characteristics
specialized for weight support
dynamic, highly vascularized
major mineral storage area (deposit calcium in bone) gives to other parts later
Functions
support and protection
movement
hematopoiesis (blood cell formation)
(red marrow blood cells and platelets, yellow marrow fat)
storage - calcium phosphate
Composition
cells
(osteoblast, osteocyte, osteoclast)
bone matrix
osteoblast
produces organic matrix of bone. uses type 1 collagen (fibers in layers), ground substance, and chondroitin sulfate
osteocyte
smaller than osteoblasts, cell type mature. non dividing, has own lacunae
osteoclast
take away bone. non mitotic. Dissolve bone by absorbing surface in depressions. ruffle the border of precessions to increase surface area of cell to bone. allws extracellular digestion. focal decalcifiication occurs first by buildup of organic acids under ruffled border
bone matrix
read through different processes
calcification
ossification
osteoid tissue
Periosteum
highly vascularized CT covering external surface of bone. an outer layer and inner layer
Bone Canaliculi
canals within ossified matrix. interconnect lacunae and ensure that all surfaces of the osteocyte are bathed by tissue fluid. Miniature lifeline to osteocytes
Bone types
spongy - lots of spaces, each of which contains marrow. inside every bone
compact - no marrow spaces. tightly packed units called osteons. creates outer surface of every bone
Compaction
transforms spongy bone to compact bone. Fill in space between spicules of spongy bones. osteoblasts deposit new osteoid material in layers. Marrow spaces are eventually gone leaving compact bone. Some spongy remains
Haversian Canal System
osteon - unit formed by the filling of marrow spaces.
osteon built around a blood vessel of old marrow space. osteon appears as ring of tissue. Inner space is Haversian canal
Volkman's canals
passageway linking Haversian canals
