Parts of inner bone and skull
Bone matrix
nonliving structual part of bone outside of the lacunae
Red bone marrow
Located in the spongy bone makes red blood cells
nutrient artery
artery in the diphysis
central canal
carries blood vessels and nerves found at center of bone
distal epiphysis
end of the bone located away from midline of body
proximal epiphysis
end of the bone located near the midline of the body
Metaphysis
growth zone
compact bone
hard bone tissue inside the outer layer (periosteum)
spongy bone
has red bone marrow makes cells lighter
medullary cavity
hollow are in shaft that contains yellow bone marrow
epiphyseal line
in the spongy tissue is a growth point
concentric lamellae
matrix around the center canal
bone makers
osteoblast
bone destroyer
osteoclast
bone cell
osteocyte
lacunae
outer coverage of the osetocyte the "home" of the cell
periosteum
protection on outside of bone proper connective tissue
diphysis
shaft of a long bone
yellow bone marrow function
stores fat
canaliculi
tiny canals connecting lacunae
Articular cartilage
