CH6 BONES Flashcards
• Contain no blood vessels or nerves
• Dense connective tissue girdle of perichondrium contains blood vessels for nutrient delivery to cartilage
SKELETAL
CARTILAGES
3
Types of Skeletal Cartilages
HEF
1. Hyaline cartilages
- Elastic cartilages
- Fibrocartilages
What Skeletal Cartilage
- Provides support, flexibility, and resilience
- Most abundant type
Hyaline cartilages
What Skeletal Cartilage
Is similar to hyaline cartilages, but contains elastic fibers
Elastic cartilages
What Skeletal Cartilage
Contaisn Collagen fibers & have great tensile strength
Fibrocartilages
• Cells secrete matrix against the external face of existing cartilage
• Appositional
during Growth of a Cartilage
• Chondrocytes divide and secrete new matrix, expanding cartilage from within
• Interstitial
• Calcification of cartilage occurs during?
- Normal bone growth
- Old age
Bones of the Skeleton
• Two main groups, by location
- Axial skeleton (brown)
- Appendicular skeleton (yellow)
How many
Classification of Bones by Shape
- Long bones
- Short bones
- Flat bones
- Irregular bones
LIFS
Bones by Shape
• Long bones
• Longer than they are wide
Bones by Shape
• Short bones
• Cube-shaped bones
(in wrist and ankle)
• Sesamoid bones
(within tendons, e.g., patella)
Bones by Shape
• Flat bones
Thin, flat, slightly curved
Bones by Shape
• Irregular bones
• Complicated shapes
Functions of Bones
- Support
- Protection
- Movement
- Storage
- Minerals (calcium and phosphorus salts) and growth factors
- Blood cell formation (hematopoiesis) in marrow cavities(RED Marrow)
- Triglyceride (energy) storage in bone cavities(YELLOW Marrow)
Bone Markings
• Bulges, depressions, and holes serve as?
- Sites of attachment for muscles, ligaments, and tendons
- Joint surfaces
- Conduits for blood vessels and nerves
Bone Markings:
Projections
• Sites of muscle and ligament attachment?
- Tuberosity—rounded projection
- Crest—narrow, prominent ridge
- Trochanter—large, blunt, irregular surface
- Line—narrow ridge of bone
- Tubercle—small rounded projection
- Epicondyle—raised area above a condyle
- Spine—sharp, slender projection
- Process—any bony prominence
SPECTTTL
Bone Markings:
• Projections that help to form joints
• Head
Bony expansion carried on a narrow neck
• Facet Smooth, nearly flat articular surface
• Condyle
Rounded articular projection
• Ramus
Armlike bar
Bone Markings:
What are the Depressions and Openings
• Meatus
Canal-like passageway
• Sinus
Cavity within a bone
• Fossa
Shallow, basinlike depression
• Groove
Furrow
• Fissure
Narrow, slitlike opening
• Foramen
Round or oval opening through a bone
Bone Textures
of Compact bone?
• Dense outer layer
Bone Texture
of Spongy (cancellous) bone?
• Honeycomb of trabeculae
What are the Structure of a Long Bone?
- Diaphysis (shaft)
- Epiphyses
Structure of a Long Bone
• Diaphysis (shaft)
- Compact bone collar surrounds medullary (marrow) cavity
- Medullary cavity in adults contains fat (yellow marrow)
Structure of a Long Bone
• Epiphyses
- Expanded ends
- Spongy bone interior
- Epiphyseal line (remnant of growth plate)
- Articular (hyaline) cartilage on joint surfaces
What are the Membranes of Bones?
- Periosteum
- Endosteum
Describe Membrane Periosteum of a bone?
• Outer fibrous layer
• Inner osteogenic layer
Osteoblasts (bone-forming cells)
Osteoclasts (bone-destroying cells)
Osteogenic cells (stem cells)
- Nerve fibers, nutrient blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels enter the bone via nutrient foramina
- Secured to underlying bone by Sharpey’s fibers
Describe Membranes
Endosteum?
- Delicate membrane on internal surfaces of bone
- Also contains osteoblasts and osteoclasts
covers compact bone on the outside
• Periosteum
covers spongy bone within
• Endosteum
called diploë in flat bones
• Spongy bone
What is between the trabeculae?
• Bone marrow
Location of Hematopoietic Tissue (Red Marrow)
Adults
- Trabecular cavities of the heads of the femur and humerus
- Trabecular cavities of the diploë of flat bones
Location of Hematopoietic Tissue (Red Marrow)
Newborn Infants?
• Medullary cavities and all spaces in spongy bone
What are the Cells of bones?
- Osteogenic (osteoprogenitor) cells
- Osteoblasts
- Osteocytes
- Osteoclasts
• Stem cells in periosteum and endosteum that give rise to osteoblasts
• Osteogenic (osteoprogenitor) cells
