Function of Bones

-Firm Framework


-Protect Vital Organs


-Storage for Minerals salts and fat


-Blood cell production


- Allows movemetn

Diaphysis

Shaft


main Proportion

Epipihysis

The ends


Enlarged ends


Covered by a Thins layer of articular cartilage

Compact bone

hollow cylinder


surrounding the cavity



Yellow marrow storage

cavity is used for fat strorahge of yellow marrow

spongy bone

more porous


contain large spaces filled with red bone marrow

Yellow Marrow

Storage of fat

Red bone marrow

Blood cell production take place

Periosteum

Outer surface of the bone


dense


white fibrous covering


not found in the articular cartilage

Connective tissue

cells separated from each other by large amount of non cellular material. called matrix

matrix

organic salt are deposited


increase its rigidity and strength


hardest connective tissue

Osteons

Units of compact bone

Central canal

Lamallae

Surrounds the central canal


concentric layers of bony matrix

lacunae

Between the lacunae


small spaces in the martix

canaliculi

tiny canals that runs between lacunae

spongy bone

irregular arrangement of thin bony plates called trabeculae

trabelcula

occupied by bones cells


not arrange in concentric layer

cartilage

connective tissue


contain numerous muscle fibres


made up of protein called collagen


certain amount of flexibility

chrodrin

fibres embedded in a firm matrix of a protein- carbohydrate complex


enables cartilage to function as a structural support

Chondroblast

firm matrix where collagen fibres are embed to


spaces that contain cartilage cells


gradually surrounded until trapped in a small space (lacunae)

Chndrocytes

Mature chondroblast when when surrounded and traped

Hyaline Cartilage

closely packed collagenous fibres throughout the matrix.


strength and flexibility


make up rings of trachea and bronchi, ends of bones

elastic cartilage

conspicuous elastic cartilage


not closesly packed


provides flexible elastic support


eg outer ear

fibrocartilage

coarse appearance


not compact


can be compressed slightly


intervertebral discs of the spinal column providing cushion between vertebrae

joint

bone to bone

slightly movable joint

held in place by cartilage


allow slight movment


joint between adjacent vertebrae

fixed joint

no movement occours


held in place by connective tissue


skull

movable joint

amount of movement possible is limited by ligaments, muscles, tendons and adjoining bones

Ball-and-socket joint

spherical heal of one bone fits into a cup like cavity of another


head of humerus


head of femur

hinge joint

elbow


knee


finger


toes

Pivot joint


allows the head to rotate


Radius and ulna

gliding joint

allows movement at any direction


side to side and back and forth moveent


thumb joints with palm

condyloid

metacarpals and phalangies
