it is the porous bony tissue in middle of bones
51
what is the membrane on the outside of bone called

outer layer is dense irregularCT
inner layer composed of osteoblasts/osteroclasts

hematopoietic tissue in long bones and diploe (skull and hip)
child bones
56

fat containing
in majority of adult bones
found in skull, sternum, ribs, and hips
57
what is the periosterum like layer that lines the medullary cavity and trabeculae
endosteum
58
what is the nutrient foramen on a bone
hole through the periosteum into the diaphysis for nutrient blood vessels and nerves
59
what is appositional bone growth
the increase in the diameter of bones by the addition of bone tissue at the surface of bones
60
what part of the bone builds appositionally to add thick bone matrix and contour it during childhood into adulthood
epiphyseal plates or growth plates
61
where are osteoblasts and cytes found
directly under the periosteum
62
what do osteoblasts do
make osteoid bone matrix (build)
63
where do osteocytes come from
mature osteoblasts after migrating to lacunae
64
what is the osteoid or matrix made of
collagen fibers and ground substance
65
what is considered the inorganic matrix of a bone
osteoclasts and their relationship to calcium and phosphorus
66
what are osteogenitor cells
derived from mesenchyme, differentiate into osteoblasts; stem cells
67
where do osteoclasts come from
derived from monocytes (which are prepubecent macrophages)
68
what is the most important molecule for a teenager's growth and development
parathyroid hormone PTH
69
what runs through the haversian canal
vessels and nerves
70
which direction do volksmans canals run
perpendicular to osteons
71
which is the main canal of BT
haversians canal that is in the center of a haversian system
72
which canal brings blood vessels and nerves from the outside of the bone tissue to inside
volksmans
73
what do canaliculi do
bring stuff into the lamellae and get rid of waste (lamellae are the rings)
74
what are the steps to getting osteocytes nourished
nutrient entrance through the volksmans canal from outside the BT
up through the haversian canal
to the canaliculi
and then the cells relay the nutrients via gap junctions
75
what are the modes of bone formation
intramembranous ossification
endochondral ossificaiton
76
what is intramembranous ossification
ossified fibrous connective tissue; made of fibrous connective tissue initially
found in the cranium (sans base of occipital), clavical (first bone to begin to ossify, but last bone to full ossify)
77
why do we need the connective tissue and cartilage to ossify from
osteroblasts need fiber struts to lay the minerals, collagen, and ground substance and to set up osteocytes
78
how do we make most of our bones
endochondral ossification
79
what does endochondral ossification make up
all bones except for the superior half of the occipital
80
what is endochondral ossification made of and explain bone collar
hyaline cartilage at 8 weeks osteoblasts begin to produce a thin layer of bone around cartilage which is called the bone collar
81
how is the marrow cavity formed in endochondral bones
with calcification, cells in the center of cartilage (pre-bone) become walled off causing their nutrient supply to die creating a cavity
82
what is achondroplasia
it affects endochondral ossification as there isnt eough chondrocytes for bone to be made from leading to less appositional growth (bulking of bone and contouring)
83
how does the anterior fontanel ossify
intramembranous ossification
84
describe the mechanism of intramembranous ossification
fibrous struts layed down and then ossified
85
what is the metopic suture of the skull
present at birth and completely goes away making the frontal bone
86
what is a leading cause of cerebral palsy that happens during birth
forceps crush fontanels
87
how often is cortical bone replaced
every 10 years but slows down overtime
88
how often does trabecullar bone get replaced
3 to 4 years
89
what is wolfs law
bone remodeling happends based on stressors to bone (weight baring exercize)
90
what happens when a bone fractures
damage to blood vessels which can lead to hematomas
fibroblasts lay down fibers to repair the tissue insult leaving a bony callus
91
what diseases are associated with vitamin D deficeincy
ricket in children
osteomalacia in adults
92
what is growth hormone from the anterior pituitary for
necessary for normal growth and development of the skeleton and other tissues
93
what happens if there is hyposecretion of growth hormone
dwarfism
94
what happens if there is hypersecretion of growth hormone
gigantism
95
what do thyroid hormones do
regulate metabolism of most cells including those in bone
96
what does testosterone do
androgens are important for growth in mass and density of bone. necessary to both male and female
97
what is estrogen for
important for growth in length of bone and for bone maintenance. necessary in man and woman
98
what is parathyroid hormone
primary hormone in calcium homeostasis; responds to blood calcium
99
what are the 3 functions of parathyroid hormone
increased vitamin D3 production (without this vitamin calcium is not reabsorbed to any great degree)
increased reabsorbtion of calcium in the kidney
resportion of bone
100
where does calcitonin come from
secreted by the thyroid parafollicular cells (not same as parathyroid glands)
101
what does calcitonin do in children
increases calcium deposited in bone for growth
not normally in adults
102
what is osteoporosis
demineralization of bone
anyone can get it without weight baring exercize
103
as for treatments for osteoporosis what is not considered a safe option (misconception)
HRT (hormone replacement therapy like in postmenopausal women to try to prevent bone loss)
104
why is calcitonin supplements still given to thos with osteroporosis even though it doesnt really work
because they just throw anything at it as there isnt much that can be done
105
where are long bones found
arms, legs, clavical, metacarpals, metatarsals, and phalanges
106
where are flat bones found
sternum, ribs, scapula, craniums
107
where are short bones
carpals and tarsals (boxy shaped)
108
where are irregular bones found
vertebrae and os coxae
109
what are sesamoid bones
bone arrises in middle of other tissue like tendons and ligaments like the knee cap
