four steps when you break a bone

3 factors that affect bone remodeling/growth?
1) minerals **calcium is main mineral for growth **bone is MAIN storage for calcium 2) vitamins-- --vitamin C= synthesis of collagen --vitamin D= affects how calcium is released 3) hormones --Calcitonin (CT)--released by thyroid, increases osteoblasts activity --Parathyroid hormone (PTH)-opposite of CT, INC osteoclast activity --sex hormones--plays a role in osteoblast secretion (integrity of bone); when decreased--> higher rate for osteoporosis --Human growth hormone (hGH): secreted by pituitary, too much leads to gigantism and too little dwarfism
which 2 bone cells play a role in remodeling?
1) osteoblasts= repair 2) osteoclasts== reabsorb portions that need to be replaced

sphenoid cribriform plate crista galli
Bony Parts of the scapula (shoulder blade)
spine of scapula= on posterior side, a prominent ridge of bone that divides the supraspinous fossa and infraspinous fossa acromion= tip of the shoulder, highest bony part of scapula, articulates w/ clavicle coracoid process= inferior to clavicle but more anterior that acromion; muscle attachment site glenoid fossa/cavity-- a depression that articulates w/ head of humerus
vertebral bodies are mainly composed of what type of bone
spongy
Parts of the clavicle
sternal end, acromial end
Typical Ribs (3-9) features
sternal end--Connects to costal cartilage to sternum --Anterior Head of rib--Articulates w/ body of vertebrae Tubercle of the rib-Articulate w/ transverse process of vertebrae **ONLY thoracic vertebrae ARTICULATES w/ ribs Costal groove--Cradle for intercostal neural vascular--artery, vein and nerve travels in this area
What does the clavicle articulate with?
sternum, scapula
what is osteon
structural unit of compact bone (haversian system) Aligned in same direction along lines of stress --Well organized on lines of stress --e.g. certain type of stress occurs on a bone—>osteons form to protect it --dynamic/changes throughout life --tree like appearance
Important parts of intermediate cranial fossa
superior orbital fissure foramen rotundum foramen ovale petrous portion of temporal bone
Identify the location of acromion
superior part of scapula, more posterior than coracoid
Functions of the skeletal system
support, protection, movement, storage, blood cell production, mineral storage
coccyx vertebra
tailbone Remnant/vestige of the tail 3-4 coccygeal fused vertebrae
What is the most superior tarsal bone
talus
• Mandibular teeth
teeth of the lower jaw incisors canine--1 per quadrant 2 premolar 3 molar
Zygomatic bone
the arch of bone beneath the eye that forms the prominence of the cheek (aka cheekbone)
orbit (eye socket)
the bony cavity of the skull that contains and protects the eyeball and its associated muscles, blood vessels, and nerves Composed of many bones-- part of ethmoid bone (internal) part of sphenoid lacrimal bone Supraorbital nerve exits at a notch at superior part of orbit infraorbital nerve exits from inferior foramen
body of sternum
the bony structure that forms the middle portion of the sternum divots along body is where ribs meet sternum --Anterior portions come around w/ costal cartilages to touch sternum --We have 12 ribs but ONLY 10 articulate w/ sternum
mandibular fossa (temporal)
the depression in the temporal bone into which the condyle of the mandible fits-->allows you to open/close mouth and project/retract your mouth Cranial portion of temporomandibular joint
body of mandible
the horizontal portion of the lower jaw
Supraorbital margin of frontal bone
the sharp ridge that forms the border between the forehead and inside of the orbit Aka brow ridges Part of frontal bone Some people have more pronounced Often a sexually dimorphic trait
zygomatic arch
the slender arch formed by the temporal process of the cheekbone that bridges to the zygomatic process of the temporal bone
medial border of scapula
thin border on medial side 3 muscles attach here-- Rhomboid minor ( about level of spine) Rhomboid major (Inferior to minor) Levator scapulae (superior to spine)
Endosteum (long bone)
thin membrane that lines the medullary cavity Similar to periosteum but in one part of bone --Similar (connective tissue) structure, many osteoblasts & osteoclasts
Key parts of fibula
thinner bone compared to tibia Muscle attachment Not weight bearing (very skin shaft) Proximal portion (head)--More robust Neck--Thin/ pinched in part of bone Lateral malleolus--Distal end of fibula --articulates w/ talus (forms one part of ankle joint)
What is a greenstick fracture?
type of fracture where the bone bends and splits, causing a crack or incomplete break; common in children ONLY OCCURS w/ kids b/c bones haven't fully ossified-->bend w/o breaking
What is an impacted fracture?
type of fracture where the broken bone ends jam into each other
ulna vs radius
ulna = pinky side (medial) --U-shaped head --doesn't articulate w/ wrist radius = thumb side (lateral) --button head
ramus of mandible
vertical part of mandible
if radiographs of the leg bones (tibia and fibula) of an 18 YO basketball player show clear epiphyseal plates and NOT epiphyseal lines are likely to grow taller
yes
intramembranous ossification: develop of trabeculae
§ Still have osteoblasts in the area-->cont development of NEW BONE § Osteoclasts break down old bone § Formation of trabeculae (spicules of bone) --Mainly makes spongy bones --· In utero and in kids, red bone marrow w/in these spaces
