Lesson 2 Flashcards
What is the ECM made up of?
Water, collagen fibers (organic), and crystallized mineral salts (inorganic)
What makes up the ECM the least and most?
15% water, 55% crystallized mineral salts
What secretes collagen fibers?
Osteoblasts
What do osetoblasts secrete?
Collagen fibers
What purpose do collagen fibers serve?
Prevent bone shattering
What would happen if bone was only made up of crystallized mineral salts?
Bones could shatter upon harsh impact
What cells are in osseous tissue?
Osteogenic cells
Osteoblast cells
Osteocyte cells
Osteoclast cells
Where are osteogenic cells found in higher densities?
Outer bone surfaces and in the medullary cavity
Where are osteoblast cells found in higher densities?
Outer bone surfaces and in the medullary cavity
What cells develop into osteoblasts?
Osteogenic cells
What do osteogenic cells develop into?
Osteoblasts
What cells build bone?
Osteoblasts
What do osteoblasts do?
Build bone
What cells are mature bone cells?
Osteocytes
What do osteocytes do?
Communicate with other osteocytes to upkeep with daily metabolism of bone tissue
What do osteoclasts do?
Breakdown bones via lysosomal enzymes
Which of the cells in the osseous tissue are the biggest?
Osteoclasts
What cells breakdown bone tissue?
Osteoclasts
What cells communicate with osteocytes to upkeep with the daily metabolism of bone tissue?
Osteocytes
What is the life cycle of osseous tissue?
Osteogenic cells→ osteoblasts→ osteocytes
What cells are not part of the life cycle of osseous tissue?
Osteoclasts
What are the 2 types of bone?
Spongy and compact
What is compact bone also known as?
Dense or cortical bone
What type of bone has strength in bending?
Compact bone
