Bone And Articulations Flashcards
What kind of growth for cartilage has chondrocytes housed in lacunae undergo mitosis, following mitosis the 2 cells occupy a single lacuna, the 2 cells synthesis new matrix and push apart?
Interstitial growth
What kind of cartilage growth has stem cells at the internal edge of the perichondrium divide forming new stem cells and chondroblasts, the new chondrocytes produce new matrix?
Appositional growth
What are the four types of bone based on shape?
•Long bones
•Short bones
•Flat bones
•Irregular bones
What type of bone cells are stem cells derived from mesenchyme and found within the periosteum and endosteum?
Osteoprogenitor (grandparents)
What type of bone cells are formed from stem cells and produce new bone?
Osteoblasts (parents)
What are mature bone cells?
Osteocytes (you)
What type of bone cells dissolve bone matrix?
Osteoclasts (clasts =dissolve)
What is bone matrix?
The material formed by bone cells and lying in between them
What type of bone lies on the outside of an individual bone?
Cortical (compact) bone
What are the components of the bone matrix?
•One third organic components
•Two thirds inorganic components
What type of bone forms a latticework within an individual bone?
Cancellous (spongy) bone
What is the basic structural and functional unit of cortical bone?
An osteon
What are two synonyms for bone growth?
•Osteogenesis
•Ossification
What type of bone growth occurs in the flat bones of the skull, some facial bones, the mandible, and the central part of the clavicle?
Intermembranous ossification
What type of bone growth occurs in the bones of extremities, vertebrae, and the ends of the clavicles?
