Individual bones are made up of:
|
Bone tissue
marrow
cartilage
periosteum
|
What are the different types of bones?
|
Long
short
flat
irregular
|
Humerus radius ulna metacarpals phalanges femur tibia fibula metatarsals phalanges
|
Examples of long bones
|
What are examples of short bones?
|
Carpals (wrist)
tarsals (ankle)
|
Sternum (breastbone)
scapular (shoulder blade)
os coxae (hip bone)
ribs
most cranial bones
|
Examples of flat bones
|
Sphenoid & ethmoid bones of the cranium
vertebrate (backbone or spine)
|
Irregular bones
|
External and internal surfaces of flat bone are composed of
|
Compact bone
(middle layer is spongy bone-diploe)
|
Reside in endosteum or periosteum
multiply continuously & differentiate into osteoblasts
|
Osteogenic cells
|
Form organic matter of matrix & help to mineralize it in response to stress or fractures
|
Osteoblasts
|
Osteoblasts that have become trapped
--signal osteoclasts & osteoblasts about mechanical stresses
|
Osteocytes
|
Bone-dissolving cells
develop in bone marrow
reside in pits called resorption bays
|
Osteoclasts
|
What is the organic matter in the Matrix of the osseous tissue?
|
Matrix of Osseous tissue is 1/3 organic
has collagen, glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans & glycoproteins
|
What is in the inorganic matter in the matrix of the osseous tissue?
|
85% hydroxyapatite
10% calcium carbonate
other minerals
|
Defective mineralization of bones can result in:
|
Rickets (in children) and Osteomalacia (in adults)
|
In the spongy bone, spongelike appearance formed by rods and plates of bone called:
|
Trabeculae
- spaces filled with red bone marrow
