the shaft/diaphysis is a compact bone that contains what
marrow cavity/medullary cavity
endosteum lines the shaft and is made of what
osteopenic cells and reticular connective tissue
what are the ends/epiphyses
spongy bone covered with a layer of compact bone
joint surface is covered with what
articular cartilage
outer layer of bone is covered with what
periosteum
where do osteogenic cells reside?
endosteum, periosteum, central canals
osteogenic cells arise from______ and give source for ________
fibroblasts, osteoblasts
examples of organic matter
collagen, glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans, glycoproteins
examples of inorganic matter
85% hydroxyapatite
10% calcium carbonate
minerals
osteon?
basic structural unit
-lamellae arranged around central canal holding blood vessel
what are the perforating/volkmann canals
vascular canals perpendicularly joining central canals
spongy bone has what type of bone marrow
red
bone marrow is found where in long and spongy bones
medullary cavity
hemopoietic means
produces blood cells
where is yellow marrow found
long bones of adults
what does intramembranous ossificationc do
produces flat bones of skull and clavicle
where does the primary ossification center form
in center of cartilage model
metaphysis?
cartilagenous material that remains as growth plate b/w medullary cavity and secondary ossification centers
what happens at zone of proliferation layer
chondrocytes multiply forming columns of flat lacunae
what happens at zone of bone decomposition
chondrocytes die and each channel is filled with osteoblasts and blood vessels to form a haversian canal + osteon
bones increase in length by ______growth
interstitial growth
bones increase in width by ______growth
appositional growth
what is minerlization
crystalization process in which ions are removed from blood plasma and deposited in bone tissue
ectopic ossification?
abnormal calcification
ion imbalances: hypocalcemia
deficiency of blood calcium
-less calcium, sodium channels openmore easily exciting neuron
ion imbalances: hypercalcemia
-excessive calcium binding to cell surface makes sodium channels less likely to open, depressing nervous system
calcium phosphate homeostasis depends on...
calcitriol, calcitonin, PTH
hypocalcemia causes ...
carpopedal spasm
another name for activated vitamin d that behaves as a hormone
calcitriol
calcitonin is secreted by...

calcitonin functions...
reduces osteoclast activity by 70%
-increases osteoblasts
parathyroid hormone functions:
-osteoclast multiplication
-calcium resorption
-calcitriol synthesis
pathological fracture
break in a bone weakened by some other disease (bone cancer or osteoporosis)
fracture hematoma
broken vessels form a blood clot
