Question
Answer
Long bones   Longer than wide, femur, humerus, fibula, tibia, radius, ulna ( arms and legs)  
🗑
Short bones   cube shaped (wrist/ankle)(carpal/tarsal)  
🗑
Flat bones   thin surface for muscle attatchment, cranial bones,sternum, ribs  
🗑
Irregular bones   complex shapes, facial bones, vertebrae  
🗑
Diaphysis   shaft  
🗑
Epiphysis   ends  
🗑
Metaphysis   where ends join shaft  
🗑
Articular cartilage   hyaline cartilage  
🗑
Periosteum   outer cover around bone  
🗑
Endosteum   lines inside of cavity  
🗑
Medullary cavity   cavity inside with yellow marrow  
🗑
Osseous tissue   matrix is 25% collagen, 50% mineral salts  
🗑
Osteoblasts   bone building cells, become osteocytes as build matrix around themselves  
🗑
Osteocytes   mature bone cell, no cell division, maintain bone  
🗑
Osteoclasts   cells to reabsorb bone, in the endosteum lysosomal enzyme  
🗑
Haversian system   Osteon, units of bone tissue, has Haversian (central) canal that runs longitudinally down center  
🗑
Volkmann"s canals   transverse canals, has artery vein, nerve and lymph connect to meduallry cavity, periosteum at Haversian canals  
🗑
Concentric lamellae   hard rings of calcified bone around c anal  
🗑
Lacunae   space between lamellae, contain osteocytes  
🗑
Canaliculi   channels raidiating out from lacunae, have extra celluar fluid and connect with each other, contain process of osteocytes  
🗑
Trabeculae   lattice of thin column of bone, red marrow in spaces and osteocytes  
🗑
PTH   parathyroid hormone, negative feedback loop, stimulates osteroclasts for bone reabsorption to release Ca++ inton blood, promotes absorption of Ca++ in gut and decreased loss from kidneys  
🗑
Calcitonin   made by thyroid, keeps Ca++ in bone, inhibits osteoclasts  
🗑
Thyroid hormones   promote normal bone growth  
🗑
Insulin   secreted by pancreas, promote normal bone growth  
🗑
HGH   from pituitary, promote growth of all tissues, including bone (human growth hormone)  
🗑
IGFs   from liver, stimulated by HGH, promote tissue repair and bone growth (insulin-like growth factors)  
🗑
Minerals   Ca & P to calcify matrix, Ma - support of osteocytes  
🗑
Vitamins   V + A osteoblasts too much slows growth repair, Vit. C & collagen, matrix Vit. D for Ca absorption. too much is bone loss  
🗑
Sutures   joints between skull  
🗑
Fontanelles   soft spots on infants head (anterior, posterior,2 sphenoid, 2 mastiod) 12-18 months  
🗑
Kyphosis   anterior concave, posterior convex, normal in thoraic spine  
🗑
Lordosis   anterior convex, posterior concave, normal in cervical and lumbar spine  
🗑
Synarthrosis   immovable  
🗑

🗑
Syndesmosis   tibial/fibular joint, amphiarthrosis  
🗑
Gomphosis   peg in socket, (tooth) immoveable  
🗑
Synchondrosis   epiphyseal plate, hyaline cartilage, immoveable

🗑
Dorsi/plantar flexion   at the ankle, point toes is plantar flex, pull toes towards head is dorsi flex  
🗑
Pronation/supination   at the arm, pronate is palm down, supinate is palm up
