articular cartilage
A
thin layer of hyaline cartilage covering the epiphysis
- reduces friction and absorbs shock in moveable joints
19

medullary cavity
A
hollow, cylindrical shape in diaphysis
- in a adults it contains yellow bone marrow
20
Q
endosteum
A
covers most internal surfaces of bones
- contains osteoprogenitor cells, osteoblasts and osteoclasts
21
Q
periosteum
A
- dense irregular connective tissue
- covers external surfaces of bones
acts as anchor for blood vessels and nerves - contains osteoprogenitor cells and osterblasts
22
Q
what are the cells of bones
A
osteoprogenitor cells, osteoblasts, ostecytes, and osteoclasts
23
Q
osteoprogenitor cells
A
mesenchymal stem cells found in endosteum and periosteum, can produce more stem cells or osteoblastsos
24
Q
osteoblasts
A
form bone matris
25
osteocytes
reside in lacunae, mainting matrix and detect mechanical stress on a bone
26
osteoclasts
large, multinuclear cells taht dissolve bone matrix releasing Ca2+
27
composition of the bone matrix
organic componentsL cells, collagen fibers, ground substance
inorganic components: minerals (calcium, phosphate, etc)
27
how much of the bone matrix is inorganic compounds
depends on the type of bone but most are 2/3 inorganic compounds
28
compact vs spongy bone
compact: solid and relatively dense, external surfaces of long and flat bones
spongy bone: open lattic of narrow plates called trabeculae, internal surface of bones
29
flat bones within the skull
two layers of compact bone with spongy bone sandwiched between
30
what is the basic structural and functional unit of mature compact bone
the osteon
31
what is the osten also known as
- a haversian system where a cetnral haversian canal is surrounded by concentric layers of lamella
- cylindrical structures run parallel to the diaphysis
32
microscopic anatomy parts of the compact bone
- central canal
- concentric lamellae
- osteocytes
- canaliculi
- perforating canals
- circumferential lamellae
- interstitial lamellae
33
microscopic anantomy of the spongy bone
no osteons
trabeculae contains parallel lamellae
34
what is located in the center of the osteon
blood vessels and nerves
35
central canal
- the center of the osteon
- carries blood vessels and nerves
36
concentric lamellae
rings of bone around the central canal
37
osteocytes
housed in lacunae between concentric lamellae
38
canaliculi
- tiny, interconnecting channels within bone that extend between lacunae
- allows osteocytes to connect and communicate transmitting info like how much stress
39
perforating canals
- run perpendicular to and help connect multiple central canals
- passageways for blood vessels and nerves
40
circumferential lamellae
- rings of bone immediately internal to the periosteum or internal to the endosteum
41
interstitial lamellae
leftover parts of osteons that have been partially resorbed
42
ossification
the process of forming and devloping bone
43
what are the two patterns of ossification
intramembranous ossification
endochondral ossification
44
intramembranous ossification steps
- ossification centers from within thickened regions of mesenchyme
- osteoid undergoes calcification
- woven bone and surrounding periosteum forms (condensed mesenchyme cells)
- lamellar bone replaces woven bone, as compact bone and spongy bone form
45
endochondral ossification steps
- the fetal hyaline cartilage model develops
- cartilage calcifies and a periosteal bone collar forms
- the primary ossification center from in the diaphysis
- secondary ossifcation centers form in the epiphysis
- bone replaces cartilage, except the articular cartilage and epiphyseal plate
- epiphyseal plate ossify and form epiphyseal lines
46
interstitial growth
- long bone growth in length
- occurs in the epiphyseal plate
47
appositional growth
- growth in a bone's diameter
- occurs in the periosteum and occurs by pushing the periosteum outwards creating a larger medullary cavity
48
what are the four major sets of blood vessels
nutrient artery and vein
metaphyseal arteries and veins
epiphyseal arteris and veins
periosteal arteries and veins
49
how do blood and nerves innervate the bones
through the nutrient foramen or other foramens
50
nutrient artery and vein
- supply the diaphysis of a long bone
- usually just one nutrient artery and vein per bone
51
metaphyseal arteries and veins
supply the diaphyseal side of the epiphyseal plate
52
epiphyseal arteries and veins
supply the epiphyses
53
periosteal arteries and veins
supply blood to the external circumferential lamellae and superficial osteon
54
what does bone growth, maintainence, and repair depend on
hormones
vitamins
exercise
55
effects of hormones
- hormones alter the rates of osteoblasts and osteoclast activity
- regulate calcium levels in the blood through calcitonin and parathyroid hormone
56
what does calcitonin do
deposits calcium from bloodstream to bone
57
what does PTH do
removes calcium from bones and brigns into the bloodstream (calcium resorption)
58
what are the effects of vitamins
needed for normal bone growth and maintenance
- activation of bone cells, synthesis of bone matrix, and absorption of necessary nutrients
59
what are the functions of Vitamin A
to activate osteoblasts
60
what are the functions of vitamin D
promotes absorption of calcium and phosphate into blood
- helps with calcification
61
effects of exercise
- mechanical stress stimulates an increase in bone density by increased osteoblast activity = stronger and thicker bones
62
what can slow or reverse loss of bone mass
weight bearing exercise
63
what are breaks in bones called
fractures
64
how long does healing take
a few months but could take longer depending on severity of break
65
what are the steps of fracture repair
- a fracture hematoma forms
- fibrocartilaginous (soft) callus forms
- bone (hard) callus forms
- bone is remodeled
66
what are the types of bone fractures
simple, compound, complete, linear, oblique,, spiral, transverse
67
simple fracture
bone does not break through the skin
68
compound fracture
broken ends of the bone protrude through the skin
69
complete fracture
bone is broken into two or more pieces
70
linear fracture
fracture is parallel to the long axis of the bone
71
oblique fracture
diagonal fracture at an angle between linear and transverse
72
spiral fracture
fracture spirals around the axis of long bone, results from twisting forces
73
transverse fracture
fracture at right angles to the long axis of the bone

89
cnaal
passageway through a bone
90
fissure
narrow, slitlike opening through a bone
91
foramen
rounded passageway through a bone
92
sinus
cavity or hollow space in a bone
93
what happens to the bone during the ageing process
- loses ability to produce organic matrix
- loses calcium and other minerals
94
osteoperosis
the decrease in bone mass
95
what is the value that is needed to deem someone as osteperotic
below 2.5 SD of the normal healthy adult bone density value
96
what is the value that is needed to diagnose someone with osteopenia
between 1.5-2.5 SD below the healthy bone density value in adults
97
what is a DEXA scan
a test used to measure bone mineral denity
98
types of osterorosis
Type 1 osteroporosis
Type II Osteoperosis
99
Type I osteroperosis
post menopausal osteoperosis
approx 40% of women over 50 are affected
100
Type II osteoperosis
age associated osteperosis
- after age of 60 90% of fractures due to osteoporosis
- men mainly affected at this age
