what are the structures of a bone?
diaphysis (shaft or body)
epiphysis (proximal and distal shaft)
metaphysics (between diaphysis and epiphysis)
articular cartilage (covering bone articulation)
medullary cavity (hollow space)
periosteum (surrounds the external bone shaft)
endosperm (internal lining of bone)
266
what determines a bone's hardness vs its flexibility?
hardness = crystallized inorganic mineral salts
flexibility = collagen fibres and other organic molecules
267
what happens to a bone when soaking it in acidic solutions?
dissolves its mineral salts and bone will become rubber and flexible
268
what is the role of osteoprogenitor cells?
unspecialized cells
only bone undergoes cell division
269
what is the role of osteoblast cells?
bone building cells
initiates calcification
270
what is the role of osteocytes?
cells that maintain tissue or mature bone cells
271
what is the role of osteoclasts?
break down the extracellular matrix
272
what is the difference in compact vs spongy bone?
compact = few spaces and is the strongest form of bone tissue
protection, support, and resist stress of movement and weight
spongy = does not contain osteons
light and reduces the overall weight of the bone
named for its appearance not texture
273
is bone richly supplied with blood?
yes
274
what artery enters the diaphysis though many perforating canals?
periosteal arteries
275
where do the nutrient ratios pass through?
nutrient foramen
276
what are the main veins of the bones?
nutrient veins
epiphyseal and metaphyseal
periosteal
277
which part of the bone is rich with nerves?
periosteum
278
what is ossification?
bone formation
osteogenesis
279
what are the four areas of bone formation?
embryo and fetus
infancy and adolescence
remodelling of bone
fracture of bone
280
when is fetal development does ossification start?
6th week
281
what is the difference between endochondral and intramembranous ossification?
endochondral = replacement of cartilage by bone
intramembranous =bone forms directly within mesenchyme arranged in sheet-like layers
282
what events happen for the bone to grow in length?
interstitial growth of cartilage on the epiphyseal side of the plate
replacement of cartilage on diaphysral side of the plate
283
what I the epiphyseal growth plate?
layer of hyaline cartilage in the metaphysics of a growing bone
allows bone to grow in length
284
what four distinct zones are in the epiphyseall?
zone of resting cartilage
zone of proliferating cartilage
zone of hypertrophic cartilage
zone of calcified cartilage
285
is the destruction of bone slower on the inside or outside?
inside
286
what is bone remodelling?
replacement of old bone tissue by new bone tissue
can also remove injured bone
287
what is bone resorption?
results in the destruction of bone extracellular matrix, removal of minerals and collagen fibres via osteoclasts
288
what is bone deposition?
relates in formation of bone extracellular matrix via osteoblast
289
are new or old bones more likely to fracture?
new bone
290
what happens when bone is subjected to heavy load?
becomes thicker and stronger then old bone
291
how does bone resorption occur?
several osteoclasts carve out a small tunnel in the old bone and once small area of the bone is resorbed, osteoclast eaves and osteoblast moves to rebuild the bone
292
what can cause a bone disorder?
imbalanced osteoclast and osteoblast
too much tissue formation
thick and heavy bone formation
too much material deposited
too little calcium or tissue
too flexible
293
what is the role of the following:
vit. A
vit. C
vit. D
vit. G and B12
vit. A = stimulates osteoblasts
vit. C = synthesis collagen
vit. D = builds bone assist
vit. G and B12 = synthesis bone proteins
294
what factors determines metabolism of bone?
diet intake of minerals and vitamins and sufficient levels of hormones
295
what is the role of the following:
IGF
hGH
T3 T4
insulin
IGF = stimulates osteoblast
hGH = increased during childhood
T3 T4 = promotes bone growth
insulin = increasing synthesis of bone proteins
296
what do estrogen and androgen do for the bones?
cause dramatic bone growth
297
why does the growth of bones end earlier in women than men?
because of higher levels of estrogen
298
describe the following fractures.
greenstick
impacted
potts
colles
comminuted
open
greenstick = partial fracture
impacted = one end of bone is forcefully driven into other
potts = distal end of lateral leg
colles = distal end of lateral forearm
comminuted = crushed
open = broken skin
299
what are the phases of bone healing?
hematome formation
fibrocartilgionis callus
bony callus
remodel
300
how long does it take for bones to heal in...
children
adolescents
adults
children = 4-6 wks
adolescents = 6-8 wks
adults = 10-18 wks
301
what are the functions of muscle tissue?
produce body movement
stabilizing body position
boring and moving substances
generating heat
302
what are the properties of muscle tissue?
electrical excitability
contractility
extensibility
elasticity
