Term
3 types of joints
Definition
fibrous
cartilaginous
synovial
Term
3 classifications of joints
Definition
synthrosis
amphiarthrosis
diarthrosis
Term
fibrous joints
Definition
little to no movement
3 types: sutures, syndesmosis, gomphosis
Term
suture
Definition
fibrous joint that unite bones of skull
synarthrosis
ex. sutures in skull
Term
syndesmosis
Definition
fibrous joint in which the distance between articulating bones and the amount of dense fibrous connective
tissue is greater than in a suture
amphiarthrosis
ex. between tibia and fibula
Term
gomphosis
Definition
fibrous joint in which a cone-shaped peg fits into a socket
synarthrosis
ex. teeth
Term
cartilaginous joints
Definition
little to no movement
2 types: synchondrosis, symphysis
Term
synchondrosis
Definition
cartilaginous joint in which connecting material is HYALINE CARTILAGE
synarthrosis
ex. epiphyseal plate
Term
symphysis
Definition
cartilaginous joint in which ends of the articulating bones are covered with hyaline cartilage
ex. pubic bone
Term
synovial joints
Definition
includes a synovial cavity
includes: articular cartilage, articular capsule
Term
articular cartilage
Definition
part of synovial joint
hyaline cartilage that coveres the ends of bones
Term
articular capsule
Definition
part of synovial joints
surrounds the synovial joint, covers teh synovial cavity and unites teh articulating bones
2 layers: fibrous capsule, synovial membrane
Term
fibrous capsule
Definition
outer layer of articular capsule of synovial joints
attaches to the periosteum of articulating bones
Term
synovial membrane
Definition
inner layer of articular capsule of synovial joints
fatty pads of joints, secretes synovial fluid
Term
types of synovial joints
Definition
planar
hinge
pivot
condyloid
saddle
ball-and-socket
Term
planar joint
Definition
synovial joint
flat/slightly curved
permit GLIDING
ex. carpals and tarsals
Term
hinge joints
Definition
permits hinge-like movements
ex. knee, elbow, ankle
Term
pivot joints
Definition
allows rotation around its own longitudinal axis
ex. neck/head to nod no, ulna and radius
Term
condyloid joint
Definition
oval shaped projection fits into oval shaped depression
ex. finger bones
Term
saddle joint
Definition
articular surface of one and bone and another bone are saddle-shaped
ex. thumb
Term
ball-and-socket joint
Definition
ball-like surface fits into cup-like depression
ex. hips and shoulders
Term
functions of skeletal system
Definition
support
protection
assising in movement
mineral homeostasis
production of blood cells
bone marrow storage
Term
types of boens
Definition
long
short
irregular
flat
sesamoid
Term
diaphysis
Definition
main shaft/body of bone
Term
epiphysis
Definition
ends of bone
Term
metaphysis
Definition
growing parts of the bone that connect the epiphysis and diaphysis
contains epiphyseal plate
Term
articular cartilage
Definition
hyaline cartilage that covers part of epiphysis
Term
periosteum
Definition
outer surface of bone not covered by articular cartilage
Term
medullary cavity
Definition
marrow cavity inside bone that contains marrow
Term
endosteum
Definition
layer that lines the medullary cavity
Term
calcification
Definition
osteogenic cells --> osteoblasts --> osteocytes
and then osteoclasts
Term
osteogenic cells
Definition
unspecialized stem cells
only bones that undergo cell division
Term
osteoblasts
Definition
bone-building cells
build/secrete extracellular matrix of bones
do not udnergo cell division
Term
osteocytes
Definition
mature bone cells
maintain metabolism
do not undergo cell division
Term
osteoclasts
Definition
huge cells of fused white blood cells that function in resorption and breakdown of boen matrix
Term
haversian systems
Definition
"osteons"
contain haversian canals, concentric lammellae, lacunae, and canaliculi
Term
haversian canal
Definition
a whole circle thing of a bone that contains blood vessels, nerves, lymphatic vessels
Term
concentric lamellae
Definition
rings of hard, calcified extracellular matrix
Term
lacunae
Definition
spaces between concentric lamellae that contain osteocytes
Term
canaliculi
Definition
radiates in all directions from teh lacunae,filled with extracellular matrix
Term
volkmann's canal
Definition
(perforating canals) canals containing blood/hymphatic vessels, and nerves from the periosteum penetrating compact bone
Term
trabeculae
Definition
spongy bone tissue that does not contain osteons
Term
2 types of bone formation
Definition
intramembranous
endochondrial
Term
intramembranous ossification
Definition
soft spots in a baby's head become bone
Term
endochondrial ossification
Definition
most common form of ossification in body
bone replaces cartilage
Term
parathyroid hormone
Definition
most important hormone that regulates Ca2+
Term
axial skeleton
Definition
main torso part of skeleton + skull
Term
appendicular skeleton
Definition
rest of skeleton, including scapula + limbs + illium
Term
coronal suture
Definition
unites frontal and parietal bones
Term
sagittal suture
Definition
unites the 2 parietal bones
Term
lambdoid suture
Definition
unites parietal and occipital bones
Term
squamous suture
Definition
unites parietal and temporal bones
