29
Q

bone forms within an accumulation of mesenchymal or fibrous tissue; no cartilage model

A

intramembranous ossification

30
Q

bone forms in a cartilage model; cartilage is removed and replaced by bone

A

endochondral ossification

31
Q

has 5 zones and provides longitudinal bone growth

A

epiphyseal plate

32
Q

5 zones of epiphyseal plate

A

resting zone/reserve cartilage

proliferation

hypertrophy and maturation

calcification

ossification

33
Q

Describe intramembranous ossification

A

mesenchyme condense and differentiate cells to form osteoblasts.

osteoblasts deposit osteoid and get trapped to form osteocytes

this process forms lamellae, which then from osteons

34
Q

Describe the primary center of endochondral ossification

A

appears in diaphysis and develops towards epiphysis

matrix becomes calcified and perichondrium becomes periosteum

**diaphysis is ossified by birth

35
Q

describe secondary centers of endochondral ossifiaction

A

appear in epiphysis during first few years of life

36
Q

when does epiphyseal plate become ossified?

A

when growth is complete

~20 years

37
Q

on which side is cartilage replaced in length-wise bone growth?

A

diaphyseal side

38
Q

describe width-wise bone growth (and another name for it)

A

bone deposits at the periosteum and resorption at the endosteum

aka appositional growth

39
Q

bone production + resorption to allow adaptation of skeleton

occurs throughout life

A

remodeling

40
Q

what is Wolff’s Law?

A

bone will remodel to accommodate the stress placed on it

41
Q

Factors stimulating bone production (3)

A

Growth hormone

calcitonin (from parathyroid cells)

Bone compression

42
Q

Factors stimulating bone resorption (2)

A

PTH

Bone tension

43
Q

when do vertebrae begin developing

A

week 4

44
Q

what are sclerotomes

A

paired tissue from somites that begin to surround notochord (week 4 - vertebral development)

45
Q

cranial sclerotomes are _________ arranged

caudal sclerotomes are _________ arranged

A

loosely

densely

46
Q

what is the centrum

A

beginning vertebral body

47
Q

what do sclerotomes form? (2)

A

IV discs

centrum

48
Q

when do chondrification centers appear in mesenchyme in vertebral development?

A

week 6

49
Q

extension of chondrification centers develop (2)

A

spinous processes

transverse processes

50
Q

Vertebral development

Week 12:

At birth:

At puberty:

A

week 12: primary ossification centers are present

at birth: fusion of vertebral arch and centrum (caudal to cranial)

At puberty: secondary ossification centers present in spinous, transverse, and body (2)

51
Q

what is hemivertebra

A

failure of 2 chondrification centers to unite

leads to scoliosis

52
Q

what is the calvaria

A

skull cap

53
Q

what are fontanelles

A

6 fibrous areas that allow calvaria to undergo changes in shape during birth

54
Q

bone around brain

A

neurocranium

55
Q

3 bones at base of cranium that undergo endochondral ossification

A

57
Q

viscerocranium forms from ______

A
