QuestionAnswer
a unit of bone osteon
-opening in the center of an osteon -carries blood vessels and nerves central (haversian) canal
-canal perpendicular to the central canal -carries blood vessels and nerves perforating (volkman's) canal
two types of bone tissue compact and spongy
two types of skeletal classifications and their respective number of bones axial skeleton 80 appendicular skeleton 126
"little beams" of bones trebeculae
trebeculae are filled with red or yellow bone marrow
shaft of a long bone diapysis
ends of long bones epiphysis
-covers external surface of epiphysis -made of hylaline cartelage -decrease friction at joint surfaces articular cartilage
-provides anchoring point for tendons and ligaments -double layered protective membrane -inner osteogenic layer is composed of osetoblasts and osteclasts periostium
delicate CT membrane covering internal surfaces of bone -covers trabeculae of spongy bone -lines canals in compact bone -also contains both osteoblasts and osteclasts Endosteum
-outside covering of diaphysis -fibrous connective tissue membrane perosteum
secure periosteum to underlying bone sharpey's fibers
supply bones cells with nutrients arteries
-cavity of the shaft -contains yellow marrow (adults) -contains red marrow (infants) medullary cavity
column-like matrix tubes composed of collagen and crystals of bone salts lamellae
canal containing blood vessels and nerves central canal (haversian canal)
-cavities containing bone cells (osteocytes) -arranged in concentric rings lacunae
-rings around the central canal -sties of lacunae lamellae
-tiny canals -radiate fromt he central canal to lacunae -form a transport system canaliculi
compact bone- composed of osteons also known as haversian system
three types of bones cells (baby cells) osteoblasts osetocytes osteoclasts
make more bone ells, not found in lacunae, not surrounded by an extracellular matrix osteoblasts
are in lacunae, surrounded by extracellular matrix, connect to each other osteocytes
break down bone, not found in lacunae, not surrounded by extracellular matrix very large, mutinucleated cells osteoclasts
location of cartilage (3) -don't overthink it bridge of nose parts of ribs joings
allows for growth of long bone during childhood epiphyseal plates
4 steps of bone growth -new cartilage is continuously formed -older cartilage becomes ossified -cartilage is broken down -bone replaces cartilage
bone develops from a fibrous connective tissue membrane The flat bones of the skull, and clavicles are formed this way. stem cells differentiate to osteoblasts produces spongy bone, then compact bone intramembranous ossification
bone froms by replacing hyaline cartilage, uses hyaline cartilage "bone" as patterns endochondral ossification
PTH parathormone
retards bone development vitamin A deficiency
results in fragile bones vitamin C deficiency
rickets, osteomalacia vitamin D deficiency
insufficient growth hormone dwarfism
excessive growth hormone gigantism, acromegaly
insufficient thyroid hormone delays bone growth
promote bone formation, stimulate ossification of epipyseal plates sex hormone
stimulates bone growth physical stress
repair of a bone fracture hematoma, break is psinted by fibrocartilage to from a callus, fibrocartilage callus is replaced by bony callus, bony callus is remodeled to form a permanent patch
low bone mass, bone re-absorption outpaces bone deposition, occurs most often in women after menopause oseoporosis
occurs in adults, bones are not adequately mineralized osteomalacia
occurs in children, bones are not adequately mineralized, lack of vit D in the diet in areas receiving inadequate sunlight for vit D production is usally the cause, vitamin D is necessary for proper absorption of calcium Rickets
spongy aka cancellous
inorganic salt storage calcium phospohate magnesium sodium potassium
skull, spine, rib cage axial skeleton
upper limbs, lower limbs, shoulder girdle, pelvic girdle appendicular skeleton
rounded knob taht articulates with another bone condyle
smooth glat, slightly concave or convex surface facet
prominent expanded end of the bone, maybe rounded head
projection superior to a condyle epicondyle
slightly reaised, elongated ridge lines
bony prominence, (projection) process
bony outgrowth protuberance
sharp, slender, or narrow process (sharper and flatter) spine
two large processes associated with femur trochanter
small rounded process tubercle
rough elevated surface tuberosity
alveolus socket
fossa shallow, broad, or elongated basin
fovea small pit
sulcus groove from blood vessel, nerve or tendon
canal tunnel in a bone
foramen hole in a bone
fissure slit through a bone
meatus opening into a canal
sinus air filled space in a bone
how many bones does the skull have 22
cranial bones 1 frontal, 2 parietal, 2 occipital, 1 sphenoid, 1 ethmoid
facial bones 2 maxillae, 2 nasal, 2 palatine, 2 inf nasal conchae,2 zygomatic, 2 lacrimal, 1 vomer, 1 mandible
spaces between cranial bones in infancy and childhood fontanels
33 vertabrae are divided as 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacral, 4 coccygeal
core of gelatinous nucleaus pulposus surrounded by a fibrocartilage ring, anulus fibrosus intervertebral discs
abnormal spinal curvatures scolliosis, kyphosis, lordosis
how many ribs do we have 12 7 true, 5 false, (2 of which are floating)
shoulder girdle aka pectoral girdle
pectoral girdle includes clavicals and scapula
protein hormone produced in the thyroid gland produced in response to high blood calcium levels stimulates gone deposition by osteoblasts inhibits osteoclast activity far less important in homeostasis of blood calcium levels than parathyroid hormone calcitonin
primary regulator of calcium homeostasis stimulates osteoclasts to initiate breakdown of bone matrix and increase blood calcium levels increases renal absorption of calcium from urine stimulates vitamin D synthesis parathyroid hormone
four types of fractures open, closed, spiral, and greenstick
inflamation of bone and bone marrow caused by pus-forming bacteria that enter the body via a wound (eg compound fracture) or migrate from a nearby infection fatal before the advent of antibiotics osteomyelitis
"soft bones" osteomalacia
bowed legs, and deformaties of the pelvis, ribs and skull- childrens disease rickets
