Skeletal System- Bones Flashcards
What is the main functions of bones?
Support-scaffolding
Protection- surround partial( thorax/lungs and heart) complete skull/brain
Locomotion- something attached that moves- muscle attachment -storage for essential materials- calcium and phosphorous
Hematopoiesis- produce blood
What is the microscopic structure of bones?
Osteoblasts- build bone and produce bone cells
Osteocyte- bone cells
Osteoclasts- remove bone and remodel
What three things are essential for bones function?
Calcium phosphorous balance
Calcitonin- hormone
PTH
What is Wolff’s law?
Bone or tissue remolded due to stress applied to it.
Bone healing- bone fractured or broken
What is cancellous bone?
Spongy bone inside the bone. Bone spicules
Light=strong
Narrow= liquid fluid
What are the parts of the bone
Internal in either the metaphysis/epiphysis -inside the ends of bone
Short bones- fingers
Flat bones- skull
What is compact bone?
Outside bone the harder part.
Lamellar bone, dense and strong
What is the Haversian system?
Communication and way blood vessels in tiny compacted cylinders of bone runs length wise
Also called a canal that has vascular and nerves
What is lamina?
Multiple layers
Canaliculi
Cell to cell external location
What is the diaphysis?
Middle of the bone
What is the membranous layer of bone?
Nerves and blood vessels are here
What is the periosteum?
Lines the outside of bone- fibrous tissue
What is endosteum?
Lines numeros bones on the inside
What is the formation of bones?
Has endochondral- inside cartilage most bones have this
Ossification centers of long bones- blood vessels surfaces things blood- cartilage
Primary diaphysis, secondary epiphysis
Epiphyseal plate- divide the head of bone epiphysis/diaphysis
Cartilage remains stops growing
Bone browns longitudinal and growth plate closes, cartilage ossificates meaning changes into bone
What is the intramembranous?
Inside of a membrane some bones in the skull have this and cellular differentiation
What is a mesochondal?
Specific spot in embryo
What is the term for beginning of bone?
Osteogenic
What is included in osteoid production?
Calcification and remodeling
Classification of bones
Long- longer than they are wide
Length>width
Parts epiphysis- on top of physics
Proximal

Dorsal
