|
|
Word Stem

|
|
Bone as a tissue. (Osseous)=
What are Osteogenic cells? |
bone
osteogenic cells are stem cells that become osteoblasts. |
|
Osteoblasts do what?
|
secrete organic bone matrix which is called "osteoid"
|
|
Word Stem
Osteoid= |
bone like
|
|
Osteoblasts surround themselves with organic bone matrix and become?
|
Osteocytes
|
|
Osteocytes are?
|
adult/mature bone cells surrounded by a lacuna.
|
|
Osteoclasts do what?
|
dissolve existing bone w/ HCl & acid phosphatase a bone eating enzyme.
|
|
Osteoclasts come from?
|
Macrophages/Monocytes
|
|
Organic bone matrix is made up of?
|
dense collagen & ground substance, which offers resistance to breakage.
|
|
Inorganic bone matrix is made up of?
|
85% Calcium & Phosphate, which travel in the blood and crystallize into hydroxyapatite crystals on the collagen. (This makes bones hard.)
|
|
What keeps blood from crystallizing?
|
Fetuin A & B inhibit the Calcium & Phosphate from crystallizing in the blood.
|
|
Word Stem
Fetuin= |
fetus
|
|
Fetuin inhibitor
|
Osteoblasts inhibit Fetuin in bone so the calcium & phosphate can crystallize into hydroxyapitite.
|
|
Bone Formation:
Ossification is? |
replacing existing tissue with bone.
|
|
Calcification is?
|
Depositing Calcium minerals in bone.
|
|

|
Frontal, 2 Parietal bones, Occipital, Sphenoid, Ethmoid, & 2 Temporal bones.
|
|

|
Skull, vertebral column, ribs & sternum.
|
|
