Inorganic matter 50% of dry weight of bone matrix. Calcium and phosphate much. The organic matter is composed of collagen type 1 and ground substance and structural glycoproteins, calcifications of this is very rare. Association between minerals and collagen fibers is responsible for the hardness of the bone. Decalcification results in tendon like bone.

A

The cylindrical part (growing between) almost compact bine with some spongy on the inside. Diploe and plates

83
Q

86
Q

Histogenesis

A

Bone can be formed in two way- direct mineralization of matrix or by deposition of bone matrix. In both processes the woven or primary tissue appears first. And then replaced by secondary bone.

87
Q

Intermembranous ossification

A

Direct mineralization of matrix secreted by osteoblasts

88
Q

Endochondral ossification

A

Deposition of bone matrix on a preexisting cartilage matrix

89
Q

Remodeling

A

The combination of bone synthesis and removal.

90
Q

Intramembranous ossification

A

Most of the flat bones- takes place within condesations (the process of becoming dense) of mesenchymal tissue. Thickening of long bones

91
Q

Primary ossification centre

A

The starting point of ossification. When groups of cells differentiate into osteblasts the calcification follows which then becomes osteocytes fontanelle are connective tissue which is not yet ossified. Cranial flat bones.

92
Q

A

Ossification within- takes place within hyaline cartilage whose shape is like the bine future form. This type is typicall for long and short bones

93

94
Q

A

A part of the 1st step of bone formation. Together with secondary ossification centers which appears as swelling in the diaphysis

95
Q

Articular cartialge

A

Remains in the two regions and part of the secondary ossification center. Persists in adults through life, but not for growth in length. Epiphyseal cartilage also called epiphyseal plate connects to epiphysis to the diaphysis. Bone growth in length is almost impossible when the epiphysis is closed. Epiphyseal cartilage is divided into five zones.

96
Q

Resting zone, 1

Consists of hyaline cartilage.

97

98
Q

Hypertrophic cartilige zone, 3

A

99
Q

Calcified cartilage zone, 4

A

Death og chondrocytes, the thin septa calcifies.

100
Q

Ossification zone, 5

A

Endochondral bone tissue appears. Nutrients like capillaries invades the cavities. Because the rates of the two opening events: proliferation and destruction - are approximaterly equal the epiphyseal plate does not change thickness. Instead it is displaced away from the middle of the diaphysis resulting in length growth.
