|
Name the three main components of bone matrix
|
collagen, crystallized mineral salts, water
|
|
What are the main components of the crystallized mineral salts in bone matrix?
|
calcium phosphate, calcium hydroxide and calcium carbonate. Also in the bone matrix are Mg, F, S04 and K
|
|
Name the four types of bone cells
|
Osteoclasts, osteoblasts, osteocytes, osteogenic cells
|
|
Where are osteogenic cells found?
|
inner periosteum, endosteum and haversian canals
|
|
What is the function of osteocytes?
|
Maintain metabolism - exchange of nutrients and wastes with blood
|
|
When does ossification start in the human body?
|
Around 6 weeks
|
|
What are the two types of bone development?
|
Intramembranous and Endochondral (more common)
|
|
What are the four stages of intermembranous ossification?
|
Development of ossification centre
calcification formation of trabeculate development of periosteum |
|
What are the six stages of endochondral ossification?
|
development of cartilage model
growth of cartilage model development of primary ossification centre development of medullary cavity development of secondary ossification centre formation of articular cartilage and epiphyseal plate |
|
Name the various components of osteons
|
central (haversian) canal, lamellae, lacunae, osteocytes, canaliculi. Blood vessels, nerves and lymphatic vessels penetrate though perforating or volkmann's canals.
|
|
Flat bones, short bones and irregular bones are mostly formed of which type of bone?
|
spongy
|
|
How many bones in the axial and appendicular portion of the body?
|
80- axial
126- appendicular |
|
Name a couple of functions of sesamoid bones
|
protect tendon, increase mechanical effect of tendon
|
|
Which hormones stimulate or regulate growth and from which gland do they originate?
|
hGH - pituitary
t3, t4, calcitonin - thyroid PTH - parathyroid testosterone, estrogen - testes, ovaries, adrenal glands |
|
What protein promotes growth in childhood? What does this protein do? Where is it produced?
|
Insulin-like Growth Factors (IGFs)
promotes osteoblast function, cell division and enhances the synthesis of new proteins produced in response to hGH in the liver and bone tissues |
|
What hormones promote bone growth in childhood?
|
Insulin (promotes protein synthesis)
T3 and T4 |
|
What are the two criteria for classifying joints?
|
1. presence of space between joints
2. the type of connective tissue that holds the bones together |
|
Name the joint types
|
Fibrous, cartilaginous and synovial
|
|
What are the three types of fibrous joints? Give an example of each
|
Sutures - skull joints
syndesmones - gomphosis interosseus membranes - between ulna and radius |
|
Name the two types of cartilaginous joints and give an example of each.
|
Synchondroses (hyaline cartilage, no movement) - epiphyseal plates
Symphyses - pubic symphysis |
|
What are the components of a synovial joint?
|
Articular cartilage (reduce friction, absorb shock), articular capsule (forms ligaments), synovial membrane
|
|
Name the classifications of synovial joints and give an example of each
|
Planar (navicular-lateral cuneiform), saddle (carpal-metacarpal of thumb), ball-and-socket (ishial-femoral), pivot (atlanto-axial), hinge (humero-ulnar), condyloid (radio-carpal)
|
|
What are the determinants of joint range of motion
|
structure and shape of articulating surfaces
strength and tension of ligaments arrangement and tension of muscles contact of soft parts hormones amount of use |
|
What are the types of fractures?
|
Colles (distal end of radius)
Pott (distal end of fibula) comminuted impacted greenstick open (compound) stress |
