis has yellow marrow and blood vessels
red marrow of long bone produces rbc, wbc and platlets
yellow marrow of long bone consist of adipose cells which stores triglycerides fat for energy also stores nutrients and minerals
nutrient foramen of long bone near center of diaphysis large nutrient artery enters compact bone through this hole
compact bone structures osteon, central canal, lamella, lacuna, canaliculi
osteons structural units of compact bone look like a tree trunk made of central canal
central canal runs longitude (up and down) through the bone includes blood vessels
lamellae layers growth ring mineralized and hard extracellular matrix increases diameter is secreted by osteblasts
lacunae space surrounding osteocytes locks cells in place housing. osteoblasts are now mature and called osteocytes
canaliculi canals which communication between cells take place

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
