BONE AND MUSCLE Flashcards
Grossly, bones are classified as ?
compact and spongy bone.
w/ medullary cavity (spaces
Spongy Bone
found at the external surface; doesn’t have cavity to remain to be hard and compact
compact bone
Contains the osteons
COMPACT (CORTICAL) BONE
Periosteum is made up of
dense irregular CT
functional unit of the bone
Osteons or Haversian System
▪ Channel found at the center of the osteon
▪ Forms the central axis of the osteon
CENTRAL CANAL
CENTRAL CANAL Contains
blood vessels, nerves, and lymphatics
concentric layers of mineralized bone extracellular
matrix called
concentric lamellae
Small spaces between lamellae that contains the mature
bone cells called osteocytes
LACUNA / LACUNAE
- Minute canals radiating from the lacuna
- Provides avenues for exchange of metabolites between
the cells and the nearest perivascular space
CANALICULI
Boundary of an osteon
CEMENT LINE
Scattered around the intact osteons are irregularly
shaped parallel lamellae called
INSTERSTITIAL LAMELLAE
Remains of old osteons destroyed by the osteoclast.
INSTERSTITIAL LAMELLAE
Not present on the spongy bone
Osteon (Haversian system)
making central canals connected to each other
Volkmann’s/ Perforating canals
forms the inner layer of all bones.
Spongy bone
spongey/cancellous bone is covered by
endosteum
endosteum is what type of epthelium
simple squamous epithelium
osteoblast trapped in the matrix that they secrete
osteocyte
cells that synthesize bone
osteoblast
bone cell that breaks down done tissue
osteoclast
osteoblasts are what shape of epithelium
cuboidal/columnar
Osteoblasts keep on depositing bone matrix until the bone matrix surround it to become?
osteocyte
