- Compact bone

kinds of bone tissue
Compact bone
- Makes up shaft and surface of long bones
- Consists of osteons
Kinds of bone tissue
Spongy bone
Consists of trabeculae

Types of bone
Long bone
Produced through endochondrial ossification
When hyaline cartillage is replaced by bone
Parts of a long bone

- Epiphysis
- Diaphysis

- Periosteum
- Endosteum
E D M M P E
Parts of a long bone
Epiphysis
- Ends of long bones
- Where red bone marrow is present (RBC production)
Parts of a long bone
Diaphysis
Bone shaft connecting the epyphisis
Parts of a long bone
Metaphysis
- Where diaphysis and epiphysis meets
- contains epiphyseal line
Epiphysial line - remnant cartilage from growing bone
Parts of a long bone
Marrow cavity
Medular cavity
Stores adipose tissue that forms yellow bone marrow
Parts of a long bone
Periosteum
membrane covering the diaphysis where tendons and ligaments attach
Parts of a long bone
Endosteum
membrane lining the marrow cavity
Short bones
• consists of spongy bone and marrow surrounded by compact bone.
• cuboid shaped
Flat bones
• consists of spongy bone between two compact bone layers
• articular surface covered with fibroblasts
• grows through replacement of cartilage into bone
Irregular bone
• spongy bone covered in thin compact bone
Sesamoid bone
• develop in tendons to reduce friction and shift mechanical function
• found where tendons cross synovial articulations at the end of long bones in limbs
Wormian bones
• between sutures of cranial bones
Joints
- Union of two of more bones
- Hilton’s law
- Mobility and stability of the joint is inversely proportional
Hilton’s law - the nerve that supplies the joint is the same nerve supplying the muscle and skin covering the joint
Structural classicifation of joints
F C S
- Fibrous
- Catiloginous
- Synovial
Structural Classifications of joints
Fibrous joints
- Joined by fibrous cartilage
- no joint cavity
- permit little movement
Structural Classifications of joints
Cartiloginous
- joined by cartilage
- no joint cavity
- Primary cartiloginous joints and secondary cartiloginous joints
Cartiloginous joints
Primary cartiloginous joints
synchondroses
- Joined by hyaline cartilage
- allows growth in length
- little movement
Cartiloginous joints
Secondary cartiloginous joints
Symphyses
- joined by firbocartilage
- slgihtly movable
Structural Classifications of joints
Synovial joints
- between two separate skeletal elements
- have joint cavity with synovial fluid
- permits degrees of movement
