112
Q

What are active processes?

A

requires cellular energy. to move a substance against a gradient
Na+, K+, H+
- Sodium potassium pump: 3 Na+ out, 2 K+ in, pumps from low concentration to high concentration
- vesicular (spherical sac) transport - endocytosis or exocytosis

113
Q

What are the 4 types of tissue?

A

epithelial, connective, muscular and nervous

114
Q

What is epithelial tissue?

A

covers body surfaces, organs, ducts
forms glands
avascular

115
Q

What is connective tissue?

A

protects and supports the body
immediately adjacent to epithelial tissue
has a blood supply that diffuses to epithelial tissue

116
Q

What is muscular tissue?

A

cells specialized for contractions (movement)
generates heat

117
Q

What is nervous tissue?

A

detects a stimulus and then sends signal for movement

118
Q

What are the functions of connective tissue?

A
  1. binds together, supports and strengthens other tissues
  2. protects and insulates internal organs
  3. stores fat (energy)
  4. main source of immune responses
  5. serves as the main transport system within the body
119
Q

What are the classifications of connective tissue?

A

embryonic - developing
Mature
- loose connective tissue
- dense connective tissue
- cartilage
- bone tissue
- liquid connective tissue

120
Q

What are examples of loos connective tissue?

A

adipose tissue

121
Q

What are examples of deep connective tissue?

A

forms tendons, ligaments and aponeuroses

122
Q

What are examples of cartilage?

A

hyaline, fibrocartilage and elastic

123
Q

What are examples of bone tissue?

A

cortical and trabecular

124
Q

What are examples of liquid connective tissue?

A

blood and lymph

125
Q

What are tendons?

A
  • fibers run parallel along the tendon
  • joins muscle to bone
  • achilles and quadriceps
  • overstretch = strain
126
Q

What are ligaments?

A
  • fibers crisscross (resembles rope)
  • connects bone to bone
  • ACL - anterior cruciate ligament
  • overstretch = sprain
127
Q

What are aponeuroses?

A
  • sheetlike tendon
  • connects muscle to muscle OR muscle to bone
128
Q

What is cartilage?

A
  • can endure considerably more stress than loose or dense tissue
  • no nerves or blood vessels
  • heals poorly following injury
129
Q

What is hyaline cartilage?

A
  • most abundant in the body: Long bones, anterior ends of ribs, nose, trachea, fetal skeleton
  • provides smooth surface at joints
  • weakest type - can be fractured
130
Q

What is fibrocartilage?

A
  • strongest type: pubic symphysis, intervertebral discs, menisci, labrum
  • this is the cartilage broken down with osteoarthritis
131
Q

What is elastic cartilage?

A

epiglottis, ear and Eustachian tube

132
Q

What are the functions of the skeletal system?

A
  1. support
  2. protection
  3. assistance in movement
  4. mineral homeostasis (stores phosphorus and 99% of the body’s calcium)
  5. blood cell production (hemopoiesis and red bone marrow)
  6. triglyceride storage (yellow bone marrow)
133
Q

What is hemopoiesis?

A

majority of the blood cells are formed from the bone marrow
- Thymus, spleen and liver can also produce blood cells

134
Q

What are the two types of bone marrow?

A

red bone marrow
yellow bone marrow

135
Q

What is red bone marrow?

A
  • produces red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets
  • flat bones (ilia of pelvis, skull, sternum, scapula, ribs) vertebrae (irregular) and trabecular bone of proximal femur and proximal humerus
136
Q

What is yellow bone marrow?

A
  • stores fat
  • in spaces of trabecular bone (other than proximal femur and proximal humerus)
  • in medullary cavity of long bones
137
Q

What are the 4 types of bone cells?

A
  1. osteoprogenitor cells

  • most bones of the body are developed this way
  • method by which bones increase in length
  • method by which fractures are repaired
164
Q

what are the 2 processes of bone growth in length?

A
  1. interstitial growth of cartilage on epiphyseal side of epiphyseal plate
  2. replacement of cartilage with bone on the diaphysral side of the epiphyseal plate
165
Q

What is the epiphyseal plate’s role in bone growth?

A
  • new chondrocytes replace older ones destroyed by calcification
  • cartilage is replaced by bone on the diaphysral side
  • thickness of epiphyseal plate remains constant, but diaphysral bone increases in length
  • if epiphyseal plate is damaged, growth may be disturbed as cartilage may cease to divide
166
Q

what is apophysis?

A
  • normal outgrowth of a bone from a separate ossification center
  • forms an important insertion point for ligaments or tendons
  • may be mistaken for fractures
  • tibial tubercle, greater & lesser trochanters, iliac crest and mass of the 5th MT
167
Q

What is bone remodelling?

A

bone renews itself continually
- combination of bone resorption (osteoclasts) and bone deposition (osteoblasts)

168
Q

What are the advantages of bone remodelling?

A
  • new bone is more resistant to fracture
  • if new bone is subjected to increased stresses or work, it will grow thicker
  • the shape of bone can be altered for proper support based on the stress patterns
169
Q

What are the factors affecting bone remodelling?

A
  • exercise
  • minerals (calcium and phosphorus)
  • vitamins (A - stimulates activity of osteoblasts, C - synthesis of collagen, D - increases absorption of calcium from food, K and B12 - synthesis of bone proteins)
  • Hormones (thyroid, human growth hormone, testosterone and estrogen)
170
Q

What are the rates of remodelling during different life stages?

A

Brith to adolescence - more bone is produced than lost during remodelling
Adulthood - bone is equally resorbed and deposited
Elderly - osteoporosis occurs when resorption is greater than deposition

171
Q

What are the phases and steps in bone repair?

A
  1. reactive phase
    2a. reparative phase: fibrocartilaginous callus formation
    2b. reparative phase: bony callus formation
  2. bone remodelling phase
172
Q

What is the reactive phase?

A

an early inflammatory phase
- formation of fracture hematoma

173
Q

What is the reparative phase?

A

includes formation of fibrocartiliginous callus first and a bony callus second

174
Q

What is the bone remodelling phase?

175
Q

What is the 1st radiographic sign that a fracture is beginning to repair?

A

bone resorption at the fracture site (can’t see the cartilage)

176
Q

What is the bones role in calcium homeostasis?

A
  • bones store 99% of the body’s calcium
  • nerve and muscle cells, blood clotting, and enzyme reactions require stable levels of calcium ions in blood
  • bone buffers the calcium ion concentration
177
Q

How do bone buffers affect the calcium ion concentration?

A

Parathyroid gland secretes Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
- osteoclasts are stimulated to increase bone resorption and calcium is released into blood (increases blood calcium levels)
Calcitonin (produced by thyroid) causes Ca2+ to be deposited in bone (decreases blood calcium levels)

A

projecting part or prominence (external occipital protuberance)
