Q

Starting from puberty, what initially happens in bone growth?

A

Epiphyses start to fuse with diaphysis

21
Q

Once your bones have finished growing, what happens to your growth plates?

A

They will ossify

22
Q

Are there any growth plates in fully grown bones?

A

No

23
Q

Explain the role of osteoblasts and osteoclasts in appositional growth

A

Osteoblast activity produces circumferential lamallae and osteoclasts mould bone shape and form medullary cavity

24
Q

Hyaline (articular) cartilage function

A

Resists compression

25
Q

How does the hyaline (articular) cartilage resist compression

A

By lots of water in the ECM

26
Q

Moulds to surfaces of bones where they articulate

A

Hyaline cartilage

27
Q

Creates smooth surface = frictionless movement

A

Hyaline cartilage

28
Q

Fibrocartilage function

A

Resists compression and tension

29
Q

How come fibrocartilage resists compression AND tension, while hyaline cartilage only resists compression?

A

More collagen fibres

30
Q

Collagen fibres arranged in bundles along the lines where there is going to be a pull occurs in…

A

Fibrocartilage

31
Q

Connect bone to bone
Restrict movement away from themselves

A

Ligaments

32
Q

Ligament structure

A

Collagen and elastin

33
Q

Connect muscle to bone

A

Tendons

34
Q

Less elastin than ligaments

A

Tendons

35
Q

Sum of bone surfaces that form an articulation

A

Bony congruence

36
Q

Less congruence = ?

A

more soft tissue support needed

37
Q

Fibrous joints structure

A

Ligament

38
Q

Cartilaginous joints structure

A

Varies

39
Q

Fibrous joint function

A

Limit movement
Provide stability

40
Q

Cartilaginous joint function

A

Some movement

41
Q

Fibrous joint example

A

Cranial sutures

42
Q

Cartilaginous joint example

A

Pubic symphysis

43
Q

Joint with least amount of movement

A

Fibrous joints

44
Q

Ligaments hold bone together in what joint

A

Fibrous

45
Q

Joint with some movement

A

Cartilaginous joints

46
Q

Fibrocartilage holds bone together in what joint

A

Cartilaginous joints

47
Q

Joint with the most amount of movement

A

Synovial joints
