A

process by which bone forms

4 ways:

  4. repair of fractures
46

4 Zones of Epiphyseal (growth) plate

A
  1. Zone of resting cartilage
  2. Zone of proliferating cartilage
  3. Zone of hypertrophic cartilage
  4. Zone of calcified cartilage
59
Q

What is the only way that the diaphysis can inc in length?

A

Activity of the eipiphyseal plate

60

bony structure that is left once epiphyseal plate fades after adolescence.
with appearance of line, bone growth in length stops completely

61
Q

Growth in thickness of bone can only occur by

A

appositional growth
same for cartilage growth in thickness

62
Q

Steps associated with bone growth in thickness

A
  1. periosteal cells differentiate into osteoblasts
  2. ridges fold together and fuse, and the groove becomes a tunnel that encloses the blood vessel
  3. osteoblasts in the ednosteum deposite bone extracellular matrix, forming new concentric lamellae
  4. osteoblasts under periosteum deposite new circumferential lamellae further increaising the thickness of the bone
63
Q

Bone remodeling

A

ongoing replacement of old bone tissue by new bone tissue
involves bone resorption + bone deposition

64
Q

bone resorption

A

the removal of minerals and collagen fibers from bone by ostreoclasts
results: destruction of bone extracellular matrix

65
Q

bone deposition

A

the addition of minerals and collagen fibers to bone by osteoblasts
results: formation of bone extracellular matrix

66
Q

Factors affecting bone growth and bone remodeling

A
  1. minerals (lots of Ca + P, little bit of Mg, Fl, + Mn
  2. Vitamins (A, C, D, K, + B12)
  3. Hormones (childhood insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), thyroid hormones
67
Q

Sex hormones

A

estrogens + androgens (testosterone)

responsible for growth spurt
also sex specific bone differences
estrogen stops bone growth, so stops sooner for girls because they have more estrogen.

68
Q

What is the body’s main calcium reserve?

A

bone is the body’s main calcium reserve and stores 99% of Ca

69
Q

Parathyroid hormone PTH

A

hormone that is most important for regulating Ca2+ exchange
secreted by parathyroid glands

70
Q

Calcitriol

A

the active form of Vit D
a hormone that promotes calcium absoprtions from food from the gastrointestinal tract into blood

71
Q

Calcitonin CT

A

hormone that works to dec blood calcium level.
promotes bone formation and dec calcium level in blood
effective drug treating osteoporosis bec slows bone resorption
