Calcium phosphate |
2/3 of the weight of the bone |
|
Osteocytes |
Mature bone cells, maintain and monitor the protein and mineral content |
|
Osteoblasts |
Cuboidal, single layer on the inner or outer surfaces of a bone, responsible for the production of new bone osteogenesis. Always producing matrix that quickly binds minerals. |
|
Osteo progenitor cells |
Flattened or squamous shaped stem cells found in numerous areas including inner most layer of the periosteum and in the Endosteum lining the medullary cavities can divide to produce daughter cells that differentiate into osteoblasts |
|
Osteoclast |
Large multi nucleate cells found at sites where bone is being removed erosion process where acids produced involving the exocytosis of lysosomes dissolve the bony matrix and release amino acids and the stored calcium and phosphate equals osteolysis. Always removing matrix and releasing minerals. |
|
Osteolysis |
Increases the calcium and phosphate concentrations in body fluids |
|
Compact bone |
Relatively dense and solid. Also known as the cylindrical osteon or haversion system. Forms walls. |
|
Spongy bone |
Forms an open network of struts and plates |
|
What's the difference between spongy bone and compact bone? |
The arrangement of spongy bone into parallel struts or sick branching plates called trabeculae and much lighter than compact bone. Spongy bone is found wherever bones aren't stressed heavily or where stresses arrive from many directions. |
|
What is the outer surface of a bone covered in? |
Periosteum. it isolates and protects the bone from surrounding tissues |
|
Ossification |
The process of replacing other tissues with bone |
|
Calcification |
The deposition of calcium salts within a tissue. |
|
Ossification versus calcification |
Any tissue can be calcified but only ossification results in the formation of bone |
|
Intramembranous ossification |
Bone develops to form mesenchymal or fibrous connective tissue. For example clavicle, mandible, flat bones of the face and skull |
|
