Axial Skeleton Flashcards
coronal plane
transverse plane
midsaggital plane
bone marrow biopsy location
at illium of pelvis
cartilage functions
supports ear/airway structure
provides gliding surface for bones
provides model for bones in development
chondroblast
creates cartilege
chondrocyte
cartilege cell
diaphysis
shaft of bone
endochondral ossification
inside of cartilege bone growth
elastic cartilege
ears
epiphysis
end of bone
fibrocartilege
vertebral discs and public region
glands influencing bone growth
ovaries/testes
pitutiary
parathyroid/thyroid
hematopoiesis
protein released by kidneys that stimulates RBC production in red bone marrow
hyaline cartilege
most cartilege
end of bones
is a bone an organ?
yes
mineral storage site
bone
osteoblasts
creates bone
osteoclasts
destroys bone
parietal membrane
on the wall surrounding the cavity the organ is in
patella
sesamoid bone
develops over time
red bone marrow
creates RBC, usually on epipysis of bone
sesamoid bones can develop when
repeated stress across a joint occurs
viseral membrane
on organ
