Q

how are lacunae and canaliculi formed during intramembranous formation?

A

osteoblasts secrete osteoid which surround the osteoblast and their cytoplasmic processes.

Q

in what part of the shaft is the formation of primary center of ossification occuring?

A

diaphysis (center of the shaft)

20
Q

where does formation of secondary center of ossification occur?

A

epiphyses (and continues in the radial direction until only a thin rim of cartilage remains)

21
Q

what separates the epiphysis from the diaphysis?

A

the epiphyseal plate

22
Q

after bone has replaced cartilage, what two areas still contain cartilage?

A

the articular ends and the epiphyseal plate

23
Q

name the growth zones of the epiphyseal plate.

A

resting, proliferative, hypertrophy, calcification, retrogression, ossification (know these zones and how they grow)

24
Q

how do phosphatases affect lacunae?

A

they calcify the rims of lacunae, which leads to death of chondrocytes

25
what leads to closure of the epiphyseal plate?
when interstitial growth ceases
26
does bone usually continue to grow in thickness?
it remains faily constant but diameter of bone and marrow cavity continue due to osteogenic activity
27
what types of bone lack lamellae and have collagen arranged in irregular fashion?
immature, primary and woven bone
28
what type of bone have collagen fibers arranged parallel to each other?
mature, secondary and lamellar
29
what contain a neurovascular bundle in the osteon?
central haversian canal
30
what is an osteon?
structural unit of bone
31
don inner and outer circumferential lamellae contain a haversian system?
nope
32
what interconnects haversian canals and has the same contents as haversian canals?
volkmann canals
33
what is the purpose of the volkman canals?
pathway for blood vessels from periosteum and endosteum to enter the haversian canals
34
during bone remodeling what cell is responsible for the resorption of bone?
osteoclasts
35
what grooves are formed when osteoclasts begin to erode bone?
Howship's Lacunae
36
what is secreted to break down bone during osteolysis?
acid phosphatase and proteolytic enzymes
37
what step in fracture repair is there connective tissue (fibroblasts, blood, macrophages and fibers) filling the space
procallus
38
what is it called when connective tissue is replaced by hyaline cartilage?
temporary callus
39
what is it called when cartilage is replaced by immature bone?
callus
40
what replaces immature bone?
mature bone
41
what increases serum calcium by stimulating the formation of osteoclasts?
parathyroid hormone
42
what thyroid secretion lowers serum calcium by increasing osteoblastic activity?
calcitonin
43
what increases calcium and phosphate absorption in the intestines?
vitamin D
44
lack of vitamin D leads to what disease?
rickets and osteomalacea
45
what is important for production of collagen and necessary for proper bone formation?
vitamin C
46
what disease would you get from lack of vitamin C?
scurvy
47
why do we need growth hormone?
signals proper growth of epiphyseal plate
