Q

Name the two types of cells

A

Immature (blast) actively mitotic, secrete ground substances and fibres
Mature (clasts) less active, maintain matrix health but can revert to active state if damaged

A

Comminuted - bone fragments into 3 or more pieces
Compression - bone is crushed, osteoporotic bone

Q

Elastic Cartilage

A

Almost identical to hayline cartilage
Contains more elastic fibres
Found where strength and exceptional stretching and bending is needed (ear and epiglottis)

Q

Fibro cartilage

A

Matrix similar to but less firm than hayline cartilage
No perichondrium
Thick collagen fibres main component
Optimised for tensile strength & to absorb compressive shock
Found in intervertebral discs, pubic symphysis discs of knee joint

25
What does cartilage lack
Nerve fibres
26
Is cartilage vascular or avascular and how do they get nutrients
Avascular Diffusion
27
What is cartilage surrounded by (membrane)
Perichondrium
28
What are cartilage produces and maintained by
Produces - condroblasts Maintained - condrocytes
29
What are cartilage known for
Very limited repair it commonly scars
30
31
What are connective tissue mostly made of
ECM
32
What does cartilage resist
Both tension and compression
33
What qualities does cartilage have
Intermediate between dense connective tissue & bone
34
True or false Cartilage is tough but flexible
True
35
36
What does hormones produce in bone
Osteocalcin
37
38
Please name the bones of the axial skeleton
Cranium Facial bones Hyoid Vertebra column: cervicle, thorasic, lumbar, sacrum, coccyx Sternum Ribs
39
Please name the bones of the appendicular skeleton
Clavicle Scapula Humerus Ulna Radius Carpals Metacarpals Phalanges Os coxae Femur Patella Tibia Fibula Tarsals Metatarsal Phalanges
40
Where can you find hematopoietic tissue in infants
Medullary cavity of diaphysis and in all areas of spongy bone
41
42
Where can you find hematopoietic tissue in adults
In diploe of flat bones, head of femur & humerus, and in some irregular bones
43
Chemical composition of bone: inorganic
Hydroxyapitite/bioapitite 65% of bone by mass Mainly calcium phosphates CA5 (PO4) 3 (OH) Responsible for bone hardness and resistance to compression
44
What is a osteoid
Unminerilized bone matrix composed of proteoglycans, glycoproteins
45
46
What are projections
Generally tend to be sites of muscle and ligament attachment
47
What are the projections that help form joints
Head Facet Condyle Ramus
48
With what are the periosteum secured to underlying bone
Perforating fibres
49
What rich supply does the inner osteogenic layer of the periosteum have
Nerve fibres, blood, lymphatic vessels which enter via nutrient formina
50
What does the endosteum do
Delicate membrane that covers the internal surface of bone
51
52
What does organic chemical composition of bone consist of of
Osteoid Collagen Cells
53
54
Name the 4 zones or postnatal bone growth
Proliferation Zone: cartilage cells undergo mitsosis Hypertrophic Zone: Older cartilage cells inlarge Calcification Zone: matric calcifies, catrligate cells die, matrix begin deteriorating , blood vessels invade the cavaties Ossification Zone: new bone formation
