lesson 9 Flashcards
what are the theee main types of heterotopic bones?
myositis ossificans, traumatic myositis, neurogenic heterotopic ossification
what is the process of depositing calcium salts?
Calcification
what are the two main forms of ossification?
endochondral, intramembranous
when does epiphysis cartilage disappea?
after puberty when the long bone stops growing
then becomes visible in x-rays as the epiphyseal line
what happens as long bones mature
osteoclasts enlarge the medullary cavity
osteons form around blood vessels in compact bone
what bones does intramembranous ossification produce?
dermal bones such as mandible and clavicle
flat bones of the skull
what is a single pair of large blood vessels entering the diaphysis?
nutrient artery and vein
what supplies the epiphyseal cartilage where bone growth occurs?
metaphyseal vessels
what supplies blood to superficial osteons/ second ossification center?
periosteal vessels
what contains networks of lymphatic vessels and sensory nerves?
periosteum
what allows bones to adapt to stress from working out?
mineral recycling
so heavily stressed bones become thicker or thinner?
thicker and stronger
how much bone mass can be lost with just a few weeks of inactivity?
1/3
what is required for collagen synthesis and stimulation of osteoblast differentiation?
vitamin C
what stimulates osteoblast activity and is important in child bone growth?
vitamin a
