Term
|
Definition
[image] 1. Diaphysis - shaft - long & tubular & Contains marrow (fat & yellow bone marrow).
2. Epiphyses - expanded area found at each end of bone. * Spongy bone in centre. Contains growth plates for bone * Covered with thin layer of hydraline cartilage.
3. Periosteum (membranes) - superficial layer of compact bone is wrapped by sheath of connective tissue; (1) isolates bones of surrounding tissue (2) provide a route for blood / nerves (3) plays role in bone growth / repair |

Term
How does bone remodelling occur? |
|
Definition
* Replacement of cartilage with bone 1.Cartilage increases in size 2.Blood vessels grow around edge of cartilage 3.Blood vessels penetrate cartilage & invade central (spongy) region 4. Remodelling occurs as growth continues 5. Capillaries & osteoblast migrate into epiphyses (ossification) 6.Epiphysis fills with spongy bone 7.16 weeks foetus bones are identified 8.Puberty |

|
Definition
[image] * Unlike the axial skeleton, the appendicular skeleton is unfused. This allows for a much greater range of motion. 1.Pectorial Girdle (clavicle scapula)* 2.Pelvic Girdle 3.Humerus * 4.Radius * 5.Ulna * 6.Carpel * 7.Metacarpal * 8.Phalanges * 9.Femur 10.Patella 11.Tibia 12.Fibula 13.Tarsal 14.Metatarsal |
