This structure of a long bone consists of a wide part at each end, is mostly spongy (cancellous) bone, and is covered with compact bone (cortex). |
|

|
|
Term
This structure of a long bone is the shaft. It is a heavy wall of compact/dense bone. Its central space is called medullary (marrow) cavity. |

Bone contains which 4 types of cells? |
|
Definition
1) Osteocytes
2) Osteoblasts
3) Osteoprogenitor cells
4) Osteoclasts |
|
|
Term
These are mature bone cells that maintain the bone matrix. They live in lacunae and are between the layers(lamellae) of the matrix. |

Definition
|
|
Term
What are the two major functions of osteocytes? |
|
Definition
1) To maintain protein and mineral content of matrix
2) To help repair damaged bone |
|
|
Term
These are immature bone cells that secrete matrix compounds (osteogenesis). When these are surrounded by bone, they become osteocytes. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
These are mesenchymal stem cells that divide to produce osteoblasts. They are located in the endosteum and assist in fracture repair. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
These giant, multinucleate cells secrete acids and protein-digesting enzymes. They dissolve bone matrix and release stored minerals (osteolysis). |
