| What are the 2 types of bone? | Cancellous (spongy) & Compact |
| What is cancellous bone composed of? | Tiny spicules of bone that appear randomly arranged. What occupies the space between the spicules? BONE MARROW |
| Compact bone is made up of what? | Haversian systems that run lengthwise with the bone |
| What do Haversian systems consist of?? | concentric layers of ossified bone matrix arranged around a central canal which allows blood and lymph vessels & nerves to run lengthwise with the bone |
| What is the periosteum? | Thin fibrous skin like layer surrounding the long area of bones |
| What does the periosteum contain? | Osteoblasts |
| What are the Volkmanns Canals? | Tiny canals running through the bone matrix, connecting blood vessels from the periosteum to the Haversian canals |
| What are the Haversian canals? | The center canal that runs lengthwise in bones containing blood and lymph vessels and nerves that supply nutrients to the bone |
| What is the endosteum? | fibrous membrane that lines the hollow interiors of bones. |
| What does the endosteum contain? | Osteoblasts |
| What is the nutrient foramina? | Large channels in large bones which allow large blood vessels to pass carrying blood to and from the blood marrow |
| What is the lacunae | Small crevices that form the matrix |
| What is contained in the lacunae?? | Osteocytes and chondrocytes |
| What are the canaliculi? | The connection points between developing bone cells |
| Define Osteoblast | cells that create new bone |
| Define Osteocytes | Mature bone cells found in the lacunae (spaces) of ossified bone matrix |
| Define Osteoclast | Large multi nucleated cells of bone, they break down and smooth out bone. They are the macrophages of the bone, they "eat" remove/remodel the bone |
| How does a bone cell function? | Osteoblast secretes a soft matrix of soft protein and carbs which hardens due to infiltration of Ca&Phosphates? Osteoblasts are trapped in the hardened matrix (canalculi) and now serves as an osteocyte, the new function is blood production. |
| The contents of the bone include what 3 things? | medullary cavity, red bone marrow, yellow bone marrow |
| What is the medullary cavity? | The center of long bones with storage space |
| What is the function of red bone marrow? | it is a hematopoietic tissue which function to produce red blood cells |
| What is the function of yellow bone marrow? | it is an adipose connective tissue which functions to form fat tissue. it does NOT produce blood cells but can revert back to red bone marrow if needed |
| What are the 2 types of bone formation? | endochondral & intramembranous |
| Endochondral bone formation begins with what? | a cartilage template that develops within the embryo, this cartilage is replaced by what? Osteoblasts |
| After osteoblasts replace the embryonic cartilage, how is the marrow cavity formed? | Osteoclasts remove bone from the diaphysis to form the bone medullary cavity |
| The narrow band of cartilage that remains after the bone has formed is called what? | growth plate |
| What is the function of the growth plate? | to allow the bone to grow and lengthen |
| What is the primary growth center of endochondral bone formation? | Bone develops at the diaphysis as embryonic cartilage rods are gradually removed and bone is created |
| What is the secondary growth center of endochondral bone formation? | bone develops in the epiphysis of the bone |
| Where are the epiphyseal plates located? | between the diaphysis and epiphysis of long bones This is also known as the growth plate |
| What is the "head" of bones? | A somewhat spherical articular surface on the proximal end of a long bone. |
