bone Flashcards
(11 cards)
The process in which bones are formed by osteoblast.
Ossification
The dense connective tissue membranes are replaced by the deposit of inorganic calcium salts, thus forming bone.
Only the bones of the cranium or skull form by this process including the mandible and clavicle.
These membranes are on the top of a baby’s skull as the soft spot or fontanelle.
Intramembranus Ossification
This is the process in which cartilage is the environment in which the bone cells develop (endo = inside, chondro = cartilage).
Endochondal Ossification
BONE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT
BONE ^ CELLS. ECM ^. ^ osteoclast osteoblast Organic. Inorganic (Resporption) (building) (Type 1 collagen) (calcium)
Fontanels - fibrous membranes (soft spots)
BONE CLASSIFICATION
- Long Bones
- Flat bones
- Short bones
- Irregular bones
What are the four bone classification?
Long bones
Flat bones
Short bones
Irregular bones
- they have a shaft with enlarge ends
- **compact bone*8 but has spongy bone at the ends
(All the bones of the limbs, except the patella and the wrist
and ankle bones)
Long bones
thin, flattened, and usually curved
- compact bone sandwiching a layer of spongy bone between them
Ex: bones of the skull, the ribs, and the sternum (breastbone)
flat bones
cube-shaped and contain mostly spongy bone with an outer layer of compact bone
● Ex: bones of the wrist and ankle, Sesamoid bones (patella)
Short bones
irregularly-shaped
● mainly spongy bone with an outer layer of compact bone
Ex: Vertebrae
Irregular bones
