23
Q

The major cartilage collagen is

A

type 2

24
Q

Where is elastic cartilage located

A

epiglottis, ear, auditory tube

25
Q

you can stain elastic cartilage with what

A

van gieson or weigert elastic stain

26
Q

How is fibrous cartilage similar to dense connective tissue

A

it contains type 1 collagen fibers

27
Q

where is fibrous cartilage found

A

intervertebral disks, pubic symphysis, insertions of some tendons

28
Q

What is the difference between appositional and interstitial growth of cartilage

A

Interstitial is within tissue- results from cell division of preexisting chondrocytes
Appositional growth is on the surface of tissue- chondroblasts deposit collagen or matrix on surface of preexisting cartilage

29
Q

Functions of bone

A

protection, movement, electrolyte balance, blood formation

30
Q

bone forming cell

A

osteoblasts

31
Q

What cell synthesizes osteiod (type 1 collagen and ground substance)

A

osteoblasts

32
Q

osteoblasts differentiate from

A

mesenchymal stem cells

33
Q

osteoprogenitor cells can differentiate into osteoblasts. what stimulates this

A

stress and fractures

34
Q

mature osteoblasts surrounded by their own matrix, enclosed in lacunae.

A

osteocyte

35
Q

function of osteocyte

A

maintain bone density and blood concentration of calcium and phosphate

36
Q

what kind of junctions are present to provide communication between osteocytes

A

gap junctions

37
Q

osteocytes are interconnected by slender channels called

A

canaliculi

38
Q

function of osteoclasts

A

bone resorption and remodeling

39
Q

osteoclasts lie in pits called

A

howship’s lacunae

40
Q

bone grows by interstitial or appositional? why

A

appositional , cells cannot multiply in a calcified matrix

41
Q

compact vs spongy bone

A

compact bone is arranged in haversian systems

spongy bone has a trabecular appearance and found in interior of bone

42
Q

what is the difference between intramembranous and endochondral ossification

A

endochondral- bone develops from a preexisting model of hyaline cartilage

43
Q

this hormone is produced by the anterior pituitary gland, stimulated overall growth of the body, especially that of the epiphyseal plate

A

growth hormone

44
Q

excessive growth hormone during growing years causes what

A

giantism

45
Q

excessive growth hormone during adult years causes

A

acromegaly

46
Q

deficiency of growth hormone during growing years causes

A

dwarfism

47
Q

decrease in bone mass associated with a normal ratio of mineral to matrix results from decreased bone formation, increased bone resorption, or both

A

osteoporosis

48
Q

osteoporosis commonly occurs in:

A

old age, postmenopausal women, and immobile patients

49
Q

results from calcium deficiency in adults ; characterized by deficient calcification of newly formed bone and already formed bone

A

osteomalacia

50
Q

results from calcium deficiency (vitamin d deficiency is the common cause) in children, characterized by deformed epiphyseal plates

A

rickets

51
Q

genetic disorder characterized by heavy bones due to defective osteoclastic activity

A

osteopetrosis

52
Q

What permits connection between the Haversian canal and lacuna ?

A

Canaliculi

53
Q

Epiphyseal plate is also known as

A

Growth plate

54
Q

What are some examples of where Intramembranous ossification happen

A

Flat bones of skull
Pelvic girdle
Part of scapula

55
Q

Growth plates are only in

A

Immature animals

56
Q

Different zones of the epiphyseal(growth) plates

A

From epiphysis to diaphysis :
Zone of reserved cartilage (randomly arranged Chondrocytes, no proliferation )
Zone of proliferation (Chondrocytes undergo diffusion and are organized into columns)
Zone of hypertrophy(Chondrocytes and lacunae are enlarged)
Zone of calcification (matrix begins to mineralized,Chondrocytes die)
Zone of ossification (osteoblasts deposit osteoid on cartilage)
