Bone And Skeletal Tissues

Front 1

Skeletal Cartilage

Back 1

-Contains no blood vessels

-Surrounded by the perichondrium (dense irregular c.t.) that resists outward expansion

-3 Types: hyaline, elastic, and fibrocartilage

Front 2

Hyaline Cartilage

Back 2

-Provides support, flexibility, and resilience

-Is the most abundant skeletal cartilage

Front 3

Hyaline Cartilage is present in which cartilages?

Back 3

1. Articular-covers the ends of the long bones

2. Costal-connects the ribs to the sternum

3. Respiratory- makes up larynx, reinforces air passages

4. Nasal-supports the nose

Front 4

Elastic Cartilage

Back 4

-Similar to hyaline cartilage but contains elastic fibers

Front 5

Where is elastic cartilage found?

Back 5

External ear and the epiglottis

Front 6

Fibrocartilage

Back 6

-Highly Compressed with great tensile strength

-Contains collagen fibers

Front 7

Where is fibrocartilage found?

Back 7

-Menisci of the knee and in intervertebral disks

Front 8

Growth of Cartilage

Back 8

1. Appositional

2. Interstital

Front 9

Appositional

Back 9

growth by addition at the periphery of a particular part.

*Growth by the addition of new layers on those previously formed, characteristic of tissues formed of rigid materials.

Front 10

Interstital

Back 10

that occurring in the interior of structures already formed.

*an increase in size by hyperplasia or hypertrophy within the interior of a part or structure that is already formed.

Front 11

Calcification of cartilage occurs..

Back 11

1. During normal bone growth

2. During old age

Front 12

2 Classification of bones are:

Back 12

1. Axial

2. Appendicular

Front 13

Axial Skeleton

Back 13

the bones of the body axis, including the skull, vertebral column, ribs, and sternum.

Front 14

Appendicular Skeleton

Back 14

the bones of the limbs and supporting thoracic (pectoral) and pelvic girdles.
