22
Q

Describe compact bone and the cells/structures found inside it

A

Opaque
Arranged in microscopic cylinders (osteons)
- surround central canals (blood vessels, nerves)
- run longitudinally through shaft
Lamellae
- concentric layers of deposited bone matrix (tree rings/onion slice)
Osteocytes
- occupy cavities (lacunae) between lamellae

23
Q

What is the difference in circumferential lamellae and insterstitial lamellae? What type of bone is it found in?

A

Circumferential lamellae - outer surface of compact bone

Interstitial lamellae - fill irregular regions between osteons (remnants of remolded lamellae)

24
Q

What makes up spongy bone?

A

trabecular (thin plates) and spicules (rods/spines)

25
Q

What does compact bone have that spongy bone lacks?

A

Osteons/central canals

26
Q

What is the purpose of spongy bone?

A

Provides strength while adding minimum weight (oriented along stress lines)

27
Q

What are the two main types of bone marrow?

A 
Red marrow (Myeloid tissue)
Yellow marrow
28
Q

What is the purpose of red marrow and where is it found/ who is it found in?

A

Hemopoietic tissue (produces blood cells)
Found in almost every bone of the child
Found in the skull, vertebrae, ribs, sternum, part of pelvic girdle, and proximal head of humerus and femur

29
Q

What is the purpose of yellow marrow and where is it found/who is it found in?

A

Fatty marrow, does not produce blood

Found in adults

30
Q

What are the 3 types of cartilage?

A
  1. hyaline cartilage (lines synovial joints)
  2. elastic cartilage (ears, nose, etc)
    - hyaline and elastic cartilage are surrounded by perichondrium (fibrous dense irregular CT)
  3. fibrocartilage (discs in your back)
31
Q

What are the general functions of cartilage?

A

Support, frameworks and attachments
Protection
Structural models for developing bones

32
Q

What types of cells make up cartilage?

A

Chondroblasts - cartilage builders (secrete matrix)

Chondrocytes - mature chondroblasts (trapped in lacunae)

33
Q

How does nutrition and waste get to cartilage?

A

Must diffuse through matrix - no blood vessels

34
Q

What is the mesenchyme?

A

Embryonic CT

Scaffolding for bone, muscle, blood and others (starting point)

35
Q

What are the two ways to form bone?

A
  1. Intramembraneous

2. Endochondral

36
Q

What types of bones are formed via intramembraneous ossification?

A

Flat bones (skull, clavicle, mandible)

37
Q

What is the purpose of intramembraneous ossification in already grown bones?

A

Thickening, strengthening, and remodeling

38
Q

What are the soft spots on the head called?

A

Fontanels

39
Q

What is the center of ossification?

A

Where expansion via intramembranous ossification occurs

40
Q

What types of bone are formed in endochondral ossification?

A

Most bones other than flat bones (vertebra, ribs, pelvic bones, limbs, parts of skull

41
Q

In which type of bone formation does bone develop from a preexisting model?

A

Endochondral ossifcation

42
Q

During the first step of endochondral ossification, mesenchyme is turned into hyaline cartilage. What covers this cartilage? What types of cells are involved?

A

Covered by perichondrium

Chondroblasts –> Condrocytes

43
Q

During the second step of endochondral ossification, a primary ossification center is starting to form. What is the job of chondrocytes?

A

They inflate (hypertrophy) and absorb the matrix. Then they release matrix vesicles which initiate formation of hydroxyapatite crystals (calcified cartilage) and then they die. This forms calcified walls/big lacunae

44
Q

During the second step of endochondral ossification, a primary ossification center is starting to form. At the same time, bony collar formation begins. Describe what is happening with this.

A

Blood vessels reach the perichondrium. Osteoblasts are formed to start producing bone (and the periosteum). Osteoblasts deposit a layer of bone around the middle of calcified cartilage, forming a “bony collar”

45
Q

During the third step of endochondral ossification, a primary ossification center is forming. What do the blood vessels do? What is the job of chondrocytes? What is formed in the diaphysis?

A

Blood vessels invade and deliver to the osteoblasts and osteoclasts.
The osteoclasts do work, hollow out the primary marrow cavity and the blood vessels follow.
Osteoblasts line the cavity with bone.
Chondrocytes hypertrophy and die in both directions
A medullary cavity is formed int he diaphysis

46
Q

During the fourth step of endochondral ossification, a secondary ossification center is formed. How and where does this occur? What type of bone fills the epiphysis?

A

It’s formed int he epiphysis (ends of bones)
Development occurs at the end of bones. No medullary cavity is present. The metaphysic is a transitional size between the diaphysis and epiphysis
The epiphysis is filled with spongy bone

47
Q

During the fifth step of endochondral ossification, the cavities are separated by the epiphyseal plate. What are the two cavities and how/why are they separated?

A

The epiphysis and the diaphysis are the cavities.
They are separated by a middle layer of hyaline cartilage that acts as a growth zone. The cartilage is transformed into bone. This zone is active throughout childhood and adolescence

48
Q

During the sixth and last step of endochondral ossification, adults attain their maximum height and stop growing. What is happening internally?

A

The reserve cartilage in the epiphyseal plate is depleted

49
Q

Where do bones elongate at and how?

A

The epiphyseal plate.
Cartilage is turned to bone.
Hyaline cartilage is in the middle with transition zones on each size.

50
Q

What is interstitial growth?

A

Growth from within. Cartilage grown within the epiphyseal plate

51
Q

What are the 5 zones that exists during bone elongation?

A

(zone one is nearer to the end of the bone, zone five nearer the center)

  1. Zone of reserve cartilage (hyaline cartilage)
  2. Zone of cell proliferation (chondrocytes multiply)
  3. Zone of cell hypertrophy (mitosis stops, chondrocytes enlarge)
  4. Zone of calcification (cartilage matrix calcifies
  5. Zone of Bone Deposition (via osteoblasts)
52
Q

Does bone prefer to grow inwards or outwards?

A

Outwards

53
Q

What is Wolff’s Law of Bone?

A

Architecture of bone is determined by mechanical stressed placed on it

54
Q

What cells are involved in bone remodeling?

A

Osteoblasts - deposit new osseous tissue (heavy use/stress)

Osteoclasts - remove bone (unnecessary mass)
