Bone Flashcards
Bone classification
compact vs cancellous (spongy)
lamellar vs woven
Lamellar bone
arranged in sheets
80% within compact bone
20% within cancellous bone
Woven bone
arranged randomly
growing and developing bones
Bone components
Collagen type I
Cells: osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteoclasts
Endosteum/periosteum
Inner/outer circumferential lamellae
Haversian systems/canals
Osteoblasts
cuboidal
eccentrically located nucleus
Osteocytes
most abundant
appear flattened
Osteoclasts
large, multi-nucleated cells
function in resorption of bone
Long bones
diaphysis
epiphysis
Diaphysis
compact bone surrounding marrow cavity
Epiphysis
spongy bone within compact bone
cartilage on joint surfaces
Epiphyseal plate
disc of cartilage that grows during childhood
outer fibrous layer of dense irregular CT
inner osteogenic layer (periosteum) containing primitive stem cells
compact bone
spongy bone
blood vessel
marrow
medullary cavity

epiphyseal line
Compact bone of shaft
circumferential lamellae
concentric lamellae
