Chapter 6 pt 1) Bones and Skeletal Tissues Flashcards
Skeletal Cartlidge
- Made of any variety of cartlidge and is shaped to fit body location and function. (EX at the ends of bones)
- Will spring back to original shape after compression
Perichondrium
-Layer of dense connective tissue surrounding cartilage. Helps cartilage resist outward expansion and get nutrients (via diffusion)
-Hyaline cartilage
- Found as Articular (joints), Costal (Ribs), Respiratory (Larynx), and Nasal Cartilage (nose tip)
Elastic Cartlidge
-Found in External Ear and Epiglottis
Fibrocartilage
-Found in Meniscui (of knee) and Vertebreal discs
Cartlidge Growth (2 Ways)
- Appositional Growth) Pericondrium contains cartlidge making cells which secrete new matrix on the old cells. New matrix laid down on the surface.
- Intersitital Growth) Condroctyes divide within lacuane and secrete matrix. New matrix made within cartlidge.
Seven Functions of Bones
- Support) Body and Soft organs.
- Protection) Skull protects brain, spine protects spinal chord, ribs protect thoracid organs.
- Anchorage) for skeletal muscles
- Mineral Growth Factor Storage) Stores minerals such as phospate and calcium to release into the blood stream
- Blood cell formation) Hematopoiesis
- Triglyceride (fat) storage) for energy
- Horomone production) of osteocalcin which is involved in horomone regulation.
Classification of Bones (location)
- Axiel Skeleton) bones of skull, vertebral collum, and rib cage
- Appendicular Skeleton) bones of the limbs and gurdles (joints) attaching limbs to the body
Shapes of Bones
- Long Bones) Longer than they are wide (limb bones)
- Short bones) cube shaped bones (in Wrist and ankle)
- Sesmoid Bones) type of short bone, considered a “floating bone”
- Flat Bones) Thin, Flat, Slightly Curved. (sternum, scapule, rib, skull bones)
- Irregular Bones) Complicated Shapes (Vertebrae, Hip Bones).
Compact and Spongy Bone
- Compact Bone) Dense Outer layer of every bone. Looks smooth and solid.
- Spongy Bone) Inside of bone made of a honeycomb of small pieces of flat bones called trabeculae. (Open spaces betewwn trabeculae are filled with bone marrow)
Structure of Short, Flat, and Irregular Bones
- Thin plates of Spongy bone covered by Compact bone
- Compact bone is between two membranes called the periosteum and endosteum.
- Have No shaft or ends. Bone marrow is scattered in the trabeculae.
Structure of Long Bones
All have a shaft (diaphysis), bone ends (epiphyesis) and Membranes.
- Diaphysis) Tublar shaft of bone. Consists of compact bone surrounding the medullary cavity (filled with yellow bone marrow in adults)
- Epiphyses (singular is epiphysis) ends of long bones. Consist of compact bone externally and spongy bone internally.
- Epiphyseal Line) remenant of epiphyseal plate which is the site of bone growth in children.
Periosteum
Fibrous Membrane that covers External bone surfaces except for joints (cartlidge)
- Contains nerve fibers/ blood vessels in shafts called nutrient formens.
- Provides anchoring points for tendons/ ligaments.
Two Layers
- Ostogenic (inner) layer) next to bone surface. Contains ostoprogenitor (stem) cells which give rise to most bone cells.
- Fibrous (outer) layer) Made of dense irregular connective tissue (collegen) and perforating (sharpy’s) fibers that secure periostium to the bone matrix.
Endosteum
Connective Tissue Lining of internal bone surface
- Covers trabecule
- Lines canals through the bone
- Contains osteoprognitor cells.
Hematopietic Tissue (bone marrow)
- Red Marrow) found in diffrent locations in infants (all bones) and adults
- In adults Red marrow can be found in the heads of the femur/ humerus, but the most active areas of hematopoeisis occur in the spongy area of flat bones and some irregular bones.
