Q

Do not divide.

Help repair damaged bones

A

Osteocytes

21
Q

Immature bone cells that turn into osteocytes

A

Osteoblasts

22
Q

Stem cells that divide to produce osteoblasts

Assist in fracture repair

A

Osteoprogenitor cells

23
Q

Secrete acids and protein digesting enzymes

Recycler of the bone

A

Osteoblasts

24
Perforating canals Perpendicular to the central canal Carry blood vessels into bone and marrow
Compact bone
25
Does not have osteons | Trabeculae have no blood vessels
Spongy bone
26
In some bones, spongy bone holds yellow bone marrow | Is yellow because it stores fat
Yellow bone marrow
27
Human bones grow until about age 25
Bone development
28
Bone formation
Osteogenesis
29
The process of replacing other tissues with bone
Ossification
30
The process of depositing calcium salts | Occurs during bone ossification and in other tissues
Calcification
31
Ossifies bones that originate as hyaline cartilage
Endochrondral ossification
32
Occurs in the dermis
Intramembranous ossification
33
1. Nutrient artery and vein 2. Metaphyseal vessels 3. Periosteal vessels
Blood supply of mature bones
34
Networks of lymphatic vessels | Sensory nerves
The periosteum also contains
35
Maintains itself. Replaces mineral reserves. Recycles and renews bone matrix. Involves osteocytes, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts.
The adult skeleton
36
Bone degenerates quickly | Up to one third of bone mass can be lost in a few weeks of inactivity.
Bone degeneration
37
Made in the kidneys. Helps absorb calcium and phosphorus from digestive tract. Synthesis requires vitamin D3 Vitamin C is required for collagen synthesis is and stimulation of osteoblast differentiation Vitamin A stimulates osteoblast activity Vitamin K and B12 help synthesize bone proteins
The hormone calcitiol
38
Stimulate bone growth
Growth hormone and thyroxine
39
Stimulate osteoblasts
Estrogens and androgens
40
Regulate calcium and phosphate levels
Calcitonin and parathyroid
41
Increases calcium ion levels by: Stimulating osteoclasts Increasing intestinal absorption of calcium Decreasing calcium excretion at kidneys
Parathyroid hormone
42
Opposite of PTH
Calcitonin
43
Cracks or breaks in bones
Fractures
44
Bleeding Cells of the endosteum and periosteum Osteoblasts Osteoblasts and osteocytes remodel the fracture for up to a year
Repairing fractures
45
Bones become weaker and thinner with age Osteopenia begins between ages 30 and 40 Women lose 8 percent of bone mass per decade men lose 3 percent
Age related changes
46
Resulting in fragile limbs Reduction in height Tooth loss
The epiphysis, vertebrae, and jaws are most affected
47
Severe bone loss Affects normal function over age 45 occurs in 29 percent of women 18 percent of men
Osteoporosis
48
Estrogens and androgens help maintain bone mass | Bone loss in women accelerates after menopause
Hormones and bone loss
49
Cancerous tissues release osteoblast activating factor That stimulates osteoclasts And produces severe osteoporosis
Cancer and bone loss
