Name the layers inside and out of the skeletal cartilage?
Chondrocytes inside lacunae, then ECM, then perichondrium(dense Irreg. ct) vascular , with more chondrocytes.
What are the ways that skeletal cartilage grow?
Appositionally, growing from outside
Interstitionally, growth from inside.
Is the perichondrium vascular or avascular
Vascular
What makes the ECM in the skeletal cartilage?
Chondrocytes.
Cartilage continues growth all our life.
T/F
False. Stops in adolescence, and becomes more calcified and brittle as we age.
Where is hyaline cartilage located?
In surfaces of articulations, 2 bones come together. Femur to saccral, Ribtosternum, vertebrae,under meniscus, elbows tarsals, carpal
What is hyaline cartilage's function?
For smooth movement.
Where is elastic cartilage located?
Epiglottis, Ear very pliable for these areas
Where is Fibrocartilage located?
Vertebrae, knees, pubic symphysis. Very strong and compressible. Has to bear a lot of weight.
What are the 2 ways we classify bones.
By their position, and by their shape.
What makes the bones go brittle?
Calcium salts.
Hyaline cartilage is also known as...?
Articular cartilage
Where are the meniscus (fibrocartilage) located in relation to hyaline cartilage?
Above the hyaline and in the knee.
How many bones are there?
206 bones in the body
What parts are included in the axial skeleton?
head to tail: skull, vertebral column, rib cage and sacrum. These are bones involved in protection and support
What bones make up the appendicular skeleton?
Limbs (rt & left)arms & legs; Girdles (which is where appendicular & axial connect) shoulder, pelvic. Purpose for append. skel is loc. & manipulation
Describe the long bone
2 heads: proximal and distal, and shaft. All the bones of the limbs, except the patella, carpals and tarsals.
Describe the short bones
cube-shaped, patella, carpals and tarsals: (exceptions from the long bone group)
Describe the flat bones
found in axial skeleton: sternum, skull, ribs and scapula
Irregular bones
vertebrae, hip bones.
What are the 5 functions of bones?
Support (wt.),Protection(lungs, brn, spin. cord),Movement(levers formus -cles toact),Mineral Stor(bons alive!,calc, phosph),Hematopoiesis Makes blood cels (ie Langerhans)
What do you call it when you look at the bone and further inspect it's structure?
Gross anatomy and markings
In the anatomy of the bone, what are the terms referring to the outside
Compact Bone or Lamellar bone: layered, dense and has osteon.
In the anatomy of the bone, what are the terms referring to the inside of the bone
Spongy bone or cancellous bone, honeycomb,in prox.&distal heads, spongy bone.Bone form. w/open spaces of trabiculae; red bone mrw
What are the 3 main structure components of the long bone?
Diaphysis, Epiphyses, and Membranes.
What is the Diaphysis in the long bone?
It is the tubular shaft that forms the long axis of the bone composed of thick collar, compact bone and the medullary cavity.
What are the epiphyses of the long bone?
They are the bone ends, usually more expanded round than the diaphyses. Outside is the compact bone, inside is spongy bone, outside covered w/cart.
What is in the membrane part of the long bone?
Periosteum: double membraned: outer=fibrous dense irreg. ct,& inner Osteogeneic layr: w/osteoblasts that build bone; osteoclastsdestroy bone,then there's endosteum
What does it mean to be osteogenic?
Building bone and breaking down bone.
T/F The delicate connective tissue, 2nd membrane endosteum is found in trabiculae?
True it is the inside coating of the trabiculae or spongy bone. It is osteogenic, and vascular.
What it the epiphyseal line?
Remnant of epiphyseal plate (disc of hyaline cartilage, grows during childhd to lengthen the bone), Replace w/ spongy bone when we stop growth.
What are the distinctions of short, irregular, and flat bones?
Outer part is compact bone, inner is spongy bone (diploe), has no shaft, no medullary cavity, but does have marrow in trabicullary area, sandwich
What tissue is bone marrow made from?
Hematopoietic.
What are the distinctions of red bone marrow?
Found in trebicullar cavities (spongy bone) red cells, not much fat, sternum hip area.
What are the distinctions of yellow bone marrow?
Found in medullary cavity; yellow cuz of fat content.
What is the histology of compact bone?
The structural and functional unit = osteon aka Haversian system, lamellated areas are interlaced w/collagen fibers which makes it Give
What 2 things makes are bones break as we get older?
Calcium salts and less collagen.
How does an osteon get its main blood source?
Through the Haversian (Central) Canal
Where do lacunae live?
Bone and cartilage.
What are the spider-looking structures found in the lamellated layers of bone?
Osteocytes. They have tentacle projections that reach through the canaliculi and connect lacunae to each other and to the central canal.
Describe the components and function of the central canal.
Artery with capillaries, veins and nerve fibers. Has a nutrient foramen that brings blood vessels and connects to the central canal.
Where do osteocytes live?
In lacunae between rings of lamella. Osteocytes hold hands through a gap junction that allows a passage of nutrients.
Describe the bone chemistry
Inorganic:65% of matrix, Ca+salts & min. salts; Organic:living, cells osteoblasts& osteoclasts, 35% of ECM osteoid ground sub, & fibers
