Q

5 functions of the skeletal system

A

  • Produces blood cells & platelets
  • Movement produced by muscles attached to bones by tendons

46
Q

Bone remodeling

A

occurs continuously throughout the lifetime
process slows with age
the balance of bone breakdown and reconstruction ensures skeletal integrity

47
Q

Key Players in bone formation and remodeling

A
  • Osteocytes: mature bone cells
  • Osteoblasts: Bone forming/reconstructing cells (osteoblastic activity)
    Layered over the bone
    Deposit calcium into the matrix that is building up cortical bone
    Produce collagen and other proteins to synthesize the bone matrix
  • Osteoclasts: Cells that break down and reabsorb bone (osteoclastic activity)
    Imbedded in the bone matrix near the site of reabsorption
    Dissolve calcium first, then the organic matrix of the bone
48
Q

process of Bone Formation

A
  1. Bones begin as cartilaginous models (8 wks after conception)
  2. The periosteum forms around the models
  3. Osteoblasts synthesize the compact bone of the diaphysis
  4. Cartilage in diaphysis is transformed into cancelous bone as growth continues outward from the center
  5. Osteoclasts breakdown cancelous bone to form the medullary cavity
49
Q

What is bone formation?

A

The process by which our body continually destroys and rebuilds bone tissue throughout our lives.

50
Q

Wolf’s Law

A

Bones will grow or remodel in response to the forces or demands placed on them

51
Q

3 types of joints (articulations)

A

(classification is based on the presence or absence of a space called a joint cavity)

accessory ligaments are present

52
Q

Extrinsic ligaments- help to reinforce the joint

62
Q

Parts of the ribs

A

  • Intercostal Spaces (the spaces between the ribs)
  • True ribs (1-7), False ribs (8-10), floating ribs (11&12)
63

82
Q

Compound Fractures (4 types)

A

Comminuted Fracture, Spiral Fracture, Avulsion Fracture, Impacted Fracture

83
Q

Comminuted Fracture

A

The bone is broken into more than two fragments (highly unstable).

84
Q

Spiral Fracture

A

The bone has been broken due to a twisting type motion and looks like a corkscrew.
