37
Q

aka “Haversian canal”

A

Central Canals

38
Q

Haversian Systems:

A

• Osteocytes

• Lacunae
• Lamellae
• Central Canals

• Canaliculi
• Volkmann’S CanalS

39
Q

Cells responsible for the formation of new bone tissue

A

Osteoblast

40
Q

Cells responsible for the resorption of the
bone

A

Osteoclast

41
Q

Derived from osteoblast

A

Osteocytes

42
Q

Living element of the bone

A

Osteocytes

43
Q

They regulate the flow of minerals into & out
the bone

A

Osteocytes

44
Q

Primitive connective tissue will be replaced
by osteoid matrix
➢Ex: cranial bones, facial bones, & clavicle

A

Membranous phase

45
Q

Aka “cartilaginous phase”
➢Ex: long bones, spine, ribs

A

Endochondral phase

46
Q

Stages Of Bone Remodeling

  • Osteoclast will be
    activated
A

Activation

47
Q
  • Osteoclast will dissolve the bone
A

Resorption

48
Q
  • Osteoblast will be
    recruited
A

Reversal

49
Q

Formation of the new bone tissue

A

Formation

50
Q

Bone will undergo dormancy until the next cycle begins

A

Quiescence

51
Q

Stages Of Bone Remodeling:

A

• Activation
• Resorption
• Reversal
• Formation
• Quiescence

52
Q

Aka “articulations”

A

Joints

53
Q

sites where two or more bones meet

A

Joints

54
Q

Two Functions
• hold the bones together securely
• give the rigid skeleton mobility

A

Joints

55
Q

immovable joints

A

Synarthroses

56
Q

no mobility to very slight mobility

A

Synarthroses

57
Q

made up of fibrous structure

A

Synarthroses

58
Q

slightly movable joints

A

Amphiarthroses

59
Q

made up of cartilaginous structure

A

Amphiarthroses

60
Q

mobility with stability

A

Amphiarthroses

61
Q

➢freely movable joints
➢(+) synovial capsule

A

Diarthroses

62
Q

bones are united by fibrous tissue
➢fxns:
• stability
• shock absorption
• force transmission

A

Fibrous Joints

63
Q

come in two varieties, which differ in the type of cartilage involved:

A

Cartilaginous Joints

64
Q

immovable joints linked by hyaline cartilage

A

SYNCHONDROSES

65
Q

amphiarthrotic joints linked by discs of fibrocartilage
➢ ex: IV disc, pubis symphysis

A

SYMPHYSES

66
Q

are joint in which the articulating bone
ends are separated by a joint cavity
containing synovial fluid

A

Synovial Joints

67
Q

Synovial
Joint

A

• Articular cartilage
• Articular capsule
• Joint cavity
• Reinforcing ligaments

68
Q

Flattened fibrous sacs lines with synovial membrane and containing a thin film of
synovial fluid

A

Bursae

69
Q

They are common where ligaments, muscles, skin, tendons, or bones rub together

A

Bursae

70
Q

an elongated bursa that wraps completely around a tendon subjected to friction

A

Tendon Sheath

71
Q

➢articular surfaces are essentially flat
➢only short slipping or gliding
movements
➢movements are nonaxial
➢Ex: intercarpal joints

A

Plane Joint

72
Q

cylindrical end of one bone fits into a
trough-shaped surface on another bone

A

Hinge Joint

73
Q

Angular movements is allowed in just one plane

A

Hinge Joint

74
Q

They are UNIAXIAL
➢Ex: elbow jt, ankle jt, knee jt

A

Hinge Joint

75
Q

rounded end of one bone fits into a
sleeve or ring of bone uniaxial joints
➢Ex: PRU jt, AA jt

A

Pivot Joint

76
Q

egg-shaped articular surface of one bone
fits into an oval concavity in another

A

Condylar Joint

77
Q

allow the moving bone to travel (1) from
side to side and (2) back and forth, but the
bone cannot rotate around its long axis

A

Condylar Joint

78
Q

➢biaxial
➢Movement occurs around two axes
➢Ex: MCP jts

A

Condylar Joint

79
Q

➢each articular surface has both convex
and concave areas, like a saddle for a
horse
➢biaxial
➢Ex: CMC jt of the thumb

round socket in another

A

Ball-And-Socket Joint

81
