Question
Answer
Disease of bone that leads to an increased risk of fracture. In osteoporosis the bone mineral density (BMD) is reduced, bone microarchitecture is disrupted, and the amount and variety of non-collagenous proteins in bone is altered.   osteoporosis  
🗑
What disease of the bones are most inclined in white women and Asian women?   osteoporosis  
🗑
• Adequate intake of calcium and phosphorus • Vitamins – Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Vitamin D   factors affecting growth and development  
🗑
collagen   vitamin c  
🗑
stimulates the activity of the osteoblasts   vitamin a  
🗑
important for absorption of calcium into the blood   vitamin d  
🗑
four zones of epiphyseal plate   Zone of Resting (Reserve) Cartilage, Zone of Proliferating Cartilage, Zone of Hypertrophy, Zone of Calcification, and Zone of Bone Deposition.  
🗑
which side of the epiphyseal plate is bone added   the diaphysis side  
🗑
chondrocyte cells hook the epiphysis to the epiphyseal plate (anchoring cells)   Zone of Resting (Reserve) Cartilage  
🗑
cells are actively dividing and “stack up”   Zone of Proliferating Cartilage  
🗑
cells become larger and burst. This changes the pH.   Zone of Hypertrophy  
🗑
following burst the cells die and leave a hollowed out channel (Haversian/Central canal) where cells were. Calcification begins.   Zone of Calcification  
🗑
Osteoblasts start to lay rings of bone matrix around canal – lamellae formation.   Zone of Bone Deposition  
🗑
Growth in the bone occurs in the ? (area between epiphysis and diaphysis)   epiphyseal plate  
🗑
the epiphyseal plate remains open until?   the bone is fully grown  
🗑
functions of our skeleton   • Support • Mineral Storage • Triglyceride/Fat Storage • Hemopoiesis – Blood Cell Production • Protection • Movement  
🗑
– Covers the bone (except the articulating surfaces)   Periosteum  
🗑
classification of bones   long bones, short bones, sesamoid bones, flat bones, irregular bones, and wormian/sutural bones  
🗑
Long and Skinny Bones – Most of the bones in arms and legs   long bones  
🗑
Cube Shaped Bones/ ex. tarsal   short bones  
🗑
Flat, Round Bone   sesamoid bone  
🗑
Flat Bones/Ex. frontal bone   Flat Bones  
🗑
Irregularly Shaped Bones/ex. vertebrae   irregular bones  
🗑
– These are Bone Stem Cells – ONLY Bone Cells that can divide; will form • Osteoblast • Osteoprogenitor   Osteoprogenitor (bone tissue cell types)  
🗑
bone tissue cell types   osteoblast, osteocyte, osteoclast, and osteoprogenitor  
🗑
Osteoblast cells lay down collagen fiber bundles   bone matrix  
🗑
Calcium phosphate salts CaPO4- adhere to collagen fibers – Salts are available in your diet – Calcium phosphate salts give bone its hardness   bone matrix  
🗑
Collagen fibers make bone slightly flexible   bone matrix  
🗑
types of bone tissue   spongy and compact bone  
🗑
is found as the outer layer of bone – deep to the periosteum   Compact Bone  
🗑
lies beneath the hard bone – within the spongy bone is where the red and yellow bone marrow is made.   Spongy Bone  
🗑
Made of units called OSTEONS   compact bone  
🗑
In the middle of each pillar is an opening called a Central or Haversian canal   compact bone  
🗑
Surrounding each canal are rings of bone tissue called lamellae   compact bone  
🗑
A major blood vessel, Volkmann’s canal extends horizontally across bone and up each central canal   compact bone  
🗑
Blood spills out and travels through canaliculi (canals) finding its way to the lacunae (little lakes) and to the osteocytes   compact bone  
🗑
Spicules form a lattice-like arrangement called trabeculae   spongy bone  
🗑
Less Dense – blood vessels flow through it   spongy bone  
🗑
Red and yellow bone marrow is produced within the?   spongy bone  
🗑
• Very Compact • Very, very Strong • Very Hard – Gives the bone its “hardness” • Found on the outside of the bone • Used to protect inner bone • If whole bone were hard, it would be too heavy • Made up of units called osteons   characteristics of compact bone  
🗑
• ActuallyHard–Looks like a sponge • Not as strong as Compact Bone • Give the bone its lightness • Found on the inside of the bone • Trabeculae   characteristics of spongy bone  
🗑
Bones form inside a membrane Bone formations are usually fully grown by the age of two years   Intramembraneous Ossification  
🗑
– MESODERM cells within a membrane differentiate into osteoprogenitor cells – Osteoprogenitor cells divide into osteoblast cells which lay down collagen fibers & matrix   Intramembraneous Ossification  
🗑
– Calcium salts adhere to the collagen fibers forming matrix (calcification) – Osteoblasts become stranded in hard matrix, mature into osteocytes   Intramembraneous Ossification  
🗑
– Osteocytes form hard bone (spongy bone inside) – Original membrane becomes periosteum   Intramembraneous Ossification  
🗑
Bones start as cartilage and turn into bones – Mesoderm cells crowd together in shape of bone (hyaline cartilage) – Membrane forms – perichondrium   Endochondral Ossification  
🗑
– Cartilage model grows as perichondrium produces chondrocytes • Cartilage model grows in length – interstitial growth • Cartilage model grows in width – appositional growth   Endochondral Ossification  
🗑
Perichondrium produces osteoblasts • They deposit a thin collar of bone, bony collar NOW the membrane (the former perichondrium) becomes the periosteum   Endochondral Ossification  
🗑
– In the center of the bone, some chondrocyte cells begin to hypertrophy (grow) & will burst. When the chondrocytes burst, they spill their contents inside the cartilage model. This spill alters the pH in the cartilage model. (primary ossification center)   Endochondral Ossification  
🗑
A nutrient artery punctures into the side of the bone and brings in nutrition creating a primary marrow cavity   Endochondral Ossification  
🗑
The osteoprogenitor cells are activated, they divide into osteoblast cells which lay down matrix and eventually the cells become mature osteocytes   Endochondral Ossification  
🗑
As hypertrophy continues along the diaphysis it eventually reaches the epiphyses and a second ossification center and marrow cavity is formed   Endochondral ossification  
🗑
