CHAPTER 7 SKELETAL SYSTEM BONE STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION Flashcards
4 BASIC BONE FUNCTIONS
SUPPORT/PROTECTION, LEVERS FOR MOVEMENT, HEMATOPOIESIS, STORAGE OF MINERAL AND ENERGY RESERVES
HEMATOPOIESIS
BLOOD CELL PRODUCTION
IN WHICH PART OF THE BONE DOES HEMATOPOIESIS TAKE PLACE
RED BONE MARROW
MINERALS STORED IN BONE
CALCIUM, PHOSPHATE
COMPACT BONE MAKES UP ___ PERCENT OF BONE MASS
80
SPONGY BONE MAKES UP ___ PERCENT OF BONE MASS
20
TYPES OF CARTILAGE
HYALINE, FIBROCARTILAGE
HYALINE CARTILAGE
ATTACHES RIBS TO STERNUM, COVERS ENDS OF SOME BONES, MODEL FOR BONE FORMATION WITHIN GROWTH PLATES
FIBROCARTILAGE
WEIGHT BEARING. FOUND IN INTERVERTEBRAL DISCS, PUBIS SYMPHYSIS, MENISCI OF KNEE
LIGAMENT VS TENDON
LIGAMENT CONNECTS BONE TO BONE, TENDON CONNECTS MUSCLE TO BONE
4 CLASSES OF BONE BY SHAPE
LONG, SHORT, FLAT, IRREGULAR
DIAPHYSIS
ELONGATED, CYLINDRICAL PART OF BONE
MEDULLARY CAVITY
HOLLOW, CYLINDRICAL SPACE WITHIN DIAPHYSIS
EPIPHYSIS
KNOBBY REGION AT END OF EACH LONG BONE
ARTICULAR CARTILAGE
COVERS JOINT SURFACE. THIN LAYER OF HYALINE CARTILAGE WHICH REDUCES FRICTION AND ABSORBS SHOCK IN MOVEABLE JOINTS
METAPHYSIS
REGION WHERE BONE WIDENS AND TRANSFERS WEIGHT BETWEEN THE DIAPHYSIS AND EPIPHYSIS
EPIPHYSEAL PLATE
ALSO KNOWN AS GROWTH PLATE
EPIPHYSEAL LINE
REMNANT OF EPIPHYSEAL PLATES IN ADULTS
PERIOSTEUM
TOUGH SHEATH COVERING OUTER SURFACE OF BONE.
