Bone Tissue Flashcards
Functions of bone
support soft tissues and provide attachment points for muscles (origins and insertions), storage (calcium phosphate) and lipids, protection (brain, heart, and lungs), blood cell production in bone marrow, leverage for skeletal muscles
Bone that develops within tendons due to friction
seasmoid bones (patella)
Types of bones
long bone, flat bones, irregular bones, short bones, and seasmoid bones
precursor to matrix, made by osteoblasts
osteoids
fibers+ground substance
matrix
matrix composed of?
25% water, 25% collagen fibers, and 50% mineral salts (calcium phosphate)
storage bank of calcium phosphate in bone matrix forms?
strong crystals
run along long-axis, tough and flexible, weakest point is side of bone
collage fibers
combination of collagen and crystals gives bone?
strength but flexibilty
lateral bowing of bone
rickets
breakdown of hyaline cartilage
osteoarthritis
develops into an osteoblasts
osteoprogenitor cell
builds bone matrix
osteoblasts
maintains bone tissue
osteocytes
breaks down bone extracellular matrix, from white blood cell lineage, weakens bones, estrogen and testosterone
osteoclasts
tough membrane on outer surface of bone, contains outer (fibrous) and inner (cellular/osteogenic) layers, connected to bone with perferating (Sharpey’s) fibers, vascular, joint capsules, tendons, ligaments (collagen), bone growth and repair, attaches bone to deep fascia (dense irregular tissue)
periosteum
lines marrow cavity (medullary cavity), covers spongy bone at ends of long bones, covers internal central canal, incomplete cellular layer, contains osteoblasts, osteoprogenitor cells, and osteoclasts
endosteum
dense, solid, on outside of long bones, heavy
compact bone
