Cricks Bone Formation Flash Cards
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the first cell type to form the new bone | mesenchymal cell |
| Once the mesenchymal cells form the shape of the new bone, what do they turn into? | chondroblasts |
| What do chondroblasts make | cartilage |
| When the chondroblasts secrete cartilage and form the shape of the bone, what is it called? | cartilage model |
| What then happens to the cartilage model? | perichondrium forms around it |
| As chondroblasts secrete cartilage, they develop into what cell? | chondrocyte (cartilage cells) |
| As chondrocytes age, some will burst, changing the pH of the area, triggering what? | calcification |
| Some chondrocytes in the bone will die due to lack of nutrients, leaving what behind? | gaps or cavities |
| What will the gaps form? | lacunae- which will be the gaps that blood supply, nerve endings and other stuff will use to permeate the bone |
| At this point, a nutrient artery will form, causing the perichondrium to convert to what? | bone forming osteoblasts |
| Once the osteoblasts begin forming true bone cells, the perichondrium will be called what?q | the periosteum |
| What direction will the bone formation take place? | from the outside- in (the periosteum is wrapped around the outside of the bone) |
| Capillaries develop in the middle of the bone, causing the formation of what? | spongy bone |
| Some of the spongy bone near the end of the bone will be destroyed (in the shaft of the bone) and ___ will form there | red bone marrow |
| The epiphyseal plate will continue to generate new cells until ___ | 18-25 years of age |
