Cartilage & bone Flashcards
hyaline cartilage
look for: chondrocytes that reside in lacunae, isogenous group (partial division), perichondrium with fibrocytes (surrounding matrix holding chondrocytes..), chondroblasts (inner layer of perichondrium called chondrogenic layer)
slide #15- trachea

elastic cartilage
slide #30- pinna of ear or epiglottis

fibrocartilage
slide #31- intervertebral disc

compact bone
look for: haversian system (osteon), lacunae, canaliculi (rays of sun), concentric lamellae (concentric layers of bone around osteon), interstitial lamellae (between concentric lamellae), volkmann’s canal (anastomoses btwn central canals), circumferential lamellae (external lamellae)
slide #32- ground/dried bone

developing bone
look for:
osteocytes within periostium
osteoblasts within endosteum- bone marrow
epiphysis (hyalin cartilage)
diaphysis (shaft of bone)
endosteum (interor to compact- faces marrow)
compact bone (of the daphysis collar)
spongy bone (of marrow cavity)
marrow (filling the marrow cavity with developing blood cells)
osteoblast (hand around edge of newly forming bone)
slide #33- fetal finger
