New cards

Skeletal System

the skeletal system fucntions as strucutral support for our tissues and organs

2
New cards

what is skeletal system amde of

bones cartilage tendons

3
New cards

Vertebrate skeleton

comprised of an endoskeleton

cartilage and bone

ligaments and tendons

4
New cards

cartilage

avascular connective tissue soft and flexible

5
New cards

bone

living connective tissue that is hard and strong

6
New cards

ligaments

bone to bone connection

7
New cards

tendons

muscle to bone connector

8
New cards

Bone functions

support of soft tissue

protection of internal organs

assistance in body movmenet

mineral storage

blood production

energy storage in form of adipose cells

endocrine regulation

9
New cards

Bone development stage mature

Lamellar bone is strong

spongy and compact type

10
New cards

Immature development bone

woven bone and weak

11
New cards

bone remodeling

bone is a living tissue

does not remain stagnant is constantly turned over to be removedel

the continuous process of both bone deposition and bone resorption, allowing the bones to adapt.

12
New cards

Axial Skeleton

Skull Ribcage and spine

13
New cards

Appendicular

everything but the skull spine and ribcage

14
New cards

Sutures

immovable joints

15
New cards

Movable Joints

Plane hinge candylar pivot ball socket saddle

16
New cards

Fibrous

no movment

17
New cards

Cartilagnious

same movement

18
New cards

synovial

ample or free movement

19
New cards

Origin

point of attachement of muscle

20
New cards

Insertion

Point of attachment of muscle to bone that moves

21
New cards

Plane (Gliding)

Sliding

Wrist ankle

22
New cards

Hinge

One Direction

Elbow Knee

23
New cards

Pivot

Rotation

NeckC

24
New cards

Condyloid

two planes

wrist

25
New cards

saddle

two planes + opposition

thunb

26
New cards

ball socket

all directions + rotation

shoulder hip

27
New cards

Osteoprogenitor

Differenties into osteoblast

28
New cards

Osteoblast

secrete collagen and organic compound

29
New cards

Osteocytes

Exchange nutrietns and materials with blood

30
New cards

Osteoclasts

destory bone matirx releasing mineral back to blood

31
New cards

Compact Bone

circular bone called lamellae

osteon

periosteum

haversion canal

volkmann canal

32
New cards

Spongy Bone

Yellow bone marrow

33
New cards

Bone and calcium

most of the Ca 2+ in body is stored as hydroxyapatte a type of calcium phosphate compound

34
New cards

ways born are made

Endochondral Ossificaiton or intramembranous ossification

35
New cards

fundamental structure unit of compact bone is

osteon

36
New cards

what is at the center of osteons

Haversian canal, which contains the blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves that travel throughout the bone.

37
New cards

Lacunae

small spaces where osteocytes are located

38
New cards

lamellae

the circular areas of bone

39
New cards

canaliculi

what conencts the circular layers of bone allowing for the transfer of nutrients and wastes between osteocytes.

40
New cards

epiphyseal plate

located in the metaphysis and is the source of bone growth.

he epiphyseal plate is filled with many cartilage cells that can divide, making the bone longer.

41
New cards

endochondral ossification.

the cartilage cells are replaced by bone cells

42
New cards

epiphyseal line.

When the bone has finished growing in length, the epiphyseal plate is replaced

43
New cards

Endosteum

he thin vascular membrane that lines the inner surface of bones, known as the medullary cavity.

44
New cards

Yellow bone marrow

Yellow bone marrow is found in the medullary cavity of long bones and serves as a source of energy via adipose cells.

45
New cards

Periosteum

Periosteum is the thin vascularized membrane that surrounds the outer surface of the bone. It contains osteoprogenitor and osteoblast cells for bone activity

46
New cards

Red bone marrow

Red bone marrow is found in the cavities of spongy bone and is involved in the production of red blood cells
