Skeletal Tissue
Question | Answer |
---|---|
important connective tissues that work with bones to provide the support framework of the skeleton. | Cartilage, Tendons, and Ligaments |
Plates of shiny connective tissue that are surrounded by the perichondrium and lubricated by synovial fluid to provide a slippery surface over which bones may move freely. | Cartilage |
Transparent viscous joint fluid that is secreted by the synovial membrane. | Synovial fluid |
A double-layered connective tissue membrane that surrounds the cartilage. | Perichondrium. |
Specialized tough cords or bands of dense white connective tissue that Connects muscles to bones.Continuous with the periosteum of the bone. | Tendons. |
Double-layer membrane that covers all bones except the articular surfaces. | Periosteum. |
Composed of densely packed fibers of collagen. | Tendons. |
A twisted, rope-like protein. | Collagen |
Tough white bands of tissue,Bind bones together,Composed of collagen. | Ligaments |
Points where two or more bones come together | Joints |
Caused by the stretching or tearing of a supporting ligament, due to the partial or temporary dislocation of the bone end. | Sprain |
Occurs when a muscle is stretched or torn, resulting in pain, swelling, and bruising of the surrounding soft tissues. | Strain |
Specialized form of connective tissue,Protect internal organs,Help enable movement,Storage site for minerals, particularly calcium.Have a role in the formation of blood cells and platelets. | Bones |
What Consist of collagen and the mineral hydroxyapatite? | Bones |
A compound that contains calcium and phosphate | Hydroxyapatite |
The ____________ fibers in bone act like reinforcing rods in a concrete structure, lending flexible strength | Collagen |
Regulate bone remodeling, Regulate blood calcium levels | Calcitonin and Parathormone hormones |
Cells that produce bone tissue. | Osteoblasts. |
An osteoblast that becomes surrounded by bony matrix. | Osteocyte. |
Large, multinucleated cells that dissolve bone tissue | Osteoclasts |
Play a major role in:Bone remodeling,Removal of old bone,Deposition of new bone. | Osteoclasts |
Thin sheets or layers into which bone tissue is organized | Lamellae |
Minute cavities in the bone or cartilage containing osteocytes | Lacunae |
Minute canals in the bone structure that connect concentric sheets of lamella | Canaliculi |
Longer than they are wide and include most bones of the upper and lower extremitiesFemur, tibia, radius, ulna | Long Bones |
As broad as they are long and often are cube-shaped or round | Short bones |
Relatively thin and flattened bonesRibs, sternum, scapulae | Flat bones |
Bony rods oriented along the lines of stress to increase the weight-bearing capacity of the long bones | Trabeculae |
The formation of new bone on the surface of a bone | Appositional growth |
The growth of cartilage in the epiphyseal plate and its eventual replacement by bone | Endochondral growth |
Changes in the shape of bones as an individual grows due to the removal of old bone and the deposition of new bone by osteoclasts | Bone remodeling |
Top of the axial skeleton consisting of 28 bones Three anatomic groups of bones: Auditory ossicles,Cranium,Face. | Skull |
Joints where the bones come together in the skull.Sagittal suture,Coronal suture,Lambdoid suture. | Sutures |
Soft spots in the skull of a newborn and infant where the sutures of the skull have not yet grown together.They link the sutures. | Fontanels |
These bones function in hearing.Malleus,Incus,Stapes. | Auditory Ossicles |
Made up of eight bones that encase and protect the brain.Frontal bone,Parietal bones (2),Occipital bone,Foramen magnum,Sphenoid bone,Ethmoid bone,Temporal bones (2). | Cranium |
The 33 separate bones that make up the spinal cordSupport the weight of the bodyProtect the spinal cord | Vertebrae |
The five sections of the _______: Cervical,Thoracic,Lumbar,Sacrum,Coccyx. | The Spine |
A fluid-filled sac situated between a tendon and a bone that cushions and protects joints | Bursa |
