what kind of tissue is bone tissue?
|
connective tissue
|
|
6 functions of the bone
|
1.support 2.movement 3.protection 4.mineral storage 5.lipid storage 6.white and red blood cell production
|
|
hemopoiesis
|
process of making red blood cells
|
|
bone matrix is made up of:
|
25% collagen fibers
25% water 50% mineral salts 2% cells |
|
main mineral in bone matrix is:
|
hydroxyapetite
|
|
hydroxiapatite
|
combination of Ca hydroxide and Ca phosphate
|
|
diaphysis
|
shaft of the bone
|
|
epiphysis
|
ends of the bone
|
|
marrow cavity
|
where lipids are stored and blood cells and formed
|
|
articular cartilages
|
covers ends of the bone to protect it
|
|
periosteum
|
outer surface of bone, connects the tendons to the bone
|
|
compact bone
|
outer bone and epiphysis
|
|
spongy bone
|
at joints, may penetrate across marrow caity of campact bone
|
|
osteon
|
basic functional unit
|
|
haversian canal
|
central canal containing blood vessels
|
|
Osteoblasts
|
bone building cells
|
|
osteocytes
|
mature bone cells
|
|
lamellae
|
layers of bone cells
|
|
lacunae
|
little lakes; closet the cells live in
|
|
canaliculi
|
canals; tunnels that connect them together
|
|
trabeculae
|
"little beams"; beams that provide support in all directions
|
|
intramembranous ossification
|
when spongy bones develops within or on loose connective tissue
|
|
center of ossification
|
when cells turn into osteoblasts and start laying down matrix
|
|
endochondral ossification
|
bone formed by replacing cartilage with bone
|
|
primary ossification centers
|
where osteoblasts lay down bone tissue over remnants of calcified cartilage
|
|
osteocytes
|
mature bone cell
|
|
osteoprogenitor cells
|
stem cells of osteocytes
|
|
osteoblasts
|
actually produces new bone tissue
|
|
osteogenesis
|
making bone
|
|
inhibitors
|
keep minerals from precipitating out
|
|
osteoclasts
|
related to phagocytes; break down bone; made from monocytes (not osteoprogenitor cells)
|
|
osteolysis
|
breaking down bone
|
|
piezoelectric effect
|
when you compress a crystal and get a negative potential, the other side is positive which creates this current which stimulates osteoblasts
|
|
rickets
|
disease that exists when you have too much calcium; bow legged
|
|
scurvy
|
not enough vitamin C; teeth fall out, bruise easily
|
|
insulin like growth factors
|
promotes cell growth at the epiphyseal line
|
|
growth hormone (somatotropin)
|
stimulate body to use lipids instead of carbs
|
|
thyroxine
|
increases growth rate and stimulates mental processes
|
|
epiphyseal line
|
left from growth plate
|
|
osteopenia
|
where ossfication is decreasing
|
|
osteoporosis
|
decaying of bones
|
|
parathyroid gland releases ___ when ______.
|
PTH (parathormone); calcium drops too low
|
|
3 ways to increases Ca:
|
1. stimulates osteoclast activity
2. increases conversion of Vitamin to calcitrol 3. decreases rate of Ca excretion by kidney |
|
3 ways to decreases Ca:
|
1. decrease osteoclasts
2. increases osteoblastic activity 3. increase rate of Ca ion excretion in kidneys |
|
hypocalcemia
|
nervous system excitable de to increases membrane permeability
|
|
tetany
|
muscles freese; cause convulsions
|
|
hypercalcemia
|
nervous system depressed if Ca rises higher than normal (causes erratic heart beat, constipation)
|
|
mild hyperparathyroidism
|
forms kidney stones
|
|
serious hyperparathyroidism
|
too much PTH, minerals deposit in lungs, kidneys, and brain.
