Gross Anatomy

Basic Osteology & Thoracic Limb Bones of Carnivores

ConceptExplanation
Fxns of Skeleton Support, Movement, Protection, Source of minerals, Source of stem cells
Minerals supplied by skeleton calcium & phosphorus
Types of stem cells supplied by skeleton RBC & WBC
Axial Skeleton Bones of skull, ribs, vertebrae, & sacrum
Appendicular Skeleton components Limb bones
Heterotopic Skeleton components Os cordis, os penis, os rostrale
Bone Form of connective tissue composed of cells, & extracellular matrix
Osteocytes Mature bone cells that make up the vast majority (90% to 95%) of all cells in adult bone tissue
Osteoblasts Specialized cells responsible for the formation & mineralization of new bone tissue
Osteoclasts A specialized, multicellular cell responsible for dissolving & breaking down or damaged bone tissue
Extracellular matrix Minerals (hydroxyapatite), collagen (type I), proteins, & water
Periosteum Outer covering of bone
Endosteum Inner covering of bone
(T/F) The endosteum only has the 1 inner cell layer while the periosteum consists of a 2 layers: outer fibrous/loose connective tissue layer and inner cell layer True
Heterotopic something occurring in an abnormal place or position
Woven (bone tissue type) Immature form of bone which is randomly arranged; found in developing bones and areas of fracture repair
Lamellar mature form of bone; arranged in highly ordered layers
Cortical or Compact dense bone arranged in highly organized layers of lamellar bone
Cancellous or Trabecular less dense form of bone arranged into a lattice consisting of spicules interspersed with spaces
Bone type that accounts for approximately 80% of skeleton Cortical or Compact
Bone type that accounts for approximately 20% of skeleton Cancellous or Trabecular
Type of bone where majority remodeling occurs Cancellous or Trabecular
(T/F) Orthopaedic screws and pins are designed to be used with specific types of bone tissue True
Epiphyseal line ossified remnant of growth plate found in adult long bones
(T/F) The periosteum Consists of 2 layers – outer fibrous/loose connective tissue layer & inner cell layer while the endosteum only consists of the inner cell layer True
(T/F) Mineral salts do not cause bone to be highly resistant to compression False
Tensile Pulling force that stretches or elongates
Collagen does not cause the bone to be resistant to tensile force False
(T/F) the femur, humerus, and radius are long bones True
(T/F) The carpal bones and tarsal bones are not short bones False
(T/F) The scapula, ribs, and bones of skull are not flat bones False
(T/F) The irregular bones are the vertebrae and pelvis True
The sesamoid bones dorsal sesamoid bones, palmar sesamoid bones, patella, fabellae
Pneumatic Bones bones of birds & bones of the mammalian skull containing paranasal sinuses
Paranasal sinuses air-filled cavities in the skull surrounding the nasal cavity
Epiphysis enlarged proximal & distal ends
Diaphysis elongated central portion
Physis growth plate
Metaphysis funnel-shaped portion connecting the epiphysis & diaphysis
Medullary cavity a central space located within bones
The medullary cavity consists of two forms of bone marrow called “red” and “yellow"
(T/F) Both forms of bone marrow do not consist of all of the following; arteries, veins, sinuses, and hematopoietic tissue (red & white blood cell precursors) False
(T/F) Red marrow is found throughout immature bones True
(T/F) Yellow marrow is not the main type of marrow found in adult bones False
Hematopoietic tissue specialized connective tissue responsible for the production of all blood cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets
(T/F) Arteries typically bring oxygenated blood to the body True
(T/F) Veins typically do not bring deoxygenated blood to the heart False
(T/F) Most of the blood cell precursors of yellow marrow are replaced by adipose tissue True
(T/F) Adipose tissue cannot convert to active hematopoietic tissue during times of stress False
(T/F) The greater tubercle of the humerus, iliac crest, sternebrae, vertebrae, & ribs are sites where red bone marrow can be obtained for use in bone grafting True
Endochondral ossification formation of bone from a pre-existing cartilage model (long bones, short bones, irregular bones)
Intramembranous ossification formation of bone from fibrous connective tissue (bones of the skull)
Remodeling Coordinated action of osteoclasts & osteoblasts to reform existing bone
(T/F) biomechanical forces do not cause remodeling to occur False
(T/F) Remodeling is a dynamic, on-going process which results in a net loss of bone with advancing age True
Bone type that the majority of remodeling occurs with Trabecular bone
Bone(s) of Thoracic Girdle scapula & clavicle
Bone(s) of Brachium humerus
Bone(s) of Antebrachium radius & ulna
Bone(s) of Manus carpus, metacarpus, & digits
Fovea a small pit or depression
Fossa a hollow or depressed area
Foramen an opening or passage
Crest a ridge
Tubercle a small rounded projection
Tuberosity an elevation or protuberance (larger than a tubercle)
Tuber a swelling or protuberance
Meatus an opening or passage
Process a prominence or projection
Osteochondritis Dessicans (OCD) of the Shoulder a disease of medium to large breed, and rapidly growing dogs in which subchondral bone fails to form beneath the overlying articular cartilage
Result of OCD (Osteochondritis Dessicans) extra stress on the articular cartilage above the defect, resulting in tearing of the cartilage
(T/F) The torn cartilage resulting from OCD may remain attached as a flap, or break free and move around within the scapulohumeral joint True
(T/F) OCD does not usually cause inflammation of the synovial membrane (synovitis) False
(T/F) OCD lesions do not commonly develop on the caudal portion of the humeral head False
Fragmented Medial Coronoid Process uneven growth of the radius and ulna results in excessive loading of the medial coronoid process of the ulna during normal weight-bearing
(T/F) Under normal conditions, the radius is the primary weight-bearing bone of the antebrachium True
Result of Fragmented Medial Coronoid Process fracture at coronoid process
Un-United Anconeal Process A separate ossification center associated with the anconeal process of the ulna fails to close; cartilage of the ossification site fails to become ossified making it less biomechanically resistant to normal loading forces
(T/F) Un-united anconeal process is another condition which large breed dogs are not prone to False
(T/F) An Un-United Anconeal Process results in tearing of the anconeal process at the ossification center True
Primary location of carpal & digital extensor muscles Craniolateral compartment
Primary location of carpal & digital flexor muscles Caudomedial compartment

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.
