Lecture 4 Flashcards
Bones are enclosed by ____
Periosteum
Two types of tissue different anatomy
-Compact (organized, has tubular units called osteons, contains blood vessels)
-Spongy (unorganized, very strong, lighter than compact)
5 Bone Functions
Support, Protection, Blood Production, Storage, Movement
Osteons
Tubular unit of compact bone
Osteocytes
Bone cells
Lacunae
Tiny chambers that house osteocytes
Central/Haversion Canals
Contain blood/lymph vessels + nerves, surrounded by lacunae, found in within an osteon,
Canaliculi
Tiny canals that provide nutrients from blood vessels in central canal to cells in lacunae
Lamellae
Concentric circles, composes Haversion canals
3 types of cartilage
Hyaline, Fibrocartilage, Elastic
Hyaline Cartilage qualities
Firm, flexible, uniform organization, glassy appearance, contains collagen fibers
Fibercartilage
Stronger than hyaline, withstands tension/pressure, has wide rows of thick collagen fibers
Elastic Cartilage
More flexible than hyaline, presence of mostly elastin fibers, found in ear flaps/epiglottis
Human bones first appear during ____ as __________
Embryonic development, hyaline cartilage
Hyaline cartilage is replaced by bone over time via process called ____
Endochondral Ossification
