Module 24 - Bone Tissue Flashcards
give the classification of bone tissue
Organization of collagen fibres within the bone matrix
Woven Bone
Randomly oriented collagen fibres (development and repair)
Remodeled
Lamellar Bone
Mature bone organized in sheets or layers (lamellae)
give the types of lamellar bone
spongy (or cancellous or trabecular) bone and compact (or cortical) bone
describe spongy bone
provides strength without extra mass, smooth outside because of compact bone
describe compact bone
what is trabeculae
connecting rods or plates in spongy bone
describe spongy bone
From distal to proximal, describe the compact/cortical bone
medullary cavity > spongy bone > compact bone > periosteum
list the different lamellae
interstitial, outer/inner circumferential, concentric lamellae
in compact bone, the blood goes through the…
perforating and central canals
what are the 2 components of the periosteum? describe them.
Inner Osteogenic Layer: Contains osteoblasts and osteoprogenitor cells; responsible for bone growth, repair, and remodeling; located close to the bone surface.
Outer Fibrous Layer: Made of dense, tough connective tissue; provides attachment for tendons and ligaments; protects the bone and connects it to surrounding structures.
differentiate outer and inner circumferential lamellae
Outer Circumferential Lamellae: Located around the outer perimeter of the bone, just beneath the periosteum; provide structural support to the entire bone.
Inner Circumferential Lamellae: Located near the inner surface of the bone, adjacent to the endosteum; support the inner cavity of the bone.
what is concentric lamellae
Concentric Lamellae: Circular layers surrounding each osteon (central canal); provide strength to resist twisting and bending.
what is interstitial lamellae
Interstitial Lamellae: Irregularly shaped layers filling spaces between osteons; remnants of old osteons broken down during bone remodeling.
central or haversian canals are ________ to long axis
parallel
what is lamellae
rings of calcified matrix
central canals are connected by _____ canals
perforating/Volkmann
