____ – forms from mesodermal(mesenchymal cells and may develop with or without a cartilaginous template.
|
bone
|
|
_ : (aka. Bone formation)
- _ – no cartilage template, (eg., flat bones) - _ – cartilage template, (eg. Long bones) |
Osteogenesis
intramembranous endochondral |
|
Long bones are actually composed of 2 distinct types of bone.
- _ (covers the shaft and the ends) - _ (in the center of the epiphyses) |
compact
spongy |
|
The functional unit of the bone is an _
|
osteon
|
|
A blood vessel is present at the center of each osteon (_)
|
Central Canal
|
|
Osteoblasts that have been surrounded by bone matrix are called _
|
Osteocytes
|
|
Although bone cells become encased in mineral deposits, they receive nutrients from other cells via connections called _, extensions of cytoplasm connected to adjacent cells via _
|
canaliculi, gap junction
|
|
- Bone is constantly being remodeled in response to the stresses placed upon the specific bone. Osteocytes continue to produce new bone, while cells called _ remove bone
|
osteoclasts
|
|
Functions of the Skull:
- protect and support the _ - regulate brain _ - dissipate excess body heat through evaporation in the _ - supports the _, articulation points - supports the “_” |
brain
temperature nasal passages jaws voice box |
|
What factors have shaped the evolution of the brain? (4)
|
enlarging brain
jaw structure (feeding strategies) respiratory structures (organs) endothermy (warm blooded animals) |
|
Divisions of the vertebrate skull:
_ – supports the brain. |
chondrocranium
|
|
Divisions of the vertebrate skull:
_ – most ancient of the skull components. Supports the pharyngeal slits. |
splanchnocranium
|
|
Divisions of the vertebrate skull:
_ – found in later vertebrates, it is the outer casing of the skull (composed of dermal bones) |
dermatocranium
|
|
Divisions of the vertebrate skull:
_ – the structures encasing the brain, may be composed of all three crania. |
brain case
|
|
Divisions of the vertebrate skull:
_ – equivalent of the chondrocranium. |
neurocranium
|
|
Chondrocranium:
_ – back of the skull. _ – mesethmoid and turbinates in nasal passage. _– ventral and ventrolateral chondrocranium. |
occipital
ethmoid sphenoid |
|
Splanchnocranium: bones of the _
- middle ear bones – _,_,_ - _ – connects the larnyx and tracheal cartilages to the skull |
hyoid arch
incus, malleus, stapes hyoid |
|
Dermatocranium: outer covering of the skull (6)
|
facial
orbital temporal vault palatal mandibular |
|
Evolution of the Jaws:
- Upper jaw – in early gnathostomes was the _ (palatoquadrate). In Mammals, became the _ and premaxilla |
quadrate, maxilla
|
|
Evolution of the Jaws:
- Lower jaw – (mandible) Began as _ cartilage in early fish. In mammals, is a collection of manbidular components including the _ (teeth). |
Meckel's, dermal dentary
|
|
_ – diminished role in jaw function and increased role in sensory detection (hearing)
|
splanchnocranium
|
|
_ – greatly increased size to meet the needs of increasing brain size. Additional modifications to support greater sensory input.
|
dermatocranium
|
|
_ – relative to overall size of braincase, slightly diminished role. Sharks have exclusive chondrocranium (no dermatocranium) and mammals have predominantly dermatocranium.
|
chondrocranium
|
|
jaws – demonstrate wide variety of forms, largely dependent on the mode of _
|
feeding
|
|
_ feeders (sharks) were dependent almost totally on their jaws for capturing food.
|
predatorial
|
|
Mammals evolved _ teeth which allowed for other anatomical structures to aid in the acquisition of food. Teeth were became specialized for _.
|
specialized, mastication
|
