Hell aka bones Flashcards
Cells of perichondrium secrete matrix against external face of existing cartilage
Appositional growth
Cells of perichondrium secrete?
matrix against external face exsiting cartilage
Chondrocytes divide and secrete new matrix, expanding cartilage from within.
Interstitial growth
What is the skeletal cartilage surround by?
Perichondrium, Dense Irregular CT, Blood vessels
What are the three types of cartilage?
Hyaline, elastic, fibrocartilage
Which type of cartilage: Collagen fibers only, looks smooth and glossy?
Hyaline
Axial skeleton contains…?
skull, vertebral column and rib cage
Axial skeleton purpose?
protection, support
Appendicular skeleton contains..?
limbs and girdle
Appendicular skeleton purpose?
movement
4 types of bone?
long, short, flat, irregular
longer than wide
limb, wrist and ankle
long bones
cube shape- wrist and ankle
sesamoid bones
short bones
thin, flat and slightly curved- sternum, ribs, skull
flat bones
complicated shapes- vertebrae
irregular
Secreted by parafollicular cells of thyroid; inhibits osteoclasts (at pharmacological/high doses in humans)
calcitonin
secreted by parathyroid; stimulates osteoclasts (when Ca2+ is low)
Parathyroid hormone
: Secreted by osteoblasts (and high conc. is therefore a surrogate marker to indicate bone deposition/growth
Osteocalin
stimulates pancreatic beta cells to secrete insulin, and stimulates adipocytes to secrete adiponectin, which augments insulin sensitivity of cells.
Osteocalin
are bones organs?
yessssss
Bone textures; dense outer layer, smooth and solid
compact
Bone textures: aka cancellous or trabecular, sparse inner layer
spongy
outer or inner
periosteum
outer
outer or inner
endosteum
inner
What covers articular surfaces?
hyaline cartilage
Osteogenic layer contains?
osteogenic cells
Yellow marrow is
triglyceride (fat) storage
Red marrow is
Hematopoiesis
Where is red marrow found?
within the trabecular cavities of spongy bone and diploe of flat bones and irregular bones
Can yellow marrow change to red?
if necessary yas
Three types of bone growth?
Appositional, interstial and Calcification
