24
Q

Yellow vs red marrow cavity?

A

Yellow storing fat

Red making blood

25
The membrane lining the medullary cavity is known as a _________ which is rich in ___________
Endosteum | Osteoclasts
26
Osteon
The cylinders that run through the bone
27
A _________is running vertical in the bone, and the _________ canal are running horizontal
Central canal | Perforating
28
What is the disadvantage of compact bone and what is the advantage compared to cancellous or sponges bone?
Strong vertically, not so strong in other directions
29
Spikes of the spongey bones called?
Trabeculae
30
What is the space in between trabeculae known as? What does it do?
Interosteospace, red bone marrow is found here
31
Advantage vs disadvantage of spongey bone? Compared to compact bone.
Overall weaker, but stronger from more directions
32
What are the two types of ossification?
Endochondrial | Intramembranous
33
What is intramembranous ossification?
When osteoblasts are directly responsible for making more cells
34
What is endochondrial ossification?
When cartilage is made first and then turned to bone
35
______________: the growth plate that can be found at the end of bone
Epiphyseal plate
36
Sesamoid bone? Ex?
Bone imbedded in a tendon. Patella
