HAAP LAB Practical Review Flashcards
In a long bone describe the structure and location of the Diaphysis
Is the shaft of a long bone
In a long bone describe the structure and location of the Epiphysis
Is the ends of a long bone
In a long bone describe the structure and location of the Articular Cartilage
Is at the end of each bone (reduces friction, eases joint movement).
In a long bone describe the structure and location of the Epiphyseal Plate/Line
Is where the bone growth occurs (Width determines growth)
In a long bone describe the structure and location of the Medullary Cavity
Is the hollow inside of diaphysis (Bone Marrow Location)
In a long bone describe the structure and location of the Compact Bone
The outside white portion of the bone
In a long bone describe the structure and location of the Spongy (Cancellous) Bone
Is on the inside of the epiphysis (Looks like bubbles)
In a long bone describe the structure and location of the Trabeculae
Are the bubbles of the spongy bone
Describe the structure Osteon
Is a structural unit of bone
Describe the structure osteocyte
Looks like black spider things, provides structural communication
Describe the structure Centeral Canal
Is in the middle of an Osteon
Describe the structure Perforating Canals
Connects the central canals in a perpendicular like fashion
Describe the structure Concentric Lamellae
Circles that make up the layers of the OsteonC
Describe the structure Circumferential Lamellae
Lines the outside of the bones circumference
Describe the structure Interstitial Lamellae
Are found between Osteons
