Q

describe how bone growth occurs

A

this is done by ossification when cartilage is turned into new bones which happens in the growth plates.

Q

describe how bone remodelling occurs

A

osteocytes detects mechanical stress and send a hormone signal to the osteoclasts.

osteoclasts secrete a digestive enzyme which dissolves the old bone matrix which is where resorption happens.

then osteoblasts secrete a layer of collagen which ossifies to become new bone.

17
Q

what are the articulating bones of the shoulder

A

scapula and humerus

18
Q

articulating bones of elbow

A

humerus, radius, ulna

19
Q

articulating bones of wrist

A

radius, carpals

20
Q

articulating bones of hip

A

pelvis, femur

21
Q

articulating bones of knee

A

femur, tibia, patella

22
Q

articulating bones of ankle

A

tibia, fibula, talus

23
Q

describe what a flat bone is

A

layer of cancellous bone sandwiched between 2 compact bones. function is perioesteum.

24
Q

describe what a long bone is

A

form levers, longer than they are wider, appendicular skeleton.

25
Q

describe what a short bone is

A

tend to be load bearing, appendicular skeleton.

26
Q

describe what a seasamoid bone is

A

do not directly articulate with other bones, surrounded by tendons

27
Q

describe what a irregular bone is

A

protect vital organs

28
Q

describe what the basic structure and function is for ligaments.

A

white bands of tough, strong inelastic tissue. stabilises joints and restricts movements. connects bone to bone. ball and socket joints need more ligaments

29
Q

describe what a fibrous joint is

A

has collagen fibres, in skull so protect the bone, fibres are tough and inelastic.

30
Q

describe what a cartilagenous joint is

A

vertebrae and sternum, allow bone growth in childhood, important for breathing, shock absorbers, protection, stability and growth.

31
Q

describe what a synovial joint is

A

freely movable joint, hinge, balland socket, condyloid, saddle, plane, pivot.

32
Q

describe what a saddle joint does

A

biaxial (sagittal and frontal).
concave and convex.

33
Q

describe what a pivot joint does

A

unixial (transverse).
convex.

34
Q

describe what a hinge joint is

A

unixial (sagittal)
convex.

35
Q

describe what a gliding joint is

36
Q

describe what a condyloid joint is

37
Q

describe what a ball and socket joint is

A

triaxial joint
