Chapter 15 Flashcards
bones
framework of body, inner core is hematopoietic tissue
joints
where bones come together
muscle
movement, internal like viscera, external like attached to bones
tendons
bind bone to muscle
ligaments
bind bone to bone
orthopedists
treat surgically bone joint and muscle conditions
rheumatologists
primarily joint problems
physiatrists
rehab after injury
osteopath
doctor that has added training in musculoskeletal system
osseous tissue
tissue that bones are made of, consists of osteocytes, collagen and calcium salts
cartilage
bones are composed of this during fetal development, lack of calcium salts
ossification
bone formation
osteoblasts
immature osetocytes
osteoclasts
reabsorb or digest bony tissue
bone remodeling
when osteoblasts come in and lay down mineral bone matter and osteoclasts come in and remove excess debris
calcium and phospherus
bone formation depends on
long bone
very strong, long
short bones
small with irregular shapes
flat bones
cover soft body parts
sesamoid bones
small rounded like sesame seeds, patella, near joints
epiphyseal plate
growth plate
epiphysis
at end of long bone
diaphysis
middle of long bone
articular cartilage
end end of long bone
cancellous bone
trabeculae, red bone marrow
medullary cavity
contain yellow bone marrow, fatty
bone processes
extend out from bones and serve as attachments
bond depression
openings or hollow regions in bone
sutures
cranial bone joints
fontanelles
gaps in unossified bone tissue at birth
formen magnum
opening in occipital bone through which spinal cord passes through
mastoid process
round process behind ear
styloid process
stake process from ear
spinous process
sticks straight out of vertebra
transverse process
on either side of vertebra
lamina
hold spinous process and transverse process together
