cartilage

2
Q

what has chondrocytes in its matrix

A

cartilage

3
Q

what functions primarily to support soft tissues and assist in the devel- opment and growth of long bones.

A

cartilage

4
Q

is the most abundant cartilage in the body and it also serves as a temporary skeleton in the fetus until it is replaced by bone.

A

hyaline cartilage

5
Q

Matrix of Hyaline Cartilage has what in it?

A
  • proteoglycans
  • chondrocytes
  • type 2 collagen
6
Q

matrix that is adjacent to chondrocytes is called

A

territorial matrix

7
Q

is a layer of dense, irregular connective tissue that surrounds hyaline cartilage except at articular surfaces.

A

perichondrium

8
Q

what provides the nearest blood supply to the avascular cartilaginous tissue.

A

perichondrium

9
Q

manufacture the cartilage matrix through which nutrients and waste materials pass to and from the cells, respectively.

A

chondroblasts

10
Q

are mature cartilage cells that are embedded within lacunae in the matrix.

A

chondrocytes

11
Q

what has type 2 collagen eslatic fibers and has a present perichondrium?

A

elastic cartilage

12
Q

location of hyaline cartilage

A

end of long bones

nose

trachea

larynx

13
Q

location of elastic cartilage

A

ear
auditary canal
epiglottis

14
Q

location of fibrocartilage

A

iv disc
poobus symph
tendons
meniscus of knee

15
Q

histogenesis of hyaline cartilage happens how

A

interstitial growth

appositional growth

16
Q

results from cell division of preexisting chondrocytes. This type of growth occurs only during the early stages of cartilage formation and in articular car- tilage and the epiphyseal plates of long bones.

A

intersitial growth

17
Q

results from differentiation of chondrogenic cells in the peri- chondrium. This type of growth results in the formation of chondroblasts and/or new chondrocytes, which elaborate a new layer of cartilage matrix at the periphery.

A

appositional growth

18
Q

degeneration of hyaline cartilage happens how

A

chondrocytes undergo hypertrophy ad die, also the matrix calcifies

19
Q

arthritis is an example of

A

degeneration of hyaline cartilage

20
Q

It is a specialized type of connective tissue with a calcified extracellular matrix in which characteristic cells are embedded.

A

Bone

21
Q

functions to protect vital organs, support fleshy structures, and provide a calcium reserve

A

Bone

22
Q

bone matrix consists of

A

inorganic (calcified) portion of bone

organic portion of bone

23
Q

about 65% of dry weight

A

inorganic portion of bone

24
Q

about 35% of dry weight

A

organic portion of bone

25
Q

what is a layer of noncalcified connective tissue covering bone on its external
surfaces, except at synovial articulations and muscle attachments.

A

periosteum

26
Q

what is a thin specialized connective tissue that lines the marrow cavities and supplies osteoprogenitor cells and osteoblasts for bone growth and repair.

A

endosteum

27
Q

These cells are derived from osteoprogenitor cells under the influence of members of the bone morphogenic protein (BMP) family and also transforming growth factor

A

osteoblasts

28
Q

These spindle-shaped cells are derived from embryonic mesenchyme and are located
in the periosteum and the endosteum.

A

osteoprogenitor cells

29
Q

what are capable of differentiating into osteoblasts

A

osteoprogenitor cells

30
Q

mature bone cell

A

osteocyte

31
Q

are large, motile, multinucleated cells (up to 50 nuclei) that resorb bone.

A

osteoclasts

32
Q

Osteoclast cytoplasm is usually

A

acidophilic

33
Q

unlike osteoporosis, is a genetic disorder affecting
osteoclasts so that they do not possess ruffled borders; therefore, these osteoclasts cannot resorb bone, which creates an imbalance between bone formation and bone
resorption. What is this

A

osteopetrosis

this person will have a large bone density

34
Q

what bone is composed of interconnected trabeculae. Bony tra- beculae surround cavities filled with bone marrow.

A

spongy bone

35
Q

what bone is always surrounded compact bone

A

spongy bone

36
Q

has no trabeculae or bone marrow cavities.

A

compact bone

37
Q

mmature or woven bone

A

primary bone

38
Q

mature or lamellar bone

A

secondary bone

39
Q

are long cylindrical structures that run approximately paral- lel to the long axis of the diaphysis.

A

haversian system (osteons)

40
Q

irregularly shaped lamellae between aversion systems

A

intersitial lamellae

41
Q

The combination of bone formation and resorption, is called

A

remodeling and it occurs throughout life

42
Q

is the process by which most of the flat bones (e.g., parietal bones of the skull) are formed

A

intramembraneous bone formation

43
Q

s the process by which long bones are formed. It begins in a segment of hyaline cartilage that serves as a small model for the bone.

A

endochondral bone formation

44
Q

occurs in children deficient in vitamin D, which results in calcium
deficiency. It is characterized by deficient calcification in newly formed bone and is generally accompanied by deformation of the bone spicules in epiphyseal plates; as a result, bones grow more slowly than normal and are deformed by the stress of weight bearing

A

Rickets

45
Q

are immovable joints composed of connective tissue, cartilage, or bone.

A

synathroses

* these unite the 1st rib and and the sternum
