Q

how does the skeletal system protect the body

A

bones are hard and protect the organs they surround
skull/brain
vertebrae/spinal cord
rib cage/heart, lungs etc

17
Q

how does the skeletal system support movement of the body?

A

muscles attach to bones by tendons

cntx of skeletal muscle moves the bones

18
Q

what are tendons?

A

bands of FCT that attach muscle to bone

19
Q

what does the skeletal system store?

A

Ca++, P, some adipose tissue

20
Q

how does the skeletal system support blood cell production?

A

long bone cavities are filled with red bone marrow which makes blood cells and platelets

21
Q

what are the 3 types of cartilage?

A

hyaline, fibrocartilage, elastic

22
Q

cartilage is made of

A

matrix and cells

23
Q

what are the cells of cartilage?

A

chondroblasts

chondrocytes

24
Q

what are chondroblasts and where are they?

A

they make new matrix

in areas of growth, repair and development

25
Q

what are chondrocytes and where are they?

A

mature chondroblasts
support the matrix
lie in the lacuna in established, mature cartilage

26
Q

what is the matrix of cartilage made of?

A

proteoglycans
collagen
protein fibers

27
Q

what is the perichondrium

A

surrounds cartilage

made of DFCT

28
Q

what are the 2 layers of the perichondrium made of?

A

outer layer, irregular DFCT

inner layer of chondroblasts

29
Q

what is different about articular cartilage?

A

no perichondrium

30
Q

what is appositional chondral growth?

A

growth by adding to the surface by chondroblasts in the perichondrium

31
Q

what is interstitial growth

A

chondrocytes in the matrix can divide and add matrix between cells
