material being secreted by osteoblasts that has not yet mineralized

A

osteoid (pre-bone)

22
Q

organic (major) components of bone

A

Type 1 collagen Non-collagen binding proteins

23
Q

which one of the following cell types do not divide? A. stem cell B. chondroblast C. osteoclast D. osteogenic progenitor cell

A

osteoclast

24
Q

The outer fibrous layer of the perichondrium contains ______ that are producing type __ collagen

A

fibroblasts, type I

25
Q

Bone growth in length is _______. Bone growth in width is _________.

A

endochondral; intramembranous

26
Q

Bone marrow is found in the ____ bone, where the surface area to volume ratio is much higher and is much less dense than _____ bone.

A

cancellous (trabecular); compact

27
Q

Collagen fibers are embedded in a proteoglycan rich ground substance and contain space-filling, negatively charged, water-binding, sulfated ______ side chains.

A

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs)

27
Q

type 1 collagen, proteoglycans, non-collagenous proteins and glycoproteins are all examples of _____

A

osteoids

28
Q

name 2 things that lead to loss of bone matrix

A

increased parathyroid hormone, excess thyroxine

29
Q

Non-sulfated GAG that tethers together many proteoglycans via link proteins

A

hyaluronan

30
Q

primary center of ossification

A

diaphysis

31
Q

what are the steps of intramembranous ossification?

A
  1. capillary grows into tissue 2. surrounding mesenchymal cells become osteogenic and differentiate into osteoblasts, which secrete matrix 3. matrix calcifies and osteoblasts become osteocytes, which form canaliculi 4. spicules form and enlarge to trabeculae 5. immature (woven) bone is replaced by mature (lamellar) bone. 6. subsequently, two plates of bone (tables) develop on the periphery 7. tables are separated by diplöe (spongy bone)
32
Q

this bone growth disorder results from a lack of vitamin D, calcium or phosphate, and is characterized by excess osteoid and skeletal deformities

A

rickets (osteomalacia)

34
Q

These cells play an important role in bone resorption and are derived from myeloid progenitors.

A

osteoclasts

35
Q

area of hyaline cartilage that continues to proliferate, thereby preventing fusion of metaphysis and bony epiphysis

A

epiphyseal plate

37
Q

____ cartilage makes up the costal and articular cartilages and epihphyseal plates.

A

Hyaline

39
Q

Cartilage growth factor produced in the liver

A

somatomedin C

40
Q

_____ is important for the formation of collagen and stimulates alkaline phosphatase

A

TGF-beta

41
Q

what are the steps of endochondral ossification?

A
  1. capillary grows into perichondrium 2. inner cells of perichondrium become osteoblasts which begin secreting matrix and forming a bone collar 3. capillaries invade cartilage @ midpoint of shaft 4. chondrocytes hypertrophy and cartilage calcifies/disintegrates 5. primary, and later secondary, sites of ossification are esablished 6. bone grows in length and width with resorption occurring concomitantly
43
