Q

what produces hyaline cartilage

A

chondrocytes from the epiphyseal plate

17
Q

when do your bones stop growing

A

girls=after puberty

boys=20s-30s

18
Q

what are osteocytes

A

mature bone cells

19
Q

explain how osteocytes, lacunae, lamellae, and central canals are related

A

osteocytes are mature bone cells that are found in tiny cavaties within the matrix which is the lacunae. The lacunae make up the concentric circles of the lamellae the canals that surround in the central canals

20
Q

how is microscopic anatomy broken down and what does each part entail

A

cytology=analysis of structure of individual cells

histology=examination of tissues

21
Q

what are perforating canals?

A

canals that run into the compact bone at right angles to the shaft that completes the communication pathay from the outside of the bone to its interior

22
Q

define a greenstick fracture

A

bone does not break all the way around the outside layer

23
Q

what hormone is released into blood during bone remodeling

A

parathyroid hormone

24
Q

what is the head

A

a bony expansion carried on a narrow neck

25
Q

two factors that affect height

A

genetics and nutrition
