Term
Where do chondrocytes live in?
Definition
a lake also called a lacunae.
Term
There are 2 types of matrix in cartilage- what are they are their color differentiations?
Definition
Territorial matrix- stains lighter

Interterritorial matrix- stains darker

Term
True or False? There are vessels and nerves that run through cartilage.
Definition
FALSE! no vessels or nerves are present in cartilage.
Term
Does pain occur in joint from cartilage?
Definition
Nope, because it is not innervated.
Term
What are the 2 types of growth in cartilage? What's the difference?
Definition
Apposistional: growth from outside

Intersitial: growth from within

Term
Isogenous groups occur in intersitial growth when multiple cells cluster together- does this happen in bone cell growth?
Definition
No. There is only one cell per one lecunae in bone cell growth.
Term
What is the perichondrium of cartilage?
Definition
the outer layer. A source of cartilage stem cells.
Term
What type of cartilage does not have perichondrium?
Definition
articular cartilage.
Term
What are the 3 types of cartilage?
Definition
Hyaline (glassy), Elastic and Fibrocartilage
Term
What parts of the body is hyaline cartilage found?
Definition
In the fetal skeleton

On articular surfaces of bone

In the respiratory tree

Term
Where in the body is elastic cartilage found?
Definition
In the Ear.
Term
An elastic stain is required to distinguish between what 2 types of cartilage?
Definition
Hyaline vs. Elastic.
Term
What color does an elastic stain elastic cartilage?
Definition
brown.
Term
Where in the body is fibrocartilage found?
Definition
Intervertebral disks, menisci of the stifle joint and attachments to bone- tendons and ligaments.
Term
Osteoblasts do what to bone?
Definition
They Build Bone those osteoBlasts do!
Term
What d osteoblasts secrete which then mineralizes?
Definition
osteoid.
Term
Osteocytes live where in the bone.
Definition
Osteocytes live WITHIN the bone.
Term
OsteoClasts Cut bone, thus remove bone. When this occurs, what is formed in the bone?
Definition
a Howship's lacunae or depression in bone formed by the osteoclasts.
Term
What colors do the matrix in collagen of bone appear? And what is required to see the collagen in bone?
Definition
Matrix appears red

Collagen appears yellow but polarized light is required.

Term
What type of organization in bone is ONLY in young animals or in immature bone?
Definition
Woven Bone which has haphazardly arranged collagen fibers.
Term
Lamellar bone occurs in mature bone and has what orientation of its collagen fibers?
Definition
Parallel collagen fibers, which makes lamellar bone stronger than woven bone.
Term
Where are haversian canals located in relation to osteons?
Definition
Haversian canals are located at the center of osteons and blood vessels and nerves run through these canals.
Term
Compact bone is solid bone thus it has minimal what?
Definition
bone marrow.
Term
What configuration of bone has bone marrow between trabeculae, and don't call it spongy!?
Definition
Cancellous bone.
Term
What are the 2 bony envelopes: on outside and one inside?
Definition
Periosteum- outer

Endosteum- inner

Term
What are the 3 "steps" to endochondral ossification?
Definition
Cartilage grows

mineralizes

finally it ossifies

Term
Do a physis have longitudinal or horizontal growth?
Definition
Longitudinal growth.
Term
What is the first layer of the physis?
Definition
Resting chondrocytes.
Term
What is the layer of a physis called where condrocytes are stacked tightly on top of each other?
Definition
proliferating condrocytes.
Term
Where is the physis most weak? (what layer?)
Definition
The hypertrophied chondrocyte layer.
Term
What comprises primary spongiosa (2 layers of the physis)?
Definition
Calcified cartilage and woven bone.
Term
What are the 2 types of bone formation?
Definition
endochondral ossification

intramembranous ossification

Term
Intramembranous ossification does not involve cartilage, what does is involve (what does the bone form from)?
Definition
condensed mesenchymal cells.

osteoprogenitor cells to osteoblasts.

Term
What bones in the body have intramembranous ossification?
Definition
Flat bones. like in the skull.
Term
What are the 3 types of joints?
Definition
Synarthroses

Amphiarthroses

Diarthroses

Term
Synarthroses joints occur where in the body?
Definition
In he sutures of the skull and do NOT move!
Term
Where do amphiarthroses joints occur?
Definition
In intervertebral disks.
Term
Where do diarthroses (synovial) joints occur?
Definition
At the ends of bones covered by hyaline cartilage. Synovial membrane lines the inside of the joint and synoviocytes produce synovial fluid.
Term
What does synovial fluid provide for the joint?
Definition
lubricates the joint and provides nutrients to the cartilage.
