Exam #1 Ch. 4 part 2 (Bone, muscle, nervous tissue and tissue repair) Flashcards
(103 cards)
what does bone matrix contain?
hard calcium salts and collagen fibers
two types of bone
1) spongy bone
2) compact bone
what does spongy bone have?
spaces between the plates/beams (trabeculae) of bone and resembles a sponge.
what type of cells are found in bone?
osteocytes
where are the osteocytes located in spongy bone?
within lucunae in the trabeculae
what is the function of spongy bone?
provides strength and support without the greater weight of compact bone
where is spongy bone located? (5) (IVSPE)
1) the interior of the bones of the skull
2) verterbrae
3) sternum
4) pelvis
5) in the ends of long bones
how does compact bone appear?
solid with layer or lamellae
where are the osteocytes located in compact bone?/
also within the lucunae and distributed in a circular fashion around the central canals
what do small passageways ?
adjacent lacunae
what is the functions of compact bone?
provides great strength and support and forms a solid outer shell on bones that keeps them from being easily broken or punctured
where is compact bone located?
1) outer portions of portions
2) the shafts of bones
what type of matrix does fluid connective tissue have?
a watery matrix and unformed fibers
what type of connective tissue is blood?
fluid
what type of matrix does blood have?
a watery matrix
what type of cells does blood have?
1) erythrocytes (RBC)
2) leukocytes (WBC)
3) platelet (not a cell, a formed fragment)
what is the function of blood? (3) (TPI)
1) transport oxygen, carbon dioxide, hormones, nutrients, waste products and other substances
2) protects the body from infections
3) involved in temperature regulation
where is the blood located?
1) within blood vessels
2) WBC’s often leave the blood vessels and enter the interstitial spaces
where does blood cells and platelet cells form?
in Hemopoietic tissue and then it is called bone marrow
what tissue is found in bone marrow?
hemopoietic tissue
what forms in red bone marrow?
bone cells and platelets
what type of tissue is yellow bone marrow?
Adipose (NOT hemopoetic)
what exactly is red bone marrow?
hemopoetic tissue surrounded by a network of reticular fibers
what is the function of red bone marrow?
production of new blood cells
