What is the difference between intramembranous ossification and endochondral ossification?
|
Intramembranous ossification does not require cartilage to begin growth
|
|
Which bones grow by intramembranous ossification?
|
Flat bones (i.e. skull, turtle plastron)
|
|
Where are mesenchymal cells derived from?
|
Neural crest
|
|
What do the mesenchymal cells differentiate into?
|
Capillaries and osteoblasts
|
|
What do osteoblasts secrete?
|
Collagen-proteoglycan matrix that calcium salts bind to
|
|
What happens when osteoblasts get trapped in calcium matrix?
|
They turn into osteocytes
|
|
How do layers of calcified bones continue to form?
|
Bony spicules radiate out from the region where ossification began. Region of calcified spicules becomes surrounded by compact mesenchymal cells that form the periosteum. The cells on the inner surface of the periosteum also become osteoblasts and deposit osteoid matrix parallel to that of the existing spicules
