gross anatomy
seeable w naked eye
periosteum
tough vascular membrane covering outside of living bone
endosteum
cellular membrane lining inside of living bone
medullary cavity
hollow space in long bones where yellow marrow is
compact/cortical bone
smooth and dense
external and lining medullary cavity
subchondral bone
under cartilage/joint
spongy/trabecullar/cancellous bone
- ident to cortical bone molecularly
- more porous
- inside bones
- provide lightweight support
osteoporosis
thinning of trabeculae that form spongy bone
diaphysis
primary centre of ossification
epiphysises
secondary centres of ossification
- made of subchondral bone
metaphysises
areas that widen to accommodate growing epiphysises
where is red marrow located?
in spongy bone
epiphyseal line
there epiphysis and metaphysis join
parietals
upper/side skull
temporals
side, just above ear
zygomatics
cheekbone
nasal conchae
inside skull in nose
palatines
back of upper palate
