Chapter 6 Bones And Skeletal Tissues

Question 1

Hyaline Cartilage

Answer 1

provides support, flexibility and reduces friction

Question 2

Hyaline Cartilage locations

Answer 2

Nose, Trachea, Larynx and at the ends of long bones

Question 3

Fibrocartilage

Answer 3

tough and acts as a shock absorber

Question 4

Fibrocartilage location

Answer 4

intervertebral discs and pubic symphysis

Question 5

Elastic Cartilage

Answer 5

Elastic and maintains shape while allowing flexibility

Question 6

Elastic cartilage location

Answer 6

external ear and epiglottis

Question 7

Cartilage Growth

Answer 7

primarily through interstitial and appositional growth

Question 8

interstitial growth

Answer 8

chondrocytes within cartilage matrix divide and produce new matrix

Question 9

Appositional Growth

Answer 9

involves the addition of new cartilage tissue. where chondroblasts in the surrounding perichondrium lay down new matrix

Question 10

Bony skeleton

Answer 10

Provide structural support, protection for vital organs, facilitates movement, serves as mineral reservoir

Question 11

Bone Tissue

Answer 11

provides rigidity, support, and protection for internal organs. Plays crucial role in mineral storage

Question 12

osteoblasts

Answer 12

build bone tissue by secreting matrix components
(immature)

Question 13

Osteocytes

Answer 13

mature bone cells embedded in the matrix, involved in maintenance and repair

Question 14

Osteoclasts

Answer 14

responsible for bone resorption, breaking down bone tissue

Question 15

Long Bone (e.g femur)

Answer 15

Has a shaft (diaphysis) and two ends (epiphysis)

Question 16

Long bone contains

Answer 16

medullary cavity, periosteum and endosteum

Question 17

Flat Bone (e.g Scapula)

Answer 17

consists of two compact bone layers with spongy bone in between (sandwich)

Question 18

Flat bone contains

Answer 18

external and internal surfaces, periosteum, and endosteum

Question 19

Compact Bone

Answer 19

dense and forms the outer layer of bones

Question 20

Compact bone composed of

Answer 20

osteons (Haversian system) containing concentric lamellae

Question 21

Spongy Bone

Answer 21

Less dense and found in interior of bones

Question 22

Spongy bones composed of

Answer 22

trabeculae with spaces filled with red bone marrow

Question 23

Intramembranous ossification occurs in

Answer 23

flat bones

Question 24

intramembranous ossification develop

Answer 24

bone develops from mesenchymal tissue directly, without a cartilage intermediate

Question 25

Endochondral Ossification occurs in

Answer 25

long bones

Question 26

Endochondral ossification develop

Answer 26

bone forms by replacing a hyaline cartilage model

Question 27

Epiphysial Plates

Answer 27

found in growing bones and are made of cartilage

Question 28

Ephiphyseal lines

Answer 28

remnants of the epiphyseal plates once growth is complete. They are lines of compact bone
