  • Front
  • Back
A layer of dense connective tissue - acts like a girdle to resist outward expansion when the cartilage is compressed - (around the cartilage)
Perichondrium
-Most abundant skeletal cartilage
-provides support, flexibility and resilience
Hyaline
Type of hyaline cartilage
-covers the ends of most bones at moveable joints
Articular
Connects ribs to the sternum
Costal
forms the skeleton of the larynx and reinforces other respiratory passageways
Respiratory
Supports the external nose
Nasal Cartilage
Similar to hyaline but contains elastic fibers
-found in ear and epiglotis
Elastic Cartilage
Highly compressed with great tensile strength
-Contains collagen fibers
-found in menisci of the knee and in intervertebral disc between two pelvic bones
Fibrocartilage
Cells in the perichondrium secrete matrix against the external face of existing cartilage
Appositional
Lacunae-bound chondrocytes inside the cartilage divide and secrete new matrix, expanding the cartilage from within
Interstitial
Bones of the skull, vertebral column and rib cage
Axial Skeleton
Bones of the upper and lower limbs, shoulder and hip
Appendicular Skeleton
Considerably longer than wide
Has a shaft plus two ends
All limb bones except patella, wrist, and ankle bone are these.
Long bones
These are roughly cube shaped. Examples are wrist and ankles
Short bones
Thin, flattened and usually a bit curved. The sternum, scapulae, ribs and most skull bones are these.
Flat bones
Heve complicated shapes that fit no other classes. Examples: vertebrae and hip bones
Irrregular bones
List 5 functions of bones
(Sam, Patty, Maggie, Mary, Barbara)
Support, Protection, Movement, Mineral Storage, Blood cell formation
Bulges, depressions, and holes serve as - sited of attachment for muscles, ligaments and tendons - joint surfaces - conduits for blood vessels and nerves
Bone Markings
Sites of muscle and ligament attachment
Projections
Muscle and ligament projections : (Tim calls Tom late to eat savory pizza)
Tuberosity - rounded projection
Crest- narrow prominet ridge
Trochanter-large, blunt
irregular surface
Line - narrow ridge of bone
Tubercle - small rounded
projection
Epicondyle- raised area
above a condyle
Spine- sharp, slender
projection
Process-any bony prominence
Projections that help to form joints ( Harry faces Cathy's rage.)
Head - bony expans. on
narrow neck
Facet - smooth, nearly flat
articular surface
Condyle-rounded articular
projec.
Ramus - armlike bar of bone
Depressions and openings
(Mary sells fake gadgets for Freddy)
Meatus- canal-like passageway
Sinus-cavity within a bone
Fossa- shallow, basinlike
depression
Groove - furrow
Fissure -narrow, slitlike
opening
Foramen - round or oval
opening through a bone
Dense outer layer looks smooth and solid to naked eye.
Compact Bone
A honeycomb of small needle-like or flat pieces called trabeculae (little beams)
Spongy Bone
Marrow cavity - Contains fat (yellow marrow) Called yellow bone marrow cavity
Medullary Cavity
Tough sheath of dense irregular connective tissue around the outer surface of the bone
Periosteum
Lay down the ground substance that creates new bone. Bone builders
Osteoblasts
Maintains matrix by breaking down bone. Bone destroyers
Osteoclasts
Secures the periosteum to underlying bone
Sharpey's Fibers
A layer in an osteon of bone matrix
Lamella
Central core running through the center of each osteon
Haversian Canal
Canals that lie at right angles to the long axis of the bone, connecting the vascular and nerve supplies of the periosteum to the cental canal
Volkmann's canal
Internal bone surfaces covered with delicate connec tissue membrane - covers the trabeculae and lines canals of compact bone
Endosteum
The spongy bone of a flat bone
diploe
Fill the gaps between osteons
interstitial lamallae
Just deep to the periosteum - extends around the entire circmference of the diaphysis- resists twisting of bone
Circumferential lamellae
Osteoblasts- bone forming
Osteocytes- mature bone cells
Osteoclasts-cells that destroy
Osteoid- unmineralized matrix made of proteoglycans, glycoproteins, and collegan
Organic components of bone
Hydroxyapatities, or mineral salts, 65% of bone by mass - mainly calcium phosphates - responsible bone hardness
Inorganic components of bone
the process of bone tissue formation- form embryo skel. - bone growth until adult - bone thickness remodeling, repair
Osteogenesis & ossification
bone develops from a fibrous membrane- flat bones of skull and clavical
Intramembranous ossification
Uses hyaline cart "bones" as models for bone constr- requires breakdown of hyaline cart.
Endochondral ossification
bone formed by intramembranous ossification
membrane bone
