Q

Describe the hard parts of spongy bone

A

Space where bone marrow and blood vessels are found. Lacks ostenons and central canals. Provides strength while also being light weight. They will arrange and compact more around stress lines.

Q

What is the difference between the two different types of bone marrow?

A

Red marrow - hemopoetic tissue that produced red blood cells. Found in almost every child’s bones. Found in adults skull, ribs, sternum, pelvic girdle, and heads of large bones.
Yellow marrow - found in adults and is fatty marrow, does not produce blood like red marrow.

23
Q

What are the three types of cartilage and their arrangements?

A

Hyaline - lines the joints and surrounded by pericardium fibrous dense irregular connective tissue.
Elastic - Ear and nose, Surrounded by the pericardium fibrous dense irregular connective tissue
Fibrocartilage - disc in the back found between the vertebrae.

24
Q

What are the functions of cartilage?

A

Support, framework and attachments
Protection
Structural models for developing bones

25
Q

What are the two cells of cartilage and what is their function?

A

Chondroblasts - Builds the cartilage and secretes matrix

Chondrocytes - Mature chondroblasts trapped within the lacunae

26
Q

True or false

Cartilage has blood vessels that move nutrients and waste around.

A

False - There are no blood vessels so nutrients and waste must diffuse through the matrix

27
Q

Osteogenisis

A

Formation of bone

28
Q

What is mesenchyme?

A

Embryonic CT that is the starting point for bone muscle blood and other stuff

29
Q

Ossification that happens to flat bone

A

Intramembranous ossification (skull, clavicle, mandible)

30
Q

What happens during the formation of interamenbranous ossification?

A

Mesenchyme is made of CT and cartilage that developed fibrous sheets. The center of ossification expand and the parts that they are not touching is called fontanels (think the soft spots of the head)

31
Q

What happens when mesenchyme condenses?

A

Fibrous sheets are formed and blood vessels permeated the membrane. Mesenchyme cells turn into osteogentic cells which then turn into osteoblasts. Osteoblast then secrete sheets of collagenous osteoid tissue that is pre-bone

32
Q

What crystalizes the oteoid?

A

Minerals that then produce bone matrix.

Osteoblast produce then trapping them within the matrix which produces osteocytes. The end result of this is trabeculae.

33
Q

Spongy bone formation of intermembranous ossification

A
  1. Osteoblasts are bone
  2. Trabeculae - larger, grow together
  3. Cells within spaces form red bone marrow
34
Q

Compact bone formation of intermembranous ossification.

A

Mesenchymal cells surrounding outside of new bone condenses making the peritoneum. Osteoblasts continue to make bone matrix. This fills the space and creates an outside layer of compact bone.

35
Q

What are the results of intermembranous ossification?

A

Outer compact bone surface
Spongy bone center
Remodeling woven bone –> lamellar bone

36
Q

What is woven bone?

A

First type of bone formed
It is weak and collagenfibers are random
Osteoclasts breakdown

37
Q

What is lamellar bone?

A

Mature bone
Thin layer of lamellae
All the collagen fiber are arranged in parallel lines for strength.

38
Q

What is endochondral ossification?

A

Produced in most other bone (vertebrae, ribs, pelvic bones, limbs and parts of skulls)

39
Q

What stage of development does endochondral ossification?

A

12-20 weeks of devolopment from preexisting model.

Mesenchyme first transformed into hyaline cartilage.

40
Q

What are the two processes of endochondral ossification?

A

Chondrification : mesenchyme to hyaline cartilage

Ossification : hyaline to bone

41
Q

What is model growth?

A

The approximate shape of future bone before bone is formed.

42
Q

What are the six steps in endochondral ossification?

A

Mesenchyme to hyaline cartilage
Primary ossification center is where the chondryocyte inflate which means that the lacunae is large and the walls are calcified. This is when the bone collar formation. Blood vessels –> chondrocytes –> osteobalsts
Formation of medullary cavity - chondrocytes hypertorphy and die in both directions. Osteocytes and osteoblasts do work.
Secondary ossification center when spongy bone is formed.
Cavities separated by epithyseal plate and this is the growth zone.
Reserve cartilage in epiphyseal plate deleated.

43
Q

True or false:

Ossification stops after the person is full grown

A

False - ossification continues throughout life (growth and remodeling)

44
Q

How do bones elongate?

A

The epiphyseal plate is made of catilage and bone

Hyaline cartilage in the middle and transition zones on each side that is the cartilage turning into bone.

45
Q

What is the metaphysis?

A

The zone of transition facing the marrow cavity

46
Q

Interstital growth

A

Growth from within.

47
Q

Zone of reserve cartilage

A

Normal hyaline cartilage

48
Q

Zone of cell proliferation

A

Chondrocytes multiply and line up in columns of small flattened lacunae (interstital growth)

49
Q

Zone of hypertrophy

A

Stopping of mitosis; enlargement of chondrocytes and thinning of the lacuna walls

50
Q

Zone of calcification

A

Temporary calcification of cartilage matrix

Blood vessels enter the area

51
Q

Zone of bone deposition

A

Bone deposition by osteoblast (appositional)

Forms trabeculae of spongy bone

52
Q

What is appositional growth?

A

Occurs at bone surface and is the continual growth in diameter and thickness

53
Q

Wolffs law of bone

A

Architecture of bone determined by mechanical stresses placed on it
