Above and to the outside |
|
Superomedial |
Above and toward the midline or inside. |
|
Deep |
Beneath or below the surface |
|
Sipergicial |
Near the surface. Used to describe relative depth or location of muscles or tissue. |
|
Pronr |
Stomach lying |
|
Anteromedial |
In front and toward the inner side or midline. |
|
Supine |
Lying Face upward position |
|
Dprsal |
Relating to the back. Being or located near on or toward the back posterior part or upper surface of. |
|
Ventral |
Relating to the belly or abdomen on or toward the front anterior part of |
|
Skeletal functions |
Protection, support posture, movement, mineral storage, hemopoiesis(blood cell formation) |
|
Long bones |
Humerus, fibula |
|
Short bones. |
Carpals, tarsals |
|
Flat bones |
Skull, scapula |
|
Irregular bones |
Pelvis, ethmoid, ear ossicles |
|
Sesamoid bones |
Patella |
|
Diaphysis |
Long cylindrical shaft |
|
Anteroposterior |
Relating to both front and rear |
|
Cortex |
Hard, dense compact bone forming walls of diaphysis. |
|
Periosteum |
Dense fibrous membrane covering outer surfaces of diaphysis |
|
Endosteum |
Fibrous membrane that lines the inside of the cortex |
|
Medullary cavity |
Between walls if diaphysis, containing yellow or fatty marrow. |
|
Articular cartilage |
Covering the epiphysis to provide cushioning effect and reduce friction |
|
Spongy bone |
Contains red bone marrow |
|
Endochondral bones |
Develop from hyaline cartilage Hyaline cartilage masses at embryonic stage Cartilaginous |
|
Endochondrial ossification |
1-fetal hyaline cartilage model develops 2-cartilage calcifies and a periosteal bone collar forms around diaphysis. 3-primary ossification center forms in the diaphysis 4-secondary ossification centers form in epiphysis 5-bone replaces cartilage except the articular cartilage and epiphyseal plates. 6-epiphyseal plates ossify and form epiphyseal lines |
|
Bone growth |
Internal layer of periosteum builds new concentric layers on old layers Simultaneously bone around sides of the medullary cavity is re absorbed so that diameter is continually increased. |
|
Osteoblasts |
Cells that form new bone |
|
Anterior |
In front or in the front part |
|
Osteoclasts |
Cells that resorb old bone |
|
Osteoprogenitor cells. |
Located in bone marrow. |
