41
Two components of the matrix of the bone
A) organic framework- stretching | B) inorganic salts- withstanding compression
42
Two ways mesoderm becomes bone
Intramembranous ossification And Endochondral ossification
43
Intramembranous ossification
When undifferentiated mesoderm forms spongy bone, formation of periosteum, and formation of compact bone plates
44
Endochondral Ossification
Cartilage models resemble future bones | Cortilange froms onto bone
45
How does a bone increase in length
Cartilage undergoes mitosis While epithelial cells next to the Diaphysis turn into bone
46
How does a bone increase in diameter
Osteoblasts build and osteoclasts consume your
47
When do Bones stop growing in length
25 in males and earlier in females
48
Factors that effect bone development STRESSES
Gravitational- supporting weight of the body Functional- the pull exerted from Muscle HORMONES NITRITION
49
Compound fracture
Broken ends go thru skin
50
Comminuted
Bone is splintered into many fragments w
51
Depressed
Brown bone is pushed inward, often in flat bones
52
Impacted
Broken ends of bone are driven into each other
53
Greeenstick
Bone does not break all the way through
54
When your body puts calcium ions where they don’t belong (kidney stones)
Metastatic calcification
55
When, during embryonic development , the posterior portion of the spinal column fails to form a bony arch around the spinal chord
Spina bifida
56
Common in older people Believed to be a result of gradual reduction in rate of bone formation while rate of bone absorbtipn remains normal
Osteoporosis
57
Bone tissue, periosteum and marrow become infected | Usually caused by staph
Osteomyelitis
58
A bone infection caused by mycobacterium tuberculosis
Tuberculosis of the bones
59
Bones demineralized and soften
In children: rickets | In adults: osteomalacia
60
When you have an increase in pituitary growth hormone after growth plates have turned to bone
Acromegaly
61
Increase in growth hormone prevents cartilage from turning to bone
Pituitary giant
62
Decrease in growth hormone causes cartilage to harden sooner
Pituitary dwarf
63
When epiphyseal cartilage functions for only a short time in bones and limbs Results in normal body with small arms and legs
Achondroplasia
