Bone And Articulations Flashcards
List and define the two types of growth that cartilage undergoes.
Interstitial growth
•Chondrocytes housed in lacunae undergo mitosis.
•Following mitosis, the 2 cells occupy a single lacuna.
•The 2 cells synthesize new matrix & push apart
Appositional growth
•Stem cells at the internal edge of the perichondrium divide forming new stem cells and chondroblasts
•The new chondrocytes produce new matrix
List and define the four types of bone based on shape.
Long bones- femur
Short bones- tarsal
Flat bones- skull
Irregular bones, aka weird- vertebrae
What type of bone cells are stem cells derived from mesenchyme and found within the periosteum and endosteum?
Osteoprogenitor
What type of bone cells are formed from stem cells and produce new bone?
Osteoblasts.
Blasts=Build
What are mature bone cells?
Osteocytes
What type of bone cells dissolve bone matrix?
Osteoclasts
Coasts=Dissolve
The material (organic and inorganic) formed by bone cells and lying in between them.
Bone matrix
What type of bone lies on the outside of an individual bone?
Cortical (compact) bone
What are one third of the organic components of the bone matrix?
Collagen fibers and ground substance
What are two thirds of the inorganic components of the bone matrix?
Calcium phosphate
Calcium hydroxide
Calcium carbonate
Ions of sodium, magnesium, sulfate, and fluoride
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 (Haversian system)
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?
Intramembranous ossification
What is the growth process of Intramembranous ossification?
Ossification centers form within the thickened regions of mesenchyme.
Bone matrix (osteoid) undergoes calcification.
Woven bone and its surrounding periosteum form.
Lamellar bone replaces woven bone, as compact bone and spongy bone form.
What type of bone growth occurs in the bones of extremities, vertebrae, and the ends of the clavicles?
Endochondral ossification
What is the growth process of Endochondral ossification?
The fetal hyaline cartilage model develops.
Cartilage calcifies, and a bone collar forms.
The primary ossification center forms in the diaphysis.
Secondary ossification centers form in the epiphysis.
Bone replaces cartilage, except the articular cartilage and epiphyseal plates
Epiphyseal plates ossify and form epiphyseal lines.
What is the anatomical term for “growth plate”?
Epiphyseal plate
Where does a bone increase in length?
Epiphyseal plate
What type of bone growth increases the length of a bone?
Interstitial growth
