Bone formation and the Axial Skeleton Flashcards
intermediate mesoderm
UG development
lateral plate mesoderm
lining body wall and body cavities such as peritoneal and pleural (limb skeleton)
paraxial mesoderm
segmented into somites sclerotome: occipital bone, vertebral column, ribs myotome: muscles (axial skeleton)
Notochord–>
Nucleus pulposus
limbs extend from
apical ectodermal ridge
epiphysis
end of long bone
diaphysis
shaft
compact bone
osteons
spongy bone
trabeculae
communicatios btwn one osteon and another
Volkmann’s Canal
intramembranous ossification
flat bones–clavicle, mandible, skull, face mesenchymal–>osteoblast–>osteocyte–>spongy bone–>compact bone
endochondral ossification
long–limbs, vertebrae, and hips mesenchymal–>cartilage–>osteocyte–>bone need epiphyseal plate

incisive fossa
SCALP
S= skin with hair (at least in most people!)
C= connective tissue
A= aponeurosis- this is a tough dense connective tissue
L= loose connective tissue
P= pereostium: bone
Bones of the neurocranium
- 1 ethmoid bone
- 1 frontal bone
- 1 occipital bone
- 2 parietal
- 1 sphenoid
- 2 temporal
Bones of the viscerocranium
- Inferior nasal concha (2)
- Lacrimal bones (2)
- Mandible
- Maxilla (2)
- Nasal bones (2)
- Palatine bones (2)
- Vomer
- Zygomatic bones (2)

vomer

mandibular foramen

horizonatal plate of palatine

pterion: weakest part of skull
sutral/intra-sutral bone
Wormian bone

- crista galli
- Cribriform plate
- Perpendicular plate

superior orbital fissure
processes of the maxiallary bone
- Alveolar
- Frontal
- Palatine
- Zygomatic

F

Superior articular facet
G

transverse process
H

Vertebral foramen

lateral mass of atlas
recieve the condyles of the occipital bone fo the skull
- Spinous processes are long and point inferiorly
- Vertebral foramen are circular
- Articulate with tubercles of ribs
- Superior articular facets point posteriorly
- Inferior articular processes point anteriorly
Thoracic vertebrae

zygapophyseal joints
synovial plane joints

nucleus pulposus

Anulus Fibrosus

interspinous ligaments

supraspinous ligament

anterior longitudnal ligament

posterior longitudbal ligament
inside vertebral canal
highest part is tectoral membrane

ligamentum flavum
connects one lamina to the next
connects first throacic vertebra to the external occipiutal protuberabce

nuchal ligament (ligamentum nuchae)

transverse ligament (cruciform ligament)

alar ligaments
attached from the odontoid to the occipital condyles
deep to the cruciform
‘check ligaments’
The laminae of either L5 or S2 fail to develop normally and fuse
decreased by folic acid
spina bifida
spina bifida occulta
mildest form
spina bifida cystica
one of more vertenral arches completely fail to develop and meninges be herniated
