Q

When does the differentiation of a monocyte into a macrophage take place?

A

When the M-CSF released by the osteblast binds to the M-CSF receptor on the monocyte.

Avascular = no blood vessels within its substance. Because of this cartilage is (1) slow to heal. Also, (2) nutrients and oxygen are derived from the blood vessels that surround the cartilage and must diffuse through the matrix to the cells.

Identify this tissue

A

Cancellous bone

94
Q

Too much PTH can lead to this

A

Osteitis fibrosa- eroded bone and fibrosis of the resulting spaces

95
Q

What are some characteristics of hyaline cartilage?

A

It is translucent, bluish gray to white in color, and it is solid yet flexible in rigidity.

96
Q

In a Haversian sytem, where would you find osteocytes?

True or False: Type II collagen is the primary fiber type found in fibrocartilage?

A

False; type I collagen are the primary fiber type found in fibrocartilage

98
Q
