Cartilage and Bone Flashcards
It is a special type of dense regular CT
Cartilage
Bone
What cells are in the bone
Osteocytes
What cells are in the cartilage
Chondrocytes
It is the inside cavities
Lacunae
It is gelatinous, firm.
Intercellular matrix of cartilage
It is calcified rigid hard
Intercellular matrix of bone
What are the types of cartilage
Hyaline
Elastic
Fibrous
There are blood vessels and lymph vessels in the cartilage. T/F
F
It is the most abundant type of cartilage in the body
Hyaline cartilage
It forms the bulk of the skeleton of the fetus
Hyaline cartilage
It fills the lacunae where it resides
Chondrocytes
This cell is capable of mitosis
Young chondrocytes
It is chondrocytes that stay close together that appear to occupy the same lacuna
Isogenous cells
It consists of an amorphous ground substance where extracellular fibers are embedded
Cartilage Matrix
Water accounts for what % of the weight of the tissue
70% - 80%
What is cartilage made of
Proteoglycans
It is the intercellular substance that surrounds a lacuna
Territorial matrix
It is the area in between the territorial matrix
Interterritorial matrix
It is the layer of territorial matrix
Pericellular capsule
It is a fibronectin like substance that promotes the adherence of collagen fibers to the cell surface of the chondryocytes
Chronodectin
What type of collagen are in the extracellular fiber in hyaline cartilage
Type II collagen
It is more flexible than hyaline cartilage and is yellowish in fresh specimens
Elastic cartilage
Where can the elastic cartilage be found
auricle external acoustic meatus ear auditory tube epiglottis larynx
What type of collagen is elastic cartilage
Type II collagen
This cartilage can withstand greater stress than the 2. It makes up the intervertebral discs, articular discs, and glenoid, and acetabular labra
Fibrous cartilage
This can be found in the tendons and ligaments
Fibrous cartilage
What type of collage in fibrous cartilage
Type I collagen
What kind of tissue is fibrous cartilage
dense regular CT
All cartilages are enveloped by this except articular cartilages
Perichondrium
What is the outer layer of the perichondrium
Fibrous layer
What is the inner layer of the perichondrium
Chondrogenic layer
It is cells of the chondrogenic layer apposed to the surface of the cartilage are stem cells
Osteoprogenitor cells
It synthesizes the precursors of the extracellular fibers
Chondroblasts
It comprises the bulk of the adult skeleton form a rigid framework in the body
Bone
What are the classification of the bones
Long, short, flat, irregular and sesamoid bones
It is the bones that are confined to the extremities; typically consists of a body or shaft
Long bone
It is bones that are cuboidal and are confined to the wrist and ankle
Short bone
It is bones that are typical by sternum, scapulae and many bones of the skull
Flat bones
It is bones that incluse vertebrae, hip bones
Irregular bones
It is bones that develop in tendons that rub bony surfaces; example is the patella
Sesamoid bone
What are the forms of bone tissue
Spongy and compact bone
There is more compact than spongy bone in the body. T/F
F
What % does the spongy bone account for the skeletal mass
20 - 25%
What % does the compact bone account for the skeletal mass
75 - 80%
It consists of an outer layer that blends with a more cellular layer
Periosteum
