Term
Functions of Bone:
Definition
Skeletel support, protect vital organs, house marrow, store minerals
Term
Two types of bones, macroscopically
Definition
Compact, Cancellous
Term
Parts of a typical long bone
Definition
diaphysis, medullary, physis, metaphysis
Term
epiphyses
Definition
ends of bone covered by hyaline cartilage
Term
diaphysis
Definition
shaft of bone
Term
medullary
Definition
marrow cavity
Term
metaphysis
Definition
new bone between diaphysis and epiphysis
Term
first cell to develop from osteoprogenitor
Definition
osteoblast
Term
location of osteoblast
Definition
bond surface, resembling epithelial layer
Term
osteoid
Definition
matrix closest to osteoblasts, not yet calcified, collagen rich.
Term
osteocytes
Definition
mature bone cells. maintain extracellular matrix.
Term
osteoclast
Definition
multinucleate giant cells involved in resorption.
Term
extracellular matrix: 2 components
Definition
organic, inorganic
Term
organic matrix
Definition
synthesized by osteoblasts and cytes; collage type I and ground substance.
Term
Inorganic matrix
Definition
responsible for rigidity of bone. Calcium, phosphate, etc.
Term
Haversian system
Definition
complex of concentric lamellae (aka osteon)
Term
canaliculi
Definition
tiny canals radiating from each lacuna, serve as channels for nutrient transport
Term
Structure of Compact bone
Definition
numerus osteons between outer and inner circumferential lamellae
Term
Volkman's canals
Definition
Term
Structure of Cancellous bone:
Definition
anastomosing spicules, trabeculae, thin plates of osseous bone. No recognizabel Haversian systems.
Term
periosteum
Definition
connective tissue membrane; outer fibrous layer and inner celullar layer
Term
Is there periosteum at the articular surfaces of bones?
Definition
No.
Term
endosteum
Definition
lines bone marrow spaces and trabeculae of cancellous bone. Single layer of cells - osteoprogenitors, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and connective tissue
Term
intramembranous ossification
Definition
bone forms directly from mesenchymal connective tissue
Term
endochondral ossification
Definition
bone forms indirectly, via a cartilage model
Term
osteoid
Definition
non-calcified pre-osseous tissue
Term
the frontal and parietal bones in the skull develop by:
Definition
Intramembranous ossification
Term
primary bone is aka:
Definition
immature, woven bone
Term
primary bone is characterized by:
Definition
random deposition of fine collagen fibers, lower mineral content, high osteocytes.
Term
secondary bone is aka:
Definition
mature, lamellar bone
Term
secondary bone is characterized by:
Definition
lamellae between rows of lacunae, organized into Haversian systems
Term
the periosteal bud is composed of
Definition
blood vessels from the periosteum, mesenchymal cells all invading the degenerating cartilage
Term
the primary center of ossification is established when
Definition
the periosteal bud reaches the degenerating midsection of the cartilage model
Term
primary spongiosa
Definition
bone trabeculae with calcified cartilage cores
Term
secondary spongiosa
Definition
cartilage cores have been replaced by lamellar bone
Term
zone of proliferation
Definition
chondrocytes form columns of stacked cells parallel to long axis of bone
Term
zone of hypertrophy
Definition
large chondrocytes, matrix reduced to thin septa between chondrocytes
Term
zone of calcification
Definition
chondrocytes die, capillaries and CT invade lacunae at base of cell columns
Term
zone of ossification
Definition
osteoblasts form, deposit bone on calcified cartilage
Term
osteoclasts are acidophilic or basophilic? Why?
Definition
acidophilic; abundant lysosomes, Golgi, mitochondria
Term
osteoclasts secrete:
Definition
acid phosphates, collagenase, other enzymes
Term
a resorption lacuna is aka
Definition
Howship's Lacuna
Term
bone has more or less GAG than cartilage?
Definition
less.
Term
during intramembranous ossification, the perichondrium becomes the
Definition
periosteum
Term
during primary ossification, calcified cartilage appears _________ and primary bone appears __________
Definition
basophilic, acidophilic
Term
during endochondral ossification, the process of ossification spreads toward the _________ of the future bone.
Definition
epiphysis
Term
secondary centers of ossification appear when?
Definition
around the time of birth
Term
why are there no isogenous groups in bone?
Definition
the hard matrix does not allow for interstital growth.
Term
what is the brush border of an osteoclast?
Definition
Term
waht are the two purposes of bone resporption?
Definition
remodelling, Ca++ homeostasis
Term
what do haversian canals contain?
Definition
capillaries, lympatics, nerves
Term
what holds adjacednt osteons together?
Definition
cementing substance
