Bones, joints, and synovial fluid Flashcards
are cellular structures where by the intracellular fluid environment of the cell is surrounded by a rigid, calcified frame.
bone
gives an identifiable form to the body of an animal and provides protection to the cranial, thoracic, abdominal, and pelvic viscera.
skeleton
are dynamic structures that are capable of accommodating a different loads and stresses by remodeling their shape.
bone
is made up of bones of the front and hind limbs and their respective pectoral girdle and pelvic girdle
appendicular skeleton
is composed of the scapula, clavicle, and coracoids
pelvic girdle
pelvic girdle is composed of the;
ilium, ischium, pubis
appears to be solid
compact bone
also called cancellous bone has the appearance of a sponge
spongy bone
is composed of an outer fibrous layer and an inner cell-rich layer containing osteoblasts or other cells that can become osteoblasts in response to an appropriate stimulus.
periosteum
synthesize and secrete the organic substance of bone and participate in the mineralization of the organic matrix.
osteoblasts
is responsible for the increase in diameter of bones and also functions in the healing of fractures.
periosteum
4 different types of cells are associated with bone
- osteogenic cells
- osteoblasts
- osteocytes
- osteoclast
comprises the population of cells in the innermost layer of the periosteum…
osteogenic cells
is the differenciated bone-forming cell responsible for the production of bone matrix
osteoblast
the mature bone cell and represents a transfomed osteoblast
osteocytes
