Anatomy Bone Quiz

A review of all the notes we have taken on the Bone unit

QuestionAnswer
List and briefly discuss the functions of bone Support- Skeleton makes up for the frame of the body. Muscles attach to bones, fat attaches to muscle, and skin attaches to fat Movement- Muscles move bone, bones move the body Protection- ALL vital organs are located in cavities protected by the bone
What does bone protect? Brain (skull), heart, lungs, liver, pancreas, reproductive system (pubic bones), salt storage, calcium storage and regulation.
What is long bones? Bones of the appendages (arms, fingers, legs, toes).
What is flat bones? Thin width with varying shapes (skull and ribs). The most flexible bones, and can absorb / distribute impact.
What is irregular bones? Also known as short bones. More cuboidal in shape, these are the bones of wrist and upper foot. (Asymmetrical bones / vertebrae, pelvic).
What is the function of periosteum serous membrane? Protects organs and house serous fluid.
What is the function of serous fluid? Brings nutrients to the organ and brings white blood cells to fight infection.
What is articular cartilage? Forms joints between bones. Prevents bones from touching.
What is medullary cavity? Hollowed out center of bone, its home to bone marrow, site of blood cell production, and proteins and other nutrients.
What are spongy bones? Developing bone found at the epiphyses. Site of bone growth, serves to absorb impact when moving.
What is compact bone? Calcified (mineralized) bone, and it's more solid.
Explain Microscopic anatomy of bone. Within bone there are series of canals. Osteoblasts are carried by blood vessels and will develop into bone as they are released from blood vessels.
What is Haversian System Series of canals within bone.
What is Endochondral Ossification in bone development? The formation of bone within cartilage. In the beginning a cartilage "skeleton" forms as a body frame. Blood vessels begin to infiltrate the cartilage model by depositing osteoblasts. The osteoblasts will mature into osteoclasts.
Define Osteoclasts. Breaking down the cartilage model from the inside.
Define Osteocytes. Will take the place of the cartilage.
Explain Intramembranous Ossification. It begins with mesenchyme cells forming a membrane outline. Blood vessels and nerves will infiltrate the membrane outline. Mesenchyme cells mature into Osteocytes and the cells move within the membrane to form bone.
Define Intramembranous Ossification. Intramembranous means within the membrane, Ossification means bone formation.
Explain bone fractures. Blood fills the damaged area surrounded by a new membrane of mesenchyme - also known as a hematoma. Scar tissue will fill the area along with new Osteocytes from the membrane (Intramembranous Ossification).
What are the different types of incomplete broken bones? Greenstick Fracture, and Stress Fracture.
Define a greenstick Fracture. Almost a complete break with fragments still together.
Define a stress fracture. Crack in bone with no visible separation.
What are the different types of complete broken bones? comminuted fracture, oblique fracture, transverse fracture, and spiral fracture.
Define comminuted fracture. Bones are crushed into many pieces
Define oblique fracture. bone breaks at an angle
define transverse fracture. bone breaks in a longitudinal line (across). Heals the fastest.
define a spiral fracture bones are twisted apart
Explain bone growth in childhood. Bones growth at the ends via Endochondral ossification, from birth to approx age 10, growth is constant. From approx 10 to termination, growth occurs in spurts.
Where does cartilage grow in childhood? At the ends of bone
Define Lepiphysel plate. Gap between new bone and new cartilage
Define epiphyseal line. Line of new bone on an x-ray
Explain bone remodeling in adulthood Constant addition and removal of minerals as needed by other parts of the body. Bone density changes constantly.
What are the 2 main minerals in bone that are added and removed in adulthood? Calcium and Phosphorus
What controls the addition and removal of calcium & phosphrus Hormones. Hormones that sense the need for specific nutrients dictate bone remodeling.
What are the two types of hormones that dictate bone remodeling? Calcitonin and Parathyroid hormone.
Briefly define Calcitonin and Parathyroid hormone. Calcitonin: puts calcium into bone Parathyroid: takes calcium out of muscle

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.
