49
Q

the basic structural and functional unit of mature compact bone is the..

A

50
Q

A

center of osteon; carries blood vessels and nerves

54
Q

concentric lamellae

A

rings of bone around central canal

55
Q

osteocytes

A

housed in lacunae between concentric lamellae

56
Q

canaliculi

A

tiny, interconnecting channels within bone that extend between lacunae
allows osteocytes to connect and communicate

57
Q

perforating canals

A

run perpendicular to and help connect multiple central canals
passageways for blood vessels and nerves

58
Q

circumferential lamellae

A

rings of bone immediately internal to the periosteum or internal to the endosteum
run the entire circumference of the bone

59
Q

interstitial lamellae

A

leftover parts of osteons that have been partially resorbed

60
Q

microscopic anatomy of spongy bones (2)

A

no osteons

trabecular contains parallel lamellae

61
Q

ossification

A

the formation and development of bone

62
Q

two patterns of ossification

A

intramembranous ossification

endochondral ossification

63
Q

intramembranous ossification

A

develops from mesenchyme

produces flat bones of the skull, some facial bones, mandible, and central portion of clavicle

64
Q

endochondral ossification

A

begins with hyaline cartilage model

produces majority of bones in the body

65
Q

intramembranous ossification steps (4)

A
  1. ossification centers form within thickened regions of mesenchyme
  2. osteoid undergoes calcification
  3. woven bone and surrounding periosteum form
  4. lamellar bone replaces woven bone, as compact bone and spongy bone form
66
Q

osteoid

A

progenitor matrix that will end up making bone

67
Q

woven bone

A

a step of intramembranous ossification

68
Q

lamellar bone

A

compact + spongy bone

69
Q

endochondral ossification steps (6)

A
  1. the fetal hyaline cartilage model develops
  2. cartilage calcifies and a periosteal bone collar forms
  3. the primary ossification center forms in the diaphysis
  4. secondary ossification centers form in the epiphysis
  5. bone replaces cartilage, except the articular cartilage and epiphyseal plates
  6. epiphyseal plates ossify and form epiphyseal lines
70
Q

Why do we want growth to continue in the diaphysis?

A

Bones need to continue growing lengthwise from the inside because we want growth to a longer bone without disrupting the end of the bone where the joints are occurring.

71
Q

Growth of bone (2)

A

interstitial growth

appositional growth

72
Q

interstitial growth (bone)

A

a long bone’s growth in length, occurring in the epiphyseal plate

73
Q

appositional growth (bone)

A

growth in a bone’s diameter, occurring in the periosteum

osteoclasts will consume old bone to allow the diameter of the medullary cavity to grow

74
