OF BONES PRESENT AT ADULTHOOD
206 (W/VARIATION)** SESMOID BONES, WORMIAN BONES, SACRAL BONES
WHERE ARE RBCs MADE IN ADULTS VS. INFANTS?
ADULTS = BONE MARROW INFANTS = LIVER
HISTOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION OF BONE
COMPACT (CORTICAL) BONE VS. SPONGY (CANCELLOUS) BONE
COMPACT (CORTICAL) BONE
HARD, DENSE CORTEX
~80% OF ALL BONES IN THE BODY
FORMED BY ENDOCHONDRAL OSSIFICATION
FUNCTIONAL UNIT = OSTEON
FUNCTIONAL UNIT OF COMPACT BONE
OSTEON (FORMED BY LAMELLA) (SPACE IN BETWEEN LAMELLA = LACUNA)
SPONGY (CANCELLOUS) BONE
FORMED BY INTRAMEMBRANOUS OSSIFICATION
HIGH SURFACE AREA TO MASS RATIO
FUNCTIONAL UNIT = TRABECULA
FUNCTIONAL UNIT OF SPONGY BONE
TRABECULA (SPACE IN BETWEEN TRABECULA = RED BONE MARROW)
CONTAINS OSTEOBLASTS AND OSTEOCLASTS
SHAPE CLASSIFICATION OF BONE
- ) LONG BONE
- ) SHORT BONE
- ) FLAT BONE
- ) SESAMOID BONE
- ) IRREGULAR BONE
LONG BONE
LONGER THAN THEY ARE WIDE
CONTAIN EPIPHYSES (ENDS) AND DIAPHYSES (SHAFT)
PRIMARILY COMPACT BONE
EX. HUMERUS, FEMUR, TARSALS, METACARPALS
SHORT BONE
WIDER THAN THEY ARE LONG
PRIMARILY CANCELLOUS BONE SURROUNDED BY A THIN LAYER OF COMPACT BONE (LARGE AMOUNT OF BONE MARROW)
NO EPIPHYSES/DIAPHYSES
EX. CARPALS
FLAT BONE
SERVE AS MUSCLE ATTACHMENT SITES AND PROTECT VITAL ORGANS
STRONG CURVED PLATES OF BONE
FORM THE HIGHEST CONCENTRATION OF RBCS
EX. SCAPULA, STERNUM, CRANIUM
IRREGULAR BONES
DON’T FIT INTO ANY OTHER CATEGORY
EX. VERTEBRAE, MANDIBLE, SACRAM
SESAMOID BONES
DERIVED W/IN TENDONS
EX. PATELLA, PISIFORM
PERIOSTEUM
ATTACHED TO BONE VIA SHARPEY’S FIBERS
CONTAINS OSTEOBLASTS
