6.4-6.9 Flashcards
Small arteries accompanied by nerves, enter the diaphysis through many perforating canals and supply the periosteum and outer part of compact bone
Periosteal arteries
Large artery that passes through a hole near the center of the diaphysis
Nutrient artery
The hole that the nutrient artery passes through in compact bone
Nutrient foramen
Enter the metaphyses of a long bone, together with the nutrient artery, supply the red bone marrow and bone tissue of the metaphyses
Metaphyseal arteries
Enter the epiphyses of a long bone and supply the red bone marrow and bone tissue of the epiphyses
Epiphyseal arteries
Accompany the nutrient artery and exit through the diaphysis
Nutrient veins
Accompany their respective arteries and exit through the epiphyses and metaphyses respectfully
Epiphyseal and metaphyseal veins
Accompany their respective arteries and exit through the periosteum
Periosteal veins
Process by which bone forms
Ossification
One of the two types of ossification where bone forms directly within mesenchyme
(Pg. 176 for full steps)
Intramenbranous ossification
One of the types of ossification where bone forms with in hyaline cartilage that develops from mesenchyme
(Pg. 177-178 for full steps)
Endochondral ossification
Growth that increases in length
Interstitial growth
Growth at the outer surface
Appositional growth
Once the perichondrium starts to form bone, it is known as the _____.
Periosteum
Region where bone tissue will replace most of the cartilage
