Question
Answer
Osteprogenitor cells   undifferentiated cells becomes osteoblasts only mitotic cells of bone found in periosteum and endosteum  
🗑
Osteoblast cells   form true bone cells  
🗑
osteocytes   true bone cells  
🗑
osteoclast cells   tear down bone (destroy) secrete acid that leaches out of the minerals from bone (osteolysis)  
🗑
Metaphysis   between epiphysis and diaphysis  
🗑
Diaphysis   shaft of the bone  
🗑
epiphysis   ends of the bone  
🗑
outer periosteum   protection, repair, growth, nutrition, place for attachment fibrous CT, nerves, BVs, lymphnodes  
🗑
inner periosteum   bone building layer elastic fibers, BVs, osteoblasts and osteoclasts  
🗑
endosteum   CT, primary osteoclasts some blasts  
🗑
Compact bone   concentric circle formation thicker in diaphysis, dense, few spaces, overlays spongey, protection, support, resistant to stress  
🗑
spongey bone   "cancellous bone"  
🗑
ossification   making of osseous tissue (spongey and compact) intramembranous= fibrous tissue becomes bone endochondrial ossification=cartilage model overtime cells replaced by bone  
🗑
trabecula   bony strusts  
🗑
epiphyseal plate   found in metaphysis area region where bone increase in length  
🗑
Zone of proriferating cartilage   cells increase in # and stack on eachother  
🗑
Zone of reserve cartilage   chondrocytes are small, hooks epi plate to epiphysis  
🗑
zone of hypertrophic cartilage   chondrocytes mature; large cells; matrix starts to calcify; these cells will die  
🗑
zone of calcified matrix   dead cells; osteoblasts and capillaries from diaphysis invade the layer and bone formed here  
🗑
long bone   greater length than width, marrow cavity present i.e. femur, phalanges, humerus  
🗑
short bone   cube shaped, length=width i.e. carpals, tarsals  
🗑
flat bone   parallel layers of compact bone with spongey i.e. cranial bones, sternum, ribs, scapula  
🗑
irregular bone   varied amounts of both spongey and compact bone, irregular shape i.e. facial bones, vertebrae  
🗑
Wormian Bone   sutural bones of cranium; small clusters of bones in cranial suture  
🗑
sesamoid bones   small bones form in tendons where pressure is great i.e. wrist # varies person to person, patella same for all  
🗑
axial skeleton   80 bones found in body's midline i.e. ribs, sternum, cranium/skull, vert. column  
🗑
appendicular skeleton   126 bones including appendages and girdles  
🗑
coronal suture   frontal and parietal  
🗑
sagittal suture   parietal bones (2)  
🗑
Lambdoidal suture   occipital and parietal  
🗑
squamosal suture   parietal and temporal  
🗑
fontanels   little fountains soft spots in baby's skull hasn't yet turned to bone at birth  
🗑
antifontanel   diamond shaped, closes 18-24 mos.  
🗑
posterior fontanel   diamond shaped b/w parietal and occipital bones smaller, fuses earlier by 2 mos.  
🗑
frontal bones   forehead, anterior cranium, parts of orbits, ant. cranial floor,  
🗑
superciliary arches   swelling that form deep to eyebrows "brow ridges"  
🗑
supraorbital ridge   most sup. border of orbit  
🗑
frontal sinuses   deep to superciliary arches  
🗑
supraorbital foramen   in or immed. sup. to the supraorbital margins  
🗑
Parietal Bone   sides and sup. part of cranium houses BVs and nerves  
🗑
Temporal Bone   inferior, lateral of cranium  
🗑
temporal squama   superior border of temporal bone thin, flattened rim  
🗑
zygomatic process (of temp. bone)   articulates with the temporal process of the zygo. bone to form zygo. arch  
🗑
Petrus portion   inferior part of temporal bone includes inner ear, middle ear, carotid foramen, and jugular foramen  
🗑
mandibular fossa   depression close to zygo process receives condylar process of mandible TM joint  
🗑
styloid process   projects interioraly (temporal bone) muscle & ligament attachment reponsible for tongue and neck movement  
🗑
mastiod process   process located in mastoid portion  
🗑
sphenoid bone   "batwing bone" articulates with all other cranila bones, base of middle part of skull  
🗑
