Q

What are 2 types of bone growth and where does it occur?

A

1) Intramembranous ossification

  • Occurs within “membranes” of primitive mesenchymal tissue
  • Flat bones of the skull

2) Endochondral ossification

  • Occurs in majority of bones of theskeleton.
  • Bone develops from hyaline cartilage and replaced by osseous tissue in the ossification centers
  • Limbs, vertebral column, pelvis, base of skull

Q

What is Osteopetrosis?

A
  • Inherited disease caused by osteoclast failure to reabsorb the primary spongiosa
  • This failure results in an increased bone density and lack of medullary (bone marrow) spaces.
