Test 2 (Second Time Around) Flashcards
What are the three types of cartilage?
Hyaline
Elastic
Fibrocartilage
Cartilage-forming cells which produce new tissue by secreting a matrix
chondroblasts
Cartilage growth from the outside
Appositional growth
Chondrocytes within the cell divide and secrete a new matrix
interstitial growth
Short bones that grow within a tendon
Sesamoid bones
Long bone shaft
diaphysis
Ends of the long bone
epiphyses
Indicated location of growth plate
Epiphyseal line
Area in the center of the diaphysis with no spongy bone
Medullary cavity
Groups of cylinders to help bone resist stresses
Osteons
Runs through the core of each osteon and contains blood vessels and nerves
central canal
Lie at right angles to the central canals and connect the blood and nerve supply of the periosteum
Perforating canals
Steam cells that differentiate into bone forming osteoblasts
Osteogenic cells
Bone forming cells
Osteoblasts
Mature bone cells
Osteocytes
Cells that reabsorb or break down bone tissue
Osteoclast
Bones develop from a membrane
Intramembraneous ossification
Bones develop from hyaline cartilage
Endochondral ossification
Growth by addition of bone tissue to its surface
appositional growth
How often is compact bone replaced?
Every 10 years
Structures that stick out usually for muscle or ligament attachment
processes
Large rounded projection
tuberosity
Ridge
Crest
Large blunt projection
Trochanter
Narrow ridge of bone
Line
Small rounded projection
Tubercle
Projection above a condyle
Epicondyle
Sharp, slender projection
Spine
round or oval opening
foramen
Furrow
Groove
Narrow slit
Fissure
Indentation
Notch
Shallow depression
Fossa
Canal
Meatus
Sinus
Cavity within bone
Bone breaks and pierces the skin
Compound bone fracture
Bone breaks into small fragments
Comminuted fracture
Bone crushed during fracture
compression
Fracture caused by excessive twisting
Spiral
What is the fracture healing process?
Hematoma formation
Fibrocartilage callus formation
Bony callus formation
Bone remodeling
Blood vessels break, releasing blood that clots
hematoma formation
New vessels enter fracture area, which forms a soft callus
Fibrocartilage callus formation
Bony tissue fills the fracture area, creating a hard callus
Bony callus formation
Bony callus is remodeled, excess bony material is removed and the repaired area looks like the original bone
Bone remodeling
Bone tissue deteriorates at a faster rate than it is being produced
Osteoporosis
Bones are inadequately mineralized in adults
Osteomalacia
Bones are inadequately mineralized in children
Rickets
Bones of the upper and lower limbs as well as their attachments
Appendicular Skeleton
80 total bone arranged into skull, vertebral column and thoracic cage
Axial skeleton
Interlocking immovable joins the connect the skull bones
sutures
