Q

INFO

A

toddler around 300 bones: Adult 206 bones— joint together - decreased no. of bones.

22
Q

as wide as they’re long”, bones of wrist and ankle.
-width almost the same as height
Ex-
Carpals- 16 bones - 2 hands (8 per hand) → Under sa wrist.
Tarsal- 7 per foot (total 14) -> under sa ankle.

A

SHORT BONES

23
Q

relatively thin, flattened shape; some skull bones, ribs, scapulae, sternum

A

FLAT BONES

24
Q

vertebrae & facial bones.

entire spinal cord
-no definite shape; EX. sikag ka isda, cheek bones”zygomatic bone”
lower Jaw bone (‘mandible”),
Upper jaw (maxilla”).

A

Diaphysis

26
Q

two ends containing red bone marrow.

A

Epiphysis

27
Q

thin layer covering of epiphyses.
avoid rubbing / friction between bones.

A

Articular Cartilage

28
Q

Compose of cartilage & is the site of growth in bone length.

A

Epiphyseal Plate or Growth plate

29
Q

replaces epiphyseal plate when bone growth stops.

A

Epiphyseal Lines

30
Q

dense connective tissue that covers the outer surface of a bone.

Peripheral/sides →Bone

A

Periosteum

31
Q

thinner connective tissue that lines the surface of the medullary cavity.

→inside

A

Endosteum

32
Q

bone-forming cells for bone formation, repair & remodeling of bone, found in periosteum & endosteum.

Building

A

Osteoblasts

33
Q

bone cells; Osteoblasts that have become surrounded by matrix.

A

Osteocytes

34
Q

bone-destroying cells, remove existing bone called bone reabsortion for repair of remodelling.

A

Osteoclasts

35
Q

2 Types of Bones based on
Histological Structure:

A

1.)Compact or Cortical Bone
2.) Spongy or Cancellous Bone

36
Q

mostly solid matrix; dense; located in diaphysis; consists of osteons/Haversian Canal System. → find blood vessels and nerves
No pores/openings

A

Contical or Compact Bone

37
Q

consists of a lacy network of bone with many small, marrow-filled
spaces; located in the epiphyses & lines the medullary cavity; consists of trabeculae (beams)
- no central canal/ blood vessels and nerves.

A

Spongy or Cancellous Bone

38
Q

– contain blood vessels

A

Central or Haversian Canal

39
Q

–concentric rings

A

Lamellae

40
Q

A

 Lacunae

41
Q

– bone cells

A

 Osteocytes

42
Q

– connects osteocytes together by
cell processes

A

 Canaliculi

43
Q

found in spongy bone
 delicate interconnecting rods or plates of
bone, resembling beams of a building
 add strength to a bone
 marrow fill spaces between trabeculae
 usually w/o blood vessels & central canals

A

Trabeculae

44
Q

occurs when osteoblasts begin to produce bone in connective tissue membranes.
 process begins in areas called ossification centers where trabeculae radiate out from
 trabeculae may enlarge or be replaced by compact bone e.g. skull

A

Intramembranous Ossification

45
Q

 Bone formation that occurs inside hyaline cartilage.
 process through which the base of the skull and most of the remaining skeletal system develop.
 starts off with cartilage models having thebgeneral shape of the bone.

A

Endochondral Ossification

46

50
Q

– projection from a bone

A

Process

51
Q

– smooth rounded end of
bone where it forms an articulation
w/ another

A

Condyle

52
Q

 involves the removal of existing bone by osteoclasts and the deposition of new bone by osteoblasts; occurs in all bones

– Responsible for:
 bone growth
 changes in bone shape
 the adjustment of bone to stress
 bone repair
 calcium ion regulation in the body fluids

A

Bone Remodeling
