chapter 6 Flashcards
This function of bone provides the framework for the body, provides structure
support
this function of bone is to cover the vital organs
protection
this function of bone is provided by muscles that attach & pull on the bones
assistance in movement
this function of bone is the calcium that keeps the bones strong and helps to contract muscles
assistance in movement
this function of bone is all the red and white blood cell
blood cell production
this function of bone is that you keep energy here to be used when needed
fat storage
name the 6 functions of bones (sugar provides all my basic fun)
support protection assistance in movement mineral storage blood cell production fat storage
bone that is longer than it s wide, has a narrow middle and wide ends, examples femur, humerus
long bones
bone that is equal in width and length, cube like, examples tarsals and carpals
short bones
bone that is thin and sheet-like, examples ribs, cranial bones and sternum
flat bones
bone that does not fit into the other categories, most bones of the face, vertebrae, and hip bones
irregular bones
bone that is triangular in shape, has a base and an apex, examples - patellar
sesamoid
this part of the long bone are the proximal and distal ends, they consist mostly of spongy bone
epiphysis
the narrow middle portion of the long bone that is mostly compact bone, known as the shaft
diaphysis
this part of the long bone provides cushioning at the ends of long bones, provides friction and absorbs shock
articular cartilage (hyaline)
this part of the long bone is found in the epiphyses, it is cartilage at the junction of the epiphysis and diaphysis that provides space for growing the length of the bone
epiphyseal plate in growing bone
epiphyseal line in bones done growing
this part of the long bone is the hollow space or cavity of the diaphysis and contains yellow marrow
medullary cavity
this part of the long bone is the membrane that surrounds the outside of the bone, it contains bone-forming cells to add width to the bone, and is the attachment point for tendons and ligaments
periosteum
this part of the long bone lines the inside of the medullary cavity it also contains a layer of bone-forming cells
endosteum
what are the 4 types of bone cells? (all O’s)
osteogenic cell
osteoblasts
osteoclasts
osteocytes
these bone cells divide and make new cells, mitosis (derived from connective tissue, stem cells)
osteogenic cell
these bone cells initiate bone growth, or make new bone (derived from connective tissue, stem cells)
osteoblasts
these bone cells are the mature bone cells that perform maintenance function (derived from connective tissue, stem cells)
osteocytes
these bone cells breakdown bone extracellular matrix, responsible for clearing out old bone (resorption) (different and separate from all other bone cells, derived from white blood cells)
osteoclasts
