M5 - Cartilage and Bone Flashcards
Perichondrium
Dense layer of irregular CT, fibrous outer layer, resists outward pressure
Hyaline cartilage
Location - between tips of ribs and bones of sternum, covering bone surfaces @ synovial jts, supporting larynx, trachea, bronchi, nasal septum
Fxns - provides stiff but flexible support, reduces friction between bony surfaces
Fibrocartilage
Location - pads (menisci) within knee jt, between pubic bones of pelvis, intervertebral discs
Fxns - resists compression, prevents bone to bone contact, limits relative movement
Elastic cartilage
Locations - auricle of external ear, epiglottis, auditory canal, larynx
Fxn - support, distortion without damage, returns to og shape
Periosteum
Outermost layer
Osteogenic cells
Stem cells that grow and divide and differentiate
Endosteum
Innermost layer
Osteoblast
Build bone
Osteocyte
Maintain and regulate long term maintenance of bone
Osteoclast
Breakdown and reabsorb bone, help put calcium in bloodstream
Compact bone
Outer portion, dense, compact, made of osteons
Osteon
Fxnal unit of bone
Lacunae
House osteocytes
Canaliculi
Tiny canals that allow lacunae to connect and communicate w each other and to central canal
Spongy bone
Made of trabeculae, lots of open gaps
Bone functions
Support, movement, protection, mineral storage, hematopoiesis, energy metabolism
Long bone
Femur
Short bone
Cube, foot, hand
Flat
Sternum
Irregular
Vertebrae
Sesamoid
In line w tendon, CT
Pneumatized
Lots of air holes/gaps in it
Epiphysis
End of bone, lots of red bone marrow
Metaphysis
Middle, epiphyseal line (growth plate)
Epiphyseal line (growth plate)
Line of cartilage that allows long growth of bone
Diaphysis
Medullary cavity - yellow bone marrow
Bone anatomy
Articular cartilage (hyaline cartilage), compact bone on outside, spongy in inside, periosteum
Periosteum
Outer coating wrapping around bone w osteogenic cells
Major artery sets of bone
Nutrient, metaphyseal, epiphyseal, periosteal
Medullary cavity
In diaphysis, yellow marrow, energy reserve
Ossification
Osteogenesis, bone tissue formation
Intramembranous ossification
Bones formed directly from membrane of CT, flat bones = skull, mandible, some facial bones, scapula, clavicle
Endochondral ossification
Develop from hyaline cartilage, all bones except the ones formed in intramembranous
Intramembranous ossification (process)
- begins week 8
- differentiation of osteoblasts within mesenchyme
- secreted osteoid traps osteoblasts –> osteocytes, formation of trabecular matrix
- entrapment of blood vessels
- formation of spongy bone, compact bone on outside portions
Endochondral ossification process
- Model of hyaline cartilage week 8-12
- Osteoblasts form from bony collar
- artery penetrates into cartilage, first ossification center
- osteoblasts form medullary cavity
- secondary ossification center at epiphyseal ends
- leaves behind epiphyseal plate
Interstitial growth
Cartilage only, growth in middle = incr in length, chondrocytes within cartilage divide and secrete a new matrix
Appositional growth
Bone and cartilage, growth on surface = incr in diameter
