What are the four main types of bones?
|
Long
Short Flat Irregular |
|
Examples of long bones
|
humerus and tibia
|
|
Examples of short bones
|
carpals
tarsals |
|
Examples of flat bones
|
skull bones i.e. the frontal and temporal bones
|
|
examples of irregular bones
|
scapula, clavicle, ribs, sternum, hip, and the vertebrae
|
|
functions of bone
|
- provides shape, support, and protection to body structures
- act as levers that aid body movements - site of blood cell formation - stores certain vital inorganic salts |
|
parts of the long bone
|
epiphysis at both ends
articular cartilage diaphysis/shaft periosteum medullary cavity epiphyseal growth plate |
|
where is the ephysis?
|
at the articulating ends of long bones where they form joints with other bones
|
|
articular cartilage is made up of
|
hyaline cartilage, which helps protect and cushion the ephysis at the joint
|
|
periosteum is made up of
|
a thin membrane and provides points of attachments for tendons and ligaments
|
|
the diaphysis/shaft
|
the main body of the bone and contains an inner medullary cavity, which contains a specialized type of soft connective tissue called marrow
|
|
endochondryle bones are formed from and the process is called
|
formed from hyline cartilage and the process is called endochondryle ossification
|
|
intramembranous bones are formed from and the process is called
|
primative connective tissue by a process called intramembranous ossification
|
|
specialized cells called osteocytes
|
carry nutrients and waste to and from bone through special 'roadways' called canaliculi
|
|
osteoclasts
|
breaks down bone from inside
|
|
osteoblasts
|
breaks down bone from outside
bone forming cells and ddeposit calcium onto bone |
|
intramembranous bones
|
form layers of connective tissue examples- flat bones of the skull
|
|
endochondral bones
|
formed from hyaline cartilage, which is later replaced by bone tissue
|
|
intramembranous ossification
|
the process of replacing connectiv etissue with bone tissue
|
|
endochondrial ossification
|
the process with replacing hyaline cartilage
|
|
primary ossification site
|
bony tissue starts to replace hyaline cartilage in the center of the diaphysis
|
|
secondary ossification ceters
|
appear in the epiphysis and spongy bone growth plate/metaphysis becomes apparent between the two ossification centers
|
|
factors affecting bone growth
|
nutrition
sunlight availability hormones physical exercise |
|
Vitamin D
|
is found in milk and dairy products
|
|
the active form of vitamin d is formed when the inactive form...
|
called dehyocholesterol, is transported by blood to the skin where it is exposed to the sunlight
|
|
active form of Vitamin D
|
is important for the absorption of calcium on the intestine
|
|
metabolic/bone conditions
|
rickets
osteomalacia osteoperosis dwarfism acromegaly cretinism |
|
# of bones in the human body
|
206
|
|
bones are made up of two divisions
|
axial skelton
appendicular skeleton |
|
axial skeleton is made up of
|
bones of the skull, the Hyoid bone, the vetebral column, and the thoracic cage
|
|
the appendicular skeleton is made up of........
|
the bones of the upper and lower limbs and the bones that anchor the limbs to the axial skeleton
|
|
the Pectoral girdle is formed
|
by the scapula and the clavicle
|
|
# of axial bones
|
80
|
|
# of appendicular bones
|
126
|
|
the three bones that make up the hip bone
|
ilium, ischium, and pubis
|
|
another name for the hipbone
|
coaxal
|
|
three joints of the upper limb
|
humerus, radius, and ulna
|
|
three bones that make up the sternum
|
manibrium, body, and xiphoid process
|
|
which pairs of ribs are regarded as the true ribs?
|
1-7
|
|
what are floating ribs?
|
11-12 they have no cartilage
|
|
cranial bones
|
frontal
parietal temporak occipital sphenoid ethmoid |
|
facial bones
|
nasal
maxilla mandible zygomatic palatine vomer lacrimal inferior nasal concave |
|
joints
|
also called articulations, junctions between bones
|
|
SYNATHROSIS
|
NO MOVEMENT AT JOINT
|
|
CLASSIFICATION OF JOINTS
|
fibrous
cartilaginous synovial |
|
amphiathrotic
|
slightly movable
|
|
diathrotic
|
while others are freely movable
|
|
syndesmosis
|
these joints have a thin ligament called interosseus ligament between them
|
|
sutures
|
joints occur betwwen the flat bones of the skull, they are immovable
|
|
gophmosis
|
formed by bony processes forming a joint in a bony socket. immovable
|
|
cartilaginous
|
bones are connected by either hyaline, or fibrocartilage
|
|
subdivisions of cartiliginous joints
|
synchondrosis- temporary joints that later disappear during growth
|
|
symphysis
|
made up of fibrocartilage permits a small amount of movement
|
|
synovial
|
allow free movement consists of articular cartilage, a joint capsule, and synovial membrane which secretes synovial fluid
|
|
six major subdivisions of synovial joints
|
ball-and-socket joints
condyloid joints gliding joints hinge joints pivot joint saddle joint |
|
ball-and-socket joint
|
have a globular head that articulates with a cup-shaped cavity of another bone, permits a wide range of movements
|
|
condyloid joints
|
involve the articulation of the ovoid end of one bone into the elliptical cavity of another bone, many tyoes of movement are possible
|
|
gliding joints
|
have articulating surfaces that appear flat, there is a gliding/sliding movement between the bones
|
|
hinge joints
|
involve the articulation of the concave surface of one bone with the convex surface of another bone
|
|
pivot joint
|
the cylindrical surface of one bone rotates within a ring formed of bone and ligament
