Chapter 33: MNT of Musculoskeletal Disorders Flashcards
(64 cards)
musculoskeletal system includes (3)
bones, joints, and muscles
musculoskeletal system has associated structures (2)
ligaments and tendons
bone structure and bone physiology - bone composition
a connective tissue in which the intercellular matrix has been impregnated with inorganic calcium salts so that it has great tensile and compressible strength but is light enough to be moved by coordinated muscle contraction
bone
bone structure and bone physiology
the intercellular matrix is composed of 2 substances
organic matter and inorganic salts
intercellular matrix
constitutes about 1/3 of the dry weight of bone
organic matter
intercellular matrix
it includes bone cells. blood vessels, and nerves
organic matter
intercellular matrix
consist of collagen fibers embedded in an amorphous ground substance
organic matter
intercellular matrix
make up the other 2/3 of the dry weight of the bone
inorganic salts
intercellular matrix
consist of hydroxyapatite
inorganic salts
inorganic salts
an insoluble microcrystalline structure of calcium phosphate salts, and small amounts of calcium carbonate and calcium fluoride
hydroxyapatite
bone types
2 types of mature bones
cancellous or spongy bone and compact bone
bone types
found in the interior of bones and is composed of trabeculae or spicules of bone, which form a lattice-like pattern
cancellous or spongy bone
cancellous or spongy bone
the lattice-like structures are line with _____ and filled with either red or yellow bone marrow
osteogenic cells
cancellous or spongy bone
relatively light yet its structure has considerable tensile strength and weight bearing properties
cancellous bone
intercellular matrix
has a densely packed calcified intercellular matrix that makes it more rigid than cancellous bone
compact bone
intercellular matrix
it has the major component of tubular bones
compact bone
intercellular matrix
found along the lines of stress on long bones and forms an outer protective shell on other bones
compact bone
4 types of bone cells that participate in the formation and maintenance of bone tissue
osteogenic cells, osteoblast, osteocytes, osteoclasts
type of bone cells
function: undifferentiated that differentiate into osteoblasts
osteogenic cells
type of bone cells
function: found in the periosteum, endosteum, and epiphyseal growth plate growing bones
osteogenic cells
type of bone cells
function: bone-building cells that synthesize and secrete the organic matrix of bone
osteoblast
type of bone cells
function: also participates in the calcification of the organic matter
osteoblast
type of bone cells
function: mature bone cells that function in the maintenance of bone matrix
osteocytes
type of bone cells
function: play an active role in releasing calcium into the blood
osteocytes