Bone Markings
Sites of muscle, ligament, and tendon attachemnt. Also for joint formation or conduidts for blood vessels and nerves
- Projection) outward buldge of the bone.
- Depression) bowl or groove. can serve as passagways or for joints
- Opening) hole or canal bone that serves as a passage.
Tuberosity
- Large, Rounded projection. May be rough
- Site of muscle or ligament attachment.
Crest
- Narrow Ridge of Bone, usually prominent
- Site of muscle or ligament attachment.
Trochanter
- only found on the femer. Large, Blunt, Irrgular, attachment site
- Site of muscle or ligament attachment.
Line
- Narrow ride of bone that is less prominent than a crest
- Site of muscle or ligament attachment.
Tubercule
- Small, ROUNDED (tube) projection or process.
- Site of muscle or ligament attachment.
Epicondyle
- Raised area above a condile (round end of bones).
- Site of muscle or ligament attachment.
Spine
- Slim, Slender, often pointed projection
- Site of muscle or ligament attachment.
Process
- Any bony prominence.
Head (bone surface)
- Bony Extension on a narrow neck
- Helps form a joint
Facet
- Smooth, nearly flat atricular (joint) surface.
- Helps form a joint
Condyle
- Rounded Articular projection
- Helps form a joint.
Groove (bone marking)
- Furrow in the bone
- For passage of blood vessels and nerves
Fissure
- Narrow slit like opening
- For passage of blood vessels and nerves
Notch
- Indentation at edge of a structure
- For passage of blood vessels and nerves
Meatus
- Canal like passagway
- Classified as “other” bone marking
Sinus
- Cavity within bone that is filled with air and lined with a mucas membrane
- Classified as “other” bone marking
Fossa
- Shallow, depression like marking. Often serves as an articualar surface.
- Classified as “other” bone marking
Osteoprogenitior Cells
- Mititocally active cells in periostium and ensosteum
- Differienienate into ostoeoblasts or vone lining cells
Osteoblasts
- Bone forming ells that secrete bone matrix called osteoid
- Osteoid is made of collagen and calcium binding protiens
- 90% of bone protien is Collagen
- Activly mititic
- When surrounded by the matrix they secrete they become otseocytes
Osteocytes
- Mature bone cells in lacune that don’t devide
- Mantain bone matirx and act as stress/stain responders
- Respond to mechanical stimus
- Communicate infmation to osteoblasts/clasts so bone remodiling can occur
Bone Lining Cells
- Flat cells on bons surface. Mantain the matrix
- Periosteal cells) external bone surface
- Endosteal cells) Internal surfaces.
Osteoclasts
- Funtion in the Breakdown of bown.
- Derived from the same stem cells that become macrophages
- Giant, multinucliate cells that funtion in bone breakdown.
Osteon
- Structural unit of compact bone. Shaped like cylinders
- Consists of several rings called Lamelle.
- Withstand Stress because of collagen fibers.
Canals and Caniculi
- Central Canal) Runs through nerve of osteon. contains nerve and blood vessels
- Perforating (Volksman’s) Canals) Lined with endosteum. At right angles next to central canal.
- Lacune) small cavities that contain osteocytes
- Caniculai) Hailike canals that connect lacune,
Interstital Lamellae
- Lamalle that are not part of the osteon
- Fill gaps between osteons or where osteons were cut during bone remodeling.
Circumferential Lamellae
- Deep to periosteum but superior to endosteum. Extend around the surface of the diaphysis
- Helps bone resist twisting force.
Organic Componants of Bone
- Includes ostogenic cells, osteocytes and blasts, bone-lining cells, osteoclasts and osteoid.
- Osteoid) Matrix of bone, made of collagen and ground substance.
Inorganic Compeants
- Hydroxyapatites (mineral Salts) make up 65% of bone mass.
- Mostly Calcium phospate in crystalized form.
