skeletal system Flashcards
endosteum
inner layer before bone
has cells for growth, repair, and remodel
periosteum
outer layer of bone
osteoblasts
syn bone matrix
mineralization of skeleton
secrete osteiod
osteocytes
when osteoblast stuck in lacunae
osteoclasts
demineralize bone
free up calcium stored
diaphysis
middle tubular shaft of bone
epiphysis
end of bone w growth plate
bone shapes
long bone - long
short bones - cube like
flat bone - thin and curved
irregular bone - not in any other category
sesamoid bone - usually near muscle or tendon
compact bone
dense bone
aka cortical bone
organized w osteons
spongy bone
aka cancellous bone
has matrix trabeculae
at epiphysis
contain osteocytes
Haversian canal
pathway for blood vessels and nerves in osteons
run vertically through the bone
lamellae
rings made of bone deposits
lacunae
small opening in lamellae
contain fluid and osteocytes
canaliculi
canals radiate fr lacunae
Volkmann canals
connect the verticle Haversian canals
