epiphysealplate

where is the metaphysis located

Betweenepiphysis and diaphysis

what is a metaphysis called when located in an adult

epiphyseal line

what is the epiphyseal line

Thinlayer of compact bone

what is the epiphyseal plate

Thinlayers of hyaline cartilage that allow for lengthwise growth of diaphysis

What is articular cartilage

Hyalinecartilage covering epiphysis which reduces friction and absorbs shock

What is the Medullary cavity

space in diaphysis

What does the medullary cavity contain in children

red bone marrow

What does the medullary cavity contain in adults

yellow bone marrow

The outer covering of bone is the what

periosteum

what 2 layers make up the periosteum

fibrous layer and cellular layer

What does the fibrous layer of the periosteum do

anchorsblood vessels and nerves

what does the cellular layer of the periosteum do

growth and repair

what makes up the cellular layer of the periosteum

bone cells

What is the endosteum

the inner covering of bone

what makes up the endosteum

bone cells for growth and repair

What are the 4 types of bone cells

1. Osteoprogenitors 2. Osteoblasts 3. Osteocytes 4. Osteoclasts

what are Osteoprogenitors

Stemcell precursors to osteoblasts

where are Osteoprogenitors located

endosteum and periosteum

what is osteoid

semisolidbone matrix

what do osteocytes do

Maintainbone matrix, communication

what are osteoclasts

Largemultinucleate phagocytic cells that help with bone reabsorbtion

how do osteoclasts start bone reabsorbtion

HCl is secreted which dissolves minerals and releases calcium and phosphate

what are bone salts made out of

Calciumphosphate and calcium hydroxide (Hydroxyapatite)

what is the structure of spongy bone

trabeculae-openlattice narrow plates

what are osteons composed of
