21
Q

Osteoblasts

A

Bone building cells
Synthesizes and secretes collagen fibers and other substances to build extracellular matrix

22
Q

Osteocytes

A

Mature bone cells
Maintain metabolism by exchanging nutrients and waste
No cell division

23
Q

Osteoclasts

A

Huge cell formed by fusion of many monocytes
Located in endosteum
Part of bone resorption

24
Q

Compact bone

A

Strongest form of bone tissue
Made up of Osteons
Protection, support and resisting stress of weight and movement

25
Q

Interstitial lamellae

A

Area between neighbouring osteons
Fragments of older osteons that were partially destroyed during bone building or remodelling

26
Q

Interrosteonice canal

A

Where blood vessels and nerves from periosteum penetrate compact bone
Connect medullary cavity, periosteum and central canal

27
Q

Circumferential lamellae

A

Lamellae arranged around outer and inner circumference of shaft of long bone

28
Q

External circumferential lamellae

A

Deep to periosteum
Connects periosteum and perforating fibers

29
Q

Internal circumferential lamellae

A

Circumferential lamellae that line medullary cavity

30
Q

Spongy bone tissue

A

Located in interior of bone and protected by layer of compact bone
Make up interior of short, flat, sesamoid and irregular shaped bones

31
Q

Trabecula

A

Lamellae arranged in irregular pattern of thin columns
Orient along stress lines

32
Q

Hemopoiesis in adults

A

Only places where red blood cells are produced in adults
Hips, ribs, sternum, vertebrae, proximal end of humerus, femur
=Sites where red bone marrow is stored

33
Q

Ossification

A

Process by which bone is made

34
Q

Initial bone formation in Embryo and Fetus

A

Embryonic skeleton composed of mesenchyme

35
Q

Intramembraneous ossification

A

Bone forms directly inside mesenchyme
Assembled in sheets and resembles membrane

36
Q

Endochondral ossification

A

Bone forms within hyalin cartilage and develops from mesenchyme

37
Q

Intramembranous Steps

A

Development of ossification centre
Calcification
Formation of trabeculae
Development of periosteum

38
Q

Steps of Endochondral Ossification

A

Development of cartilage model
Growth of cartilage model
Development of primary ossification center
Development of secondary ossification centre
Formation of articulation cartilage and Epiphyseal plate

39
Q

4 zones of Epiphyseal plate

A

Zone of resting cartilage
Zone of proliferation cartilage
Zone of hypertrophic cartilage
Zone of calcified cartilage

40
Q

Zone of resting cartilage

A

Layer closest to epiphysis
Cells do not function in bone growth, they anchor Epiphyseal plate to epiphysis

41
Q

Zone of proliferating cartilage

A

Chondrocytes arranged in stacks of coins
Undergo interstitial growth as they divide and secrete extracellular matrix

42
Q

Zone of hypertrophic cartilage

A

Consists of large, maturing chondrocytes arranged in columns

43
Q

Zone of calcified chondrocytes

A

Final zone
Mostly dead chondrocytes
Osteoblasts enter from area cleared by osteoclasts and lay down extracellular matrix and replacing calcified cartilage

44
Q

Remodelling of bone

A

Ongoing replacement of old bone tissue by new bone tissue

45
Q

A

Minerals
Vitamins
Hormones

47
Q

Insulin-like growth factor

A

Hormone in childhood
Stimulates osteoblasts, promotes cell division at Epiphyseal plate and in periosteum and enhances synthesis of proteins needed to build new bone

48
Q

A

T3 and T4
Promote growth by stimulating osteoblasts

49
Q

Insulin

A

Promotes growth by increasing synthesis of bone proteins

50
Q

A

Estrogen and androgens
Increase osteoblasts activity, synthesis of extracellular matrix
Shut down Epiphyseal plate

51
Q
