Bone Growth
1. Bones increase in diameter through the process of appositional growth. 2. Bones increase in length by the process of ossification. 3. A person with epiphyseal lines is not growing taller. 4. A person with epiphyseal plates is growing taller.
Overview of Ossification
1. Osteocyte: a mature bone cell trapped in bone matrix. 2. Osteoblast: a cell that stores calcium in bone by making bone matrix. 3. Osteoclast: a cell that releases calcium from bone, increasing blood calcium levels. 4. Osteoclast: parathyroid hormone (PTH) activates this type of cell.
There are four stages in the healing of a bone fracture. Which of the following best illustrates the sequence of these stages? 1. Bony callus formation 2. Bone remodeling 3. Fibrocartilage callus formation 4. Hematoma formation

The Events of Ossification
Cartilage grows here Bone replaces cartilage here Cartilage grows here Bone replaces cartilage here

True or False: a closed, or simple, fracture is one that penetrates through the skin surface
False
Bone Growth, Fractures and Remodeling
Fibrocartilage Callus: Granulation tissue forms Phagocytosis of dead tissue A combination of cartilage matrix, bony matrix, and collagen. Bony Callus: Spongy bone Osteoblasts and osteoclasts migrate and multiply

Greenstick fracture
The first step in bone healing involves the formation of a blood field swelling known as what
Hematoma

calcium and phosphorus
In what type of fracture is the bone broken into many fragments
comminuted
Bone breaks into many fragments
comminuted fracture
A bone fracture where the bone is broken into many fragments is called a
comminuted fractured
broken bone ends are forced into each other
impacted fracture
During the repair of a fracture which of the following cells form the bony Callus
osteoblasts
The bone cells that respond to parathyroid hormone to destroy bone matrix and release calcium into the blood are called
osteoclasts
Which of these bones is most susceptible to fractures
osteoporotic bones
Bone destroying cells known as osteoclasts are activated by the hormone
parathyroid hormone (PTH)
an open, or compound, fracture can be described as when
the broken bone is exposed to the outside
What type of bone is primarily active when bone growth occurs
Osteoblasts
Healing a Bone Fracture
1. Blood-filled swelling 2. Fibrocartilage Callus 3. Bony Callus 4. Bone Remodeling
