INTRODUCTION Flashcards
(99 cards)
Consists bone of head, vertebral column, ribs, and sternum
Axial skeleton
Bones of the extremities
appendicular skeleton
calcified connective tisue consistings of cells(osteocytes0 embbed in a matrix of ground substance and collagen fibers
Bones
- have a superficial thin layer of compact bone around a central mass of spongy bone
- contain internal soft tissue, the marrow
includes the humerus, radius, ulna, femur, tibia, fibula, metacarpals, and phalanges
Long bones
Long bones developed by replacement of hyaline cartilage plate called __________
Endochondral ossification
Forms shaft (central region) and is composed of a thick tube of compact bone that encloses the marrow cavity
Diaphysis
Part of the diaphysis, the growth zone between the diaphysis and epiphysis
Metaphysis
Expanded articular ends, separated from the shaft by epiphyseal plate during bone growth and composed of apsongy bone surrounded by a thin layer of compact bone
Epiphyses
Include the carpal and tarsal bones and are approximately cuboid shaped
Shot bones
- composed of spongy bone and marrow surrounded by a thin outer layer of compact bone
Include the ribs, sternum, scapulae, and bones in the vault of the skull.
Flat bones
- Consist of 2 layers of compact bone eclosing spongy bine and marrow space (diploe)
- Have articular surface that are covered with fibrocartilage and grow by the replacement of Connective tissues
Includes bones of mixed shapes such as bones of the skull, vertebrae, and coxa
Irregular bones
- Contain mostly spongy bone enveloped by a thin outer layer of compact bone
Developed in certain tendons and reduce friction on the tendon, thus protecting it from excessive wear
Sesamoid bone
- commonly found where tendons cross the ends of long bones in the limbs, as in the wrist and the knee
Gradual softening of the bone due to failure of the bone to calcify because of lack of vitamin D or renal tubular dysfunction
Osteomalacia
Decreased calcification of bone or a reduced bone mass due to an inadequate osteoid synthesis
Osteopenia
age related disorder characterized by decreased bone mass and icnreased susceptibility to fractures of the hip, vertebra, and wrist
Osteoporosis
abnormally denses bone, obliterating the marrow cavity, due to defective resorption of immature bone
Osteopetrosis
Places if union between 2 or more bones
Joints
The nerve supplying a joint also supplies the muscles that move the joint and the skin covering the insertion of such muscles
Hilton’s law
Joined by fibrous tissue, have NO joint cavities, and permit little movement
Synarthroses
- Sutures
- Syndesmoses
- connected by fibrous connective tissue
- occur as the interior tibiofibular and tympanostapedial syndesmoses
United by cartialhe and have NO joint cavity
Cartilaginous joints
unite by hyaline cartilage and permit no movement but growth in the length
Primary cartilaginous Joints (synchodroses)
- Epiphyseal cartilage plates
- sphenooccipital and manubriosternal synchodroses
Are joined by fibrocartilage and are slightlu movable joints
Secondary cartilaginous joints (symphyses)
- Pubic symphysis
- intervertebral disks
Permit a great degree of free movement and are classified according to the shape of the articulation and/or type of movement
Synovial (Diarthrodial)
- Plane(gliding) joints
- Hinge (Ginglymus) joints
- Pivot (trochoid) joints
- Condylar(ellipsoidal) joints
- Saddle (sellar)joints
- Ball and socker (spheroidal or cotyloid) joints
united by 2 flat articualr surfaces and allow a simple gliding or sliding of one bone over the other
Occur in the proximal tibiofibular, intertarsal, intercarpal, intermetacarpal, carpometacarpal and acromioclavicular joints
Plane (gliding) joints
