Dynamics Of Bone Growth Flashcards
Process by which bone forms, or by which tissue changes into the bone
Ossification
Loosely organized undifferentiated mostly mesodermal cells that give ries to such structures as connective tissues, blood, lymphatics, bone and cartilage
Mesenchymal cells
Cells responsible for the synthesis and mineralization of bone during both bone formation and bone remodeling
Osteoblasts
An unmineralized organic tissue secreted by osteoblasts that eventually undergo calcification and is deposited as lamellae or layers in the bone matrix
Osteoid
Cells in the cartilage that secrete extracellular matrix to form the cartilage model for bone
Chondrocytes
Two types of bone ossification
Intramembranous and endochondral ossification
This Ossification Involves the DIRECT conversion of mesenchyme to bone
Begins when the neural crest derived mesenchymal cells differentiate into specialized, bone-forming cells called osteoblasts
Intramembranous ossification
This process involves the replacement of hyaline cartilage with bone
Endochondral ossifcation
Primary ossification center forms in the diaphyseal region of the periosteum called the ___
Periosteal collar
Secondary ossification centers develop in the epiphyseal region after ___
Birth
Bones that are formed via intramembranous ossification
Flat bones of the face, cranial bones
Clavicles ( colarbone )
Bones that are formed via endochondral ossification
Long bones of the axial skeleton ( vertebrae, ribs ) and the appendicular skeleton (limbs)
