-contains blood vessels

A

central canal

112
Q

-It is located at the epiphyses of long bones and center of other bones.

-It has trabeculae(beams), which are interconnecting rods, and spaces that contain marrow.

-It has no osteons.

A

spongy bone

113
Q

interconnecting rods, and spaces that contain marrow.

A

trabeculae

114

A

ossification

115
Q

Bone formation that occurs within connective tissue membranes

A

intramembranous ossification

116
Q

Bone formation that occurs inside hyaline cartilage

A

endochondral ossification

117
Q

-occurs when osteoblasts begin to produce bone within connective tissue.

-This occurs primarily in the bones of the skull.

A

intramembranous ossification

118
Q

Osteoblasts line up on the surface of connective tissue fibers and begin depositing bone matrix to form a

A

trabeculae

119
Q

The process begins in areas and the trabeculae radiate out from the centers.

A

ossification centers

120
Q

how many are the ossification centers exist in each flat skull bone and mature skull bones result from fusion of these centers as they enlarge.

A

two or more

121
Q

-Endochondral bone formation is bone formation within a

-replaced by bone.

A

cartilage model

122
Q

Initially formed, which is bone formation in the diaphysis of a long bone.

A

primary ossification center

123
Q

bone formation in the epiphysis.

A

secondary ossification center

124
Q

occurs by the deposition of new bone lamellae onto existing bone or other connective tissue.

A

bone growth

125
Q

As 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.

A

bone remodeling

130
Q

-Broken bone causes bleeding and a blood clot forms.

-Callus forms which is a fibrous network between 2 fragments.

-Cartilage model forms first then, osteoblasts enter the callus and form cancellous bone this continues for 4-6 weeks after injury.
