Types of cartilage
- hyaline cartilage
- fibrocartilage
- elastic cartilage
Hyaline cartilage
- function
- fibers
- where?
Function: support, flexibility, resilience
Fibers: fine collagen
Where: articular(end of long bones), costal, larynx and airways, nose
Hyaline cartilage
Elastic cartilage
- function?
- fibers?
- location?
Function: bending/flexibility
Fibers: collagen and elastic
Location: external ear and epiglottis
Fibrocartilage
-function?
-fibers?
-location?
Function: absorbs shock, resist stretching
Fibers: thick collagen
Locations: meniscus, intervertebral disks, pubic symphysis
Fibrocartilage
Types of cartilage growth
Appositional
Interstitial
Calcification
Appositional growth
-outside in
-cells in the perichondrium secrete matrix against the external face of existing cartilage
Interstitial growth of cartilage
-inside-out
-lacunae bound chondrocytes inside the cartilage divide and secrete the new matrix, expanding the cartilage from within
Function of bones
Support, protect, movement, mineral storage, blood cell formation
Axial vs appendicular
Axial: skull, vertebrae, rib cage
Appendicular: upper and lower limbs, shoulders, hips
Shape of bones
-Long bones- longer than they are wide
-Flat bones- sternum, scapula, skull, ribs
-Short bones(sesamoid): cube, inside tendons
-irregular: odd shaped (vertebrae)
Compact vs spongy bone
Compact- dense outer layer

Spongy- honeycomb filled with yellow marrow
Epiphyses
Label
Bones membranes
-Periosteum
-endosteum
Periosteum
-Two layers
-outer layer is dense regular connective tissue
-inner layer consists of osteoblasts and osteoclasts
-richly supplied with blood, nerve fibers, and lymphatic vessels
Endosteum
-Delicate layers that cover internal bone surfaces
-contains osteoblasts and osteoclasts
-covers trabeculae of spongy bone
-lines canals of compact bone
Types of bone cells
-osteogenic cells:bone stem cell, gives rise to osteoblasts
-osteoblasts: bone-building cells
-osteoclasts: bone digesting cells (resorption)
-osteocytes: mature bone cells, maintain bone matrix
1) 2) 3) 4)
1)osteogenic cell
2)osteoblast
3) osteocytes
4) osteocyte
Structure of short, irregular, and flat bones
Hematopoietic tissue (red merrow) location in adults and infants
-Infants: found in medullary cavity and all areas of spongy bones
-Adults: found in diploe of flat bones(hip and sternum), and head of femur and humerus
