Rigid form of connective tissue in which the extracellular matrix is impegnated with inorganic salts, mainly calcium phosphate and carbonate that provides hardness. |
Bone |
|
Hard dense material that apears to have uniforn smooth texture with no obvious spaces in it. |
Compact bone |
|
Entire outer surface of bone is covered by a membrane calked |
Periosteum |
|
Wall of the marrow cavity is lined by a membrane called |
Endosteum |
|
At the bone ends , marrow is ___in color |
Red |
|
In shaft of an adult, the marrow is |
Yellow |
|
In bones of fetus or of a young child, the entire bone marrow is |
Red |
|
Only parts of bone surface devoid of peiosteum are those that are covered with ____ |
Articular cartilage |
|
Periosteun consist of 2 layers which are |
Outer- fibrous Inner- cellular |
|
In young bones inner layer of periosteum is called |
Osteogenic layer |
|
Provides medium through which muscles, tendons, ligaments are attached to bone |
Peiosteum |
|
Because of blood vessels passing periosteun into bone, periosteum performs____ function |
Nutritive |
|
Due to presence of ____ cells in its deeper layer periosteum can form when bone is required |
Osteoprogenitor cells |
|
Aka limiting membrane, prevents bone tissue from spilling out into neighboring tissues |
Fibrous layer of periosteum |
|
Bone projections frequently seeb on bones of old persons. |
Exostoses |
|
Mature bone cells |
Osteocytes |
|
Bone producing cells |
Osteoblast |
|
Bone removing cells |
Osteoclast |
|
From which osteoblasts and osteocytes are derived |
Osteoprogenitor cells |
|
Stem cells of mesenchymal origin that can proliferate and convert themselves into osteoblasts whenever there is a need for bone formation. |
Osteoprogenitor cells |
|
Lines growing surfaces of bone, sometimes giving an epithelium-like appearance |
Osteoblasts |
|
Responsible for laying down the organic matrix of bone |
Osteoblast |
|
Substance responsible for calcification of matrix |
Alkaline phosphatase |
|
Cells present in greatest numbers in young bone |
Osteocytes |
|
Functions of osteocytes: |
-Maintain integrity of lacunae and canaliculi and thus keep open channels for diffusion of nutrition through bone -play role in removal or deposition of matrix and of calcium when required |
|
At sites of bone resorption the surface of an osteoclast shows many folds that are described as a |
ruffled membrane |
|
Removal of bone by osteoclasts involves |
1) dimineralisation 2) removal of matrix |
|
Bone removal can be stimulated by |
Factors secreted by -Osteoblast - macrophages -lymphocytes -PTH |
|
Consists of glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans and water |
Ground substance |
|
Collagen fibers of bone are synthesized by |
osteoblasts |
|
Term applied to the mixture of organic ground substance and collagen fibers before it is mineralized |
Osteoid |
|
Needle shaped crystal that contribute to lamellar appearance of bone |
hydroxyapatite |
|
Thin plate of bone consisting of collagen fibers and mineral salts that are deposited in a gelatinous ground substance. |
Lamellar bone |
|
Fine canals that communicate with those from other lacunae |
Canaliculi |
|
Newly formed bone does not have lamellar structure T or F |
True |
|
Interlacing of fiber bundles |
Woven bone |
|
Meshwork of boney plates or rods |
