Ossification
47
Bone formation that occurs within connective tissue membranes is called _________________.
intramembranous ossification
48
Bone formation that occurs inside hyaline cartilage is called ______________________.
endochondral ossification
49
How does intramembranous ossification occur?
Intramembranous ossification occurs when osteoblasts begin to produce bone within connective tissue. Osteoblasts line up on the surface of connective tissue fibers and begin depositing bone matrix to form trabeculae.
50
Where the the intramembranous ossification happen?
Ossification centers
51
In this, the bone formation transpires within a cartilage model. The cartilage model is replaced by bone
endochondral ossification
52

Primary ossification center
53
This pertains to the bone formation in the epiphysis
Secondary ossification center
54
What is the steps in endochrondral ossification
1. Chondroblasts build a cartilage model, the chondroblasts become chondrocytes. 2. Cartilage model calcifies (hardens). 3. Osteoblasts invade calcified cartilage and a primary ossification center forms diaphysis. 4. Secondary ossification centers form epiphysis. 5. Original cartilage model is almost completely ossified and remaining cartilage is articular cartilage.
55
This is the process by which osteoblasts deposit new bone matrix on the surface of bones between the periosteum and the existing bone matrix, the bone increases in width, or diameter.
Appositional Growth
56
How does bone growth occur?
Bone growth occurs by the deposition of new bone lamellae onto existing bone or other connective tissue.
57
This is where growth occurs.
epiphyseal plate.
58
How does the bone grow in length?
Chondrocytes increase in number on the epiphyseal side of the epiphyseal plate. Then the chondrocytes enlarge and die à The cartilage matrix becomes calcified. The dying chondrocytes are replaced by osteoblasts. The osteoblasts start forming bone by depositing bone lamellae on the surface of the calcified cartilage.
59
This process pertains to the removal of existing bone by osteoclasts and deposition of new bone by osteoblasts. This occurs in all bones
Bone remodeling
60
How important is bone remodeling?
responsible for changes in bone shape, bone repair, adjustment of bone to stress, and calcium ion regulation
61
How does the bone repair happen?
1. Broken bone causes bleeding and a blood clot forms. 2. Callus forms which is a fibrous network between 2 fragments. 3. Cartilage model forms first then, osteoblasts enter the callus and form cancellous bone this continues for 4-6 weeks after injury. 4. Cancellous bone is slowly remodeled to form compact and cancellous bone.

68
How does bone homeostasis occur?
š Bone is a major storage site for calcium š Movement of calcium in and out of bone helps determine blood levels of calcium š Calcium moves into bone as osteoblasts build new bone š Calcium move out of bone as osteoclasts break down bone š Calcium homeostasis is maintained by parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcitonin
