BIO 190 - Skeletal System 1 Flashcards
red marrow
- blood cells
- infants: central marrow cavities
- adults: interior of epiphysis
yellow marrow
- adipose tissue (fat)
- medullary cavity, central cavity of shaft
intramembranous ossification
- fast
- develops from embryonic tissue and layers of connective tissue
- in flat bones, skull, some facial bones
endochondral ossification
- from hyaline cartilage
- primary ossification center: diaphysis
- secondary ossification center: epiphysis
transverse fracture
- straight line across
- alignment still there
oblique fracture
angle that is not 90 degrees
spiral fracture
twisting
comminuted fracture
shatter
impacted fracture
one fragment driven into another
greenstick fracture
- partial
- only one side of bone is broken
open/compound fracture
through skin
closed/simple fracture
does not tear through skin
fracture treatment
- closed reduction: manipulation by hand
- open reduction: manipulation by surgery
What are the 4 steps in bone repair?
- fracture hematoma: clotting, blood-filled swelling
- internal and external fibrocartilage: form to splint bone
- cartilage (of the calli) turns to spongy bone
- remodeling: osteoblasts and clasts
rickets osteomalacia
- soft bones
- bowl legs
- due to deficiency in vitamin d
osteoporosis
- bone atrophy/porous bone
- occurs inside of bone
rheumatoid arthritis
- autoimmune disease, attacks articular cartilage
- scar tissue form and connects bone together, fuse
- flare ups and remission, vulnerability to other infections
osteoarthritis (OA)
- articular cartilage gets soft, frayed, and breaks down
- bone spurs: bony projections on edge of bone
gouty arhtritis
- uric acid collects in blood
- deposited as crystals into soft joint tissues
- drugs, diet restrictions, weight loss
synarthrosis
non movable
amphiarthrosis
slightly movable
diarthrosis
freely movable
fibrous joints
- synarthrosis
- joined by fibrous connective tissue
- sutures in skull, periodontal membranes, distal ends of tib fib, middle of radius/ulna
cartilaginous joints
- amphiarthrosis
- tough and strong
- pubic symphysis, intervertebral disks
