Bones Flashcards
What is added to the ground substance of bones to make it stiff?
calcium phosphate
(combines with calcium hydroxide to make hydroxyapatite or HA)
What does parathyroid hormone do?
- Stimulates osteoclasts
- Stimulates kidneys to keep more calcium
- Stimulates intestines to absorb more calcium
Name the joint: Annular ligament
Elbow
Type of motion where a joint “straightens out” and goes a little extra
hyperextension
Name the joint: Coracohumeral ligament
Shoulder
What does Thyroxine do?
With growth hormone, stimulates osteoblast activity and the synthesis of bone matrix
Where do blood vessels enter the bone?
nutrient foramen
Name the ligament: Glenohumeral ligament
Shoulder
What percentage (by weight) of bone is calcium phosphate?
66%
What type of joint is the hip?
triaxial synovial diarthrosis
How do sex hormones affect bones?
Both estrogens and androgens stimulate osteoblast activity and bone matrix syntheses.
Estrogen stimulates the closure of epiphyseal plates earlier than androgens.
Label things
Pericardium layers
Outer layer of fibrious connective tissue
Inner layer of condrablasts
Name the joint: Interspinous ligament
Spine
Type of growth where long bones get longer
endochondral growth
What type of movement?
dorsiflexion
What type of movement?
Opposition
Name the joint: Coracoclavicular ligament
shoulder
Red bone marrow
makes blood
(in adults mostly in flalt / irregular bones)
like an elongated bursa around a tendon
tendon sheath
Name the joint: Tibial collateral ligament
Knee
epiphysis
head of a bone
Name the joint: Pubofemoral ligament
Hip
Name the joint: Supraspinous ligament
Spine
How does growth hormone bones?
Stimulates osteoblasts to and the synthesis of bone matrix
interstitial growth of cartilage
Existing condracytes in lacunae divide and get bigger
What type of motion is this?
plantar flexion
Type of motion where the joint moves into the “closed” position
Flexion
Type of growth where bones increase in diameter
Appositional growth
circumferential lamalle
What percentage (by weight) of bone is cells?
2%
What type of movement is this?
Lateral flexion of the neck
What kind of shoulder motion is a softball pitch?
Circumduction
What type of movement?
supination
Yellow bone marrow
fat storage
Which gland releases parathiroid hormone?
Parathiroid gland
An amphiarthrosis joined by fibrocartilages
symphysis
Where would you find a synchondrosis?
pre-fused epiphisyl plate, sternocostal joints
Type of joint with a little movement
Amphiarthrosis
Which hormone causes the kidneys to discard less calcium?
parathiroid hormone
Large canal down the center of long bones
medullary cavity
Which gland releases Thyroxine?
Thiroid (follicle cells)
Small, synovial fluid filled pockets reducing friction for tendons or ligaments
bursae
Name the joint: Transverse acetabular ligament
hip
Functions of the skeletal system
- Make blood cells
- Storage (minerals and lipids - mostly calcium)
- Support
- Protect soft organs
- Leverage for movement
