Q

steps of intramembranous ossification

A
  1. the stem cells of the mesenchyme (embryonic tissue) differentiate into osteoblasts and secrete matrix (turns into ossification centers)
  2. formation of bony spicules (they are reaching out from the ossification sites and they are pulling them together, forming larger ossification sites)
  3. entrapment of blood vessels (important for nutrients being provided to the cells

47
Q

endochondral ossification

A
  1. cartilage in the middle begins to calcify and die
  2. the stem cells on the outside turn into osteoblasts and build a bony collar in response to the cartilage death in center
  3. creation of the primary ossification center when blood vessels enter the middle of the hyaline and bring osteoblasts and osteoclasts with it
  4. formation of the medullary cavity
  5. we begin to see the formation of secondary ossification centers in the epiphyses
  6. growth plate has developed and interstitial growth occurs
  7. growth plate closes and the bone is no longer growing
48
Q

interstitial growth

A
  • this occurs in cartilage only
  • this increases length
  • chondrocytes divide and push each other apart, secrete matrix and move further from the origin
  • they are each synthesizing and secreting new cartilage
  • the cells become large and calcify and die off
  • osteoclasts will come up and clean up the dead areas and the osteoblasts will come in, secrete matrix, lay down bone and replace what once was cartilage
49
Q

where does interstitial occur

A
  • this occurs at the epiphyseal plate
50
Q

what is important to remember about development of cartilaginous growth

A
  • most cartilaginous growth (everything but at the epiphyseal plate) occurs in embryonic developments and happens before we enter the world
51
Q

steps of appositional cartilage growth

A
  • growth occurs along the periphery
    1. stem cells at the edge of the perichondrium divide
    2. results in new stem cells and chondroblasts positioned at the periphery of the original cartilage
    3. chondroblasts lay down matrix, separate, and become chondrocytes within lacunae
52
Q

appositional bone growth

A
  • growth occurs along the periphery
    1. osteoblasts lay bony matrix on the periphery, creating ridges
    2. ridges eventually meet and encapsulate a blood vessel
    3. bone deposition proceeds inward creating an osteon
    4. additional circumferential lamellae are deposited, increasing the bone diameter
53
Q

what are the functions of bone remodeling

A
  • maintain calcium and phosphate levels
  • responds to stress that is placed on it
  • this is constantly occuring and and we are in a constant state of laying down new bone and resorbing old bone*
54
Q

how does bone formation and bone resorption change throughout life

A
  • there is greater formation in children
  • balanced formation and resorbtion in young adulthood
  • greater resorption in older adults
55
Q

what does stress do to bone

A
  • it can cause it to remodel
  • bones are designed to be able to withstand stresses based on how they are anatomically designed
  • the compression and tension placed on bones are able to be shifted throughout and the use of spongy bone to withstand stresses and loads in multiple directions and redirect it toward other parts of the bone is important
56
Q

what are the effects of exercise for the skeleton

A
  • mechanical stress stimulates increase in bone density by increasing osteoblast activity
  • bones of athletes become thicker and stronger because of this
  • bones lose mass with age but this can be slowed or reversed with weight bearing exercise
57
Q

what do vitamines A and C do

A

these stimulate osteoblast activity

58
Q

what does vitamin D3 do

A

this promotes calcium and phosphate absorption into blood and assists with calcification

60
Q

osteomalacia

A

this is a vitamin d deficiency in an adult

61
Q
