General Information Of Bone Flashcards
What is bone
The living bones in our bodies use oxygen and give off waste products in metabolism
What does bone contain
They contain active tissue that consume nutrients required blood supply and change shape or remodel in response to variations in mechanical stress
Movement has three elements what are they
Bone
Joint
Muscles
What is the active component of movement and passive component
Active is muscle
Passive is bone and joints
What is the function of the bone
Protect internal organs
Stores and release fat
Produces blood cells
Store and release minerals ( ca2+ within hydroxyapatite crystals
Movement are produced by the action of the muscle in the bone
Support the body
What is bone matrix
Is the intercellular substance of the bone that forms the most of the mass of the bone
What is the two material that bone matrix contains and explain
Organic: elasticity ( burning experiments) produced and secreted by osteoblasts
Inorganic: hardness, rigidity ( acid experimenter) most consists of calcium hydroxyapatite
(decalcification). (decomposition).
decalcification : A bone placed in a dilute acid solution loses its inorganic substances
decomposition : Since the organic part is damaged after the bone is burned, the bone crumbles with the slightest impact
What are the two basic structures of bone and explain
Compact bone Is the outer much denser layer of the bone which gives its smooth while and solid appearance
Spongy bone is the deep airy layer of the bone and it’s highly vascularizes and more metabolically active
What is Haversian canals
Which transmits small neurovaascular and iymphatic
Volkmanns canals
Transmit blood vessels from periosteum and connected by harizontal to Haversian
Trabecular network
Spongy is in trabecular network structure arranged in such way as to provide the bone s resistance to pressure and stretching
What are the two primary members that surround the bone tissue and explain
Periosteum is the thin fibro-collagenous layer of connective tissue that covers the outer surface of the bone in all place except at the joint
Endosteum: Lind the medullary cavity in long bones and covers the trabecular in spongy bones
Explain the outer fibrous and inner fibrous layer of periosteum
Outer: is composed mostly of collagen and contains nerve fibers that cause pain when the tissue is damaged
Innar: contains stem cells ( osteoprogenitor cells and osteoblasts) which responsible for bone growth and fractures healing
What does periosteum contain
Blood vessels, never & lymphatic vessels that nourish compact bone.
Tendons and ligaments also attach to bone at periosteum
