ch. 6
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| which bone tissue is adapted to support weight and withstand tension stress | compact bone |
| yellow bone marrow contains a large percentage of what | fat |
| the cell responsible for secreting the matrix of bone is | osteoblast |
| what kind of tissue is the forerunner of long bones in the embryo | hylaine cartilage |
| what can a deficiency of growth hormone during bone formation cause | decreased proliferation of the epihyseal plate cartilage |
| a fracture in the shaft of the bone would be a break in the | diaphysis |
| the term diploe means | internal layers of spongy bone in flat bones |
| a bone marking name that indicates a projection that helps form joints | ramus |
| factors in preventing or delaying osteoporosis include | drinking fluoridated water |
| ossification of the ends of long bones | is produced by secondary ossification centers |
| the structure that allows the diaphysis to increase in length until early childhood as well as shaping the articular sufaces | epiphyseal plate |
| the most abundant skeletal cartilage is | hyaline |
| what is the structural unit of compact bone | the osteon |
| the bones are covered by a protective layer called | periosteum |
| the inner layer of the bone consists of | osteoblasts and osteoclasts |
| the periosteum is secured to the underlying bone by dense connective tissue called | perforating fibers (sharpys) |
| the canal that runs through the core of each osteon is the site of | blood vessels and nerve fibers |
| what are the small spaces in bone tissue that are holes in which osteocytes live called | lacunae |
| the process of bones increasing in width is known as | appositional growth |
| which cells accomplish the process of resorption | osteoclast |
| which hormone increases osteoclast activity to release more calcium ions into the bloodstream | parathyroid hormone |
| wolff's law is concerned with | the thickness and shape of a bone dependent on stresses placed upon it |
| Cranial bones develop | within fibrous membranes |
| what gland produces hormones that tend to decrease blood calcium levels | thyroid |
| osteomyelitis is | due to pus forming bacteria |
| What is appositional growth | the secretion of new matrix aganist the external face of existing cartilage |
| in the epiphyseal plate cartilage grows | by pushing the epiphysis away from the diaphysis |
| spongy bones are made up of a framework called | trabeculae |
| osteogenesis is the process of | bone formation |
| lengthwise long bone growth during infancy and youth is exclusivly through | interstitial growth of the epiphyseal plates |
| what hormone is important for bone growth during infancy and childhood | growth hormone |
| elevated levels of sex hormones cause | the epiphseal plate of the long bones of children to close to early |
| normal bone formation and growth are dependent on the adequate intake of | calcium, phosphate, and vitamin D |
| ostealgia is | pain in the bone |
