Lecture 4: Introduction to GENERAL osteology Flashcards
What are the 3 main types of bone cells and explain their purpose
1) Osteoblast: (building/immature bone cell)
2) Osteocyte: (fully mature/functional bone cell=does the “maintenance”
3) Osteoclast: breakdown of bone (destroy harmful cells, release minerals from bone, make room for new bone cells)
What are the 7 main features of long bones?
Diaphysis: shaft
Epiphysis: proximal and distal ends
Metaphyses: contains epipheseal plate (which is originally cartilage which allows it to grow but eventally calcifies into a plate)
Articular Cartilage: Around the edges that articulate
Periosteum: Covers the outside of bone (except where articular cartilage is)
Medular cavity: Hollow to make bones lighter and to make room for cells
Endosteum”: lines medular cavity
