16
Q

What are periosteum

A

Covers the outside of bone except on the articular surface

17
Q

Osteocyte

A

Bone cell

18
Q

Haversian canal

A
  • runs vertically

- contains blood vessels and nerves to supply and nourish osteocytes

19
Q

Osteon

A
  • units of bone

The cylinder thing the Haversian canal sits in

20
Q

Lamellae

A

The stuff that makes up the cylinder

21

  • channels through bone matrix
  • horizontal
  • blood vessels in vc join with blood vessels in hc to get blood in bones
22
Q

Lacuna

A

Small cavity in matrix where cells are contained

23
Q

How does a fracture heal?

28
Q

Endochondral

A

Grows into and replaces cartilage

A

Developed from fibrous tissue membranes

Think why baby skull is soft
