Unit Study Guide 5 Flashcards
What are the four main components of the skeletal system?
Bone, cartilage, joints and ligaments.
Is cartilage avascular?
Yes, it will not bleed, so it is avascular.
What is the name of the bone tissue?
Osseous tissue.
What are the two subdivisions of osseous tissue?
Compact bone and spongy bone tissue.
What are the six functions of the bone?
Forms internal skeleton system, supports, protection, movement, mineral storage(Ca and PO4), energy storage, hemolysis(produce blood with bone marrow, liver will kill old blood cells).
What are the names for classification by shape?
Long, short, irregular and flat.
What is the name of a short bone that is embedded within tendons and found in several joints?
Sesamoid bones, they are in the middle of nowhere and not connected to bones. Highly variable.
What bone forms within sutures of skull bones and is highly variable, between bone and bone?
Sutural bones. Babies when born miss the median part of the sutural bone. When bone is against bone, it is called sutural joint(completely immovable joint).
What are the parts of the long bone(these bones are usually your limbs) on the outside?
Epiphysial, proximal/distal diaphyseal, diaphyseal.
What three layers make up the outer layer starting from superficial to deep of the long bone, and include the connective parts of the bone?
Periosteum(superficial and membrane to the bone/connective tissue), perforating fibers(connects periosteum to deep), and compact bone(deep). The articular cartilage connects to another bone.
What is the membrane that covers the outside and the one covering the inside the cavity of the long bone?
Periosteum, outside and endosteum, inside cavity.
What is the long bones cavity name?
Medullary cavity contains yellow bone marrow.
What is the main bone of the epiphysis section and what line does it contain?
Spongy bone which contains the epiphyseal line(used to be an epiphyseal plate which was used for growth with cartilage).
What is osteon, and parts contained within?
One unit of a compact bone. It contains central canal, and rings called lamella
What is the difference between circumferential lamellae and lamellae?
The bands which hold the ring lamellae together.
What is the name for the matured osteoblasts(not mature bone cells)?
Osteocytes(mature bone cells), found in the lacuna.
What do osteocytes do?
Creates a network between each other and senses the physical pressure on the bones. It will make osteoblasts work harder to increase bone strength.
What is the name of the fingers of the osteocytes?
Canaliculi(small tunnel).
What are the two canals in the osteons?
Central canal(straw) and perforating canal(bridge) which contains blood vessels and nerves.
What is the structure name of a spongy bone?
Trabeculae has many spaces between it for blood cells and blood vessels including red bone marrow(blood cells are produced).
What is the function of osteoblast and osteoclasts?
Osteoclasts dissolve old bone which forms the bone matrix. Osteoblasts build up new bone which uses bone matrix. (osteoclast regulates blood calcium homeostasis).
What are the 35% organic components of bone matrix?
Collegen fiber, ground substance(both functions are like rubber band and allows for small amount of flexibility).
What are the components of inorganic composition?
Mainly calcium phosphate(65%).
What are the types of cartilage found in the bone and bone structures?
Articular cartilage(between limb bones and flegea), costal cartilage(rib cage), intervertebral discs(spine), pubic symphysis(pubic bone), articular discs and others.
Characteristics of cartilage?
Resilient(soft bone), avascular(no blood vessels), not innervated(no nerves), and perichondrium.
What are the two kinds of growth in cartilage?
Appositional(chondroblasts-not mature in perichondrium secrete matrix and growth occurs on surface) and interstitial(chondrocytes-mature divide and secrete new matrix where growth occurs from within).
What are the two types of bone growth?
Intermembrane ossification(flat bone/skull bone growth or membrane to bone) and endochondral ossification(from calcium to bone) this is for most bones in the skeleton.
How does ossification work to make bone?
First ossification center forms, then undergoes calcification, woven bone and surrounding periosteum form, lamellar bone replaces woven bone, as compact and spongy bone form.
Most bones are formed through?
Endochondral ossification starts from diaphysis to epiphysis. Most cartilage is found in the epiphysis, where the epiphyseal plate is found and where growth of the bone occurs.
What are the five layers of interstitial growth of cartilage?
Zone 1, resting cartilage. Zone 2, proliferating cartilage(mitosis all the time). Zone 3, hypertrophic cartilage. Zone 4 calcified cartilage. Zone 5, ossification. This is all above the epiphyseal plate.
Appositional growth needs osteoblast(grows wider) and osteoclasts(removes inner older bone).
What is bone remodeling? Removal of bone tissue, new formation of bone tissue.
What is the process of regulation of the blood calcium and helps calcium absorption?
Sun shines on skin, skin converts vitamin D3, liver converts to calcidiol, calcidiol is converted to calcitriol in the kidney.
What two receptors work together to regulate blood calcium homeostasis?
Kidneys and parathyroid(duct). Calcitriol and parathyroid hormone(increases blood calcium). These hormones will ask osteoclasts to release more calcium.
What hormone will be released when calcium level is too high?
Calcitonin.
What are the effects of calcitonin?
Inhibits movement of bone calcium into blood, inhibits osteoclasts, stimulates kidneys which increases calcium loss.
What is growth hormone?
Stimulated liver to produce the hormone. Activates osteoblasts.
What is osteoporosis?
When the bone matrix is not healthy, bone resorption outpaces bone deposition.
What are the two subdivisions of skeleton bones?
appendicular skeleton and appendicular.
What bones are under the Axial?
Skull, auditory ossicles, hyoid(neck bone connected to cartilage), vertebral column and thoracic cage.
What bones are under the appendicular bones?
Pectoral girdle, upper limb bones, pelvic girdle and lower limb bones.
What is the meaning of girdle?
The connective part of the bone.
What are the two classifications of bone on the skull?
Cranial bones protect the brain and are attachment sites(most are flat). Second is facial bones, they frame your face, have the sense of organ cavities, opening for air and food, teeth and attachment sites.
What are the 4 cavities in the cranial part of the skull?
Cranial, orbital, oral, nasal, sinuses cavity.
How many of each cranial bone?
Frontal, Occipital, precipital(2), ethmoid, temporal(2) and sphenoid.
Where does the brain sit on the cranial bones?
The sphenoid(the base).
What sits on the sella turcica?
Brain sits and connects to the pituitary gland in the middle of the sella turcica.
Emoid is hidden under the nasal cavity. Why does it have a weird shape and a lot of surface area?
Heat up the cold dry air and make it heated.
Nasal cavity is separated by the?
Perpendicular plate.
What are the three parts of the nasal septum?
Perpendicular plate of ethmoid bone, septal cartilage and vomer.
What nerves are in the nasal septum(right upper part)?
Olfactory bulb and olfactory nerves(smell).
What are the major sutures? And what is a sutures?
Sutures mean bone and bone. The four major sutures are coronal(between frontal and parietal), squamous(between parietal and temporal), sagittal(between the parietal) and lambdoidal(between parietal and occipital) sutures.
How many facial bones are there and of each how many?
Mandible, frontal(2), maxillae(2), nasal(2), lacrimal(2), palatines(2), vomer, inferior nasal conchae(2).
