49
New cards

52
New cards

53
New cards
three types of bone cells

54
New cards
osteocytes
mature bone cells
55
New cards
osteoblasts
bone forming cells
56
New cards

57
New cards
the bone matrix can be broken down in order to release ____ in response to the _________
calcium, parathyroid horomone
58
New cards
ossification
bone growth
59
New cards
ossification involves two major phases
first: the hyaline cartilage is completely covered with bone matrix by bone forming cells called osteoblasts; second: the enclosed cartilage is digested away, opening up a medullary cavity within the newly formed bone allowing blood vessels to enter the bone
60
New cards
most hyaline cartilage is converted to bone tissue except
articular cartilage (covers the ends of the bones); epiphyseal plates (allow for lengthwise growth of long bones during childhood)
61
New cards
where is new cartilage constantly being formed
external surface on the articular cartilage and epiphyseal plate surface that faces the bone end
62
New cards
old cartilage is broken down and replaced by
bony matrix
63
New cards
how do bones grow during childhood
the osteoblasts in the periosteum add bone tissue to the diaphysis as osteoclasts in the endosteum remove bone from the diaphysis
64
New cards
both creating new bone tissue and destroying old bone tissue during puberty happens ______
at the same time
65
New cards
the process of long bone growth is controlled by
growth horomones and sex horomones
66
New cards
bone continues to lengthen until
puberty ends
67
New cards
true or false: bone is a dynamic and active tissue
true
68
New cards
when calcium levels are low in the blood, the _______ are stimulated to release ____ into the blood stream which signals the osteoclasts to break down bone matrix relasing ____ into the blood
parathyroid glands, PTH, CA ions
69
New cards
as the body increases in size,
areas of bone become thicker and form projections to increase their strength
70
New cards
closed (simple) fracture
a break that does not penetrate the skin
71

79

81
New cards
process for bone to be healed
