Cards (256)

  • structural framework for body
    support soft tissues
    provide attachment points for tendons

    Support (function)
  • protects most important internal organs from injury
    protection (function)
  • pull on bones to produce movements
    assistance in movement
  • stores several minerals
    bone releases minerals into blood to maintain critical mineral balances
    distribute minerals to other body parts
    mineral homeostasis (storage and release)
  • hemopoiesis = red bone marrow produces rbc, wbc, and platelets
    Blood Cell Production
  • yellow bone marrow consists of adipose cells store glycerides
    stored glycerides = potential chemical energy reserve
    triglyceride storage
  • growing between
    bone's shaft or body
    long cylindrical main portion of bone
    diaphysis
  • growing over
    proximal and distal ends of bone

    epiphysis
  • regions between diaphysis and epiphyses
    metaphyses
  • thin layer of hyaline cartilage
    cover part of epiphysis where bone forms articulation with another bone
    reduces friction and absorbs shock
    articular cartilage
  • tough connective tissue sheath
    surrounds bone not covered by articular cartilage
    protects bone, assists in fracture repair, nourish bone
    periosteum
  • hollow, cylindrical space that contains fatty yellow bone marrow
    minimizes weight of bone by reducing dense bony material
    long bones' tubular design for max strength with min weight
    medullary cavity
  • thin membrane that lines medullary cavity
    contains single layer of bone-forming cells
    endosteum
  • unspecialized bone stem cells
    osteoprogenitor cells
  • bone building cells
    osteoblasts
  • mature bone cells
    main cells in bone tissue and maintain daily metabolism
    exchange of nutrients and wastes with blood
    osteocytes
  • huge cells derived from fusion of as many as 50 monocytes
    concentrated in endosteum
    osteoclasts
  • contains few spaces and is the strongest form of bone tissue
    found beneath periosteum of all bones and makes up bulk of diaphyses
    compact bone tissue
  • trabecular or cancellous bone tissue
    does not contain osteons
    located inferior of a bone, protected by a covering of compact bone

    spongy bone tissue
  • small arteries accompanied by nerves
    enter diaphysis through many interosteonic (volkmannn's or perforating) canals
    supply periosteum and outer compact bone
    periosteal arteries
  • enter bone through nutrient foramen
    sustains high blood pressure
    nutrient artery
  • enter metaphyses of long bone together with nutrient artery
    metaphyseal artery
  • enter epiphyses of long bone

    epiphyseal arteries
  • any break in a bone
    named according to severity, shape, position
    fracture
  • series of microscopic bone fissures that forms without evidence of injury to other tissues
    stress fracture
  • early inflammatory phase
    blood vessels crossing fracture line are broken
    fracture hematoma
    reactive phase
  • mass of blood in reactive phase that forms 6-8hrs after injury
    fracture hematoma
  • blood vessels grow into fracture hematoma and phagocytes begin to clean up dead bone cells
    fibrocartilaginous callus = mass of repair tissue consisting of collagen fibers and cartilage that bridges broken bone ends
    formation takes about 3 weeks
    fibrocartilaginous (soft) callus formation
  • osteoprogenitor cells develop into osteoblasts
    lasts about 3-4 months
    bony callus formation
  • final phase of fracture repair
    dead portion of original broken bones are gradually resorbed by osteoclasts
    compact bone replaces spongy bone around fracture periphery
    bone remodeling phase
  • number of bones in adult human
    206
  • number of bones in infants and children
    more than 206 bones
  • total bones in axial skeleton
    80 bones
  • AXIAL SKELETON
    skull
    • 8 cranium
    • 14 face
    1 hyoid bone
    6 auditory ossicles
    26 vertebral column
    thorax
    • 1 sternum
    • 24 ribs
  • total bones in appendicular skeleton
    126 bones
  • APPENDICULAR SKELETON
    pectoral girdles
    • 2 clavicle
    • 2 scapula
    upper limbs

    • 2 fibula
    • 2 tibia
    • 14 tarsals
    • 10 metatarsals
  • greater length than width
    consist of shaft and variable number of extremities
    long bones
  • absorbs stress of body's weight
    curved bones
  • cube shaped
    nearly equal length and width
    consist of spongy bone tissue except at surface
    most carpal bones and tarsal bones
    short bones
  • generally thin and composed of two nearly parallel plates of compact bone tissue
    afford considerable protection and extensive areas for muscle attachment
    flat bones
