A

On the outside!

Tough membrane that covers the bone, but NOT the cartilage

  • tensile strength resists being stretched or torn
  • removes minerals with acid and rubbery structure results

Mineralization (calcification)
- hardening if Tissue when mineral crystals deposit around Collagen Fibers

50
Q

Cortical

- organizes into osteons

51
Q

A

Medullary Cavity

52
Q

Where’s the Diaphysis of the long bone located?

A

In the central region called the shaft!

In between the two ends of the bone (Epiphysis)

53
Q

What’s the purpose of the Epiphyseal Plate?

A

Arteries (Nutrient artery)
Veins
Lymphatic vessels
Nerves

55
Q

What are the four types of bones?

A

1) Long = compact
- humerus

2) Short = Spongy except surface
- Carpals/tarsals
2A)Sesamoid
Patella

3) Flat = plates of Compact enclosing Spongy
- Sternum, ribs, Cranial
3A) Wormian/Satural bones
In joints between skull bones

4) Irregular = variables
- Vertebrae

56
Q

What part of the long bone is the Articular Cartilage found? What’s its purpose?

A

At the ends over the joint surfaces of the Epiphysis.

Restricts friction and acts as a shock absorber

57
Q

What are the 4 types of cells in bone tissues?

A

Osteogenic - undifferentiated Cells

Osteoblasts- Forms Matrix and Collagen Fibers

Osteocytes - Mature Cells

Osteoclasts - Huge Cells (digests Matrix)

58
Q

What are the functions of the bone?

A

Supports and protects tissues

Attachment site for muscles making movement possible

Storage of the minerals calcium and phosphate and concentration under tight hormonal control
