They develop into osteocytes & create ridges w/ room for blood vessels. Periosteum now becomes the endosteum that lines the tunnel. Concentric lamellae are formed by secreting osteoblasts & a new osteon is created. Osteoblasts under periosteum deposit new outer circumferential lamellae, further ^ thickness as additional periosteal become enclosed, the growth process continues. New bone is deposited on outer surface. The bone tissue lining the medullary cavity is destroyed by osteoclasts in the endosteum. The medullary cavity enlarges as the bone ^ in thickness.

Chondroblasts are called Chondrocytes when they embed themselves in the cartilage matrix, consisting of proteoglycan and collagen fibers, until they lie in the matrix lacunae.

(spongy bone tissue in hip bones, ribs, breastbone, vertebrae, & ends of certain long bones where red bone marrow is stored &, thus where hemopoiesis (blood cell production) occurs in adults.

Intramembranous Ossification Step 1. development of ossification center Step 2. calcification Step 3. formation of trabeculae Step 4. development of periosteum

Step 1. Chemical messages cause the mesenchymal cells to cluster & differentiate into osteoblasts. (the site is called an ossification center) Osteoblasts secrete the organic extracellular matrix until they are surrounded by it. Step 2. Surrounded osteoblasts mature into osteocytes. they lie in lacunae & extend their narrow cytoplasmic processes into canaliculi, carrying out daily metabolism. calcium & other mineral salts are deposited & the matrix hardens (calcification) Step 3. As matrix forms, it develops into trabeculae. blood vessels grow into the spaces between the trabeculae. Connective tissue associated with the blood vessels differentiates into red bone marrow. Step 4. Mesenchyme condenses at the periphery of the bone & becomes periosteum. A thin layer of compact bone replaces the surface (spongy bone remains in the center). The newly formed bone is regularly, remodelled (destroyed & reformed) as the bone is transformed into its adult size & shape.

Endochondral ossification 6 steps?

Step 1. Development of the cartilage model Step 2. Growth of the cartilage model Step 3. Development of the primary ossification center Step 4. Development of the medullary (marrow) cavity Step 5. Development of the secondary ossification centers Step 6. Formation of articular cartilage & the epiphyseal plate

Endochondral Ossification -Step 1. Development of the cartilage model.

Step 1. Endochondral ossification -the replacement of cartilage by bone. Mesenchymal cells cluster due to chemical attraction once again & become chondroblasts (cartilage builders). They then arrange in the shape of the bone. a membrane called the perichondrium forms around the outside.

Endochondral Ossification -Step 2. Growth of the cartilage model

Step 2. Chondroblasts become buried in the cartilage extracellular matrix, & mature into chondrocytes. Growth in length is from continual cell division of chondrocytes & secretion of matrix called interstitial growth. Growth in thickness is from the addition of extracellular matrix to the periphery called appositional growth.

Endochondral Ossification -Step 3. Development of the primary ossification center

Step 3. Chondrocytes hypertrophy & the cartilage matrix calcifies. Some chondrocytes die due to poor nutrition circulation & lacunae form & cavities along with the periosteal capillaries grow into the disintegrating calcified cartilage, inducing growth of a primary ossification center. Here bone tissue will replace most of the cartilage. Osteoblasts deposit bone matrix over calcified cartilage, forming spongy bone trabeculae. Primary ossification spreads toward both ends of the cartilage model.

Perichondrium What type of tissue is perichondrium and what does it consist of?

The perichondrium is a layer of dense irregular connective tissue that surrounds the cartilage of developing bone. It consists of two separate layers: an outer fibrous layer and inner chondrogenic layer. The fibrous layer contains fibroblasts, which produce collagenous fibers. The chondrogenic layer remains undifferentiated and can form chondroblasts or chondrocytes.

Endochondral Ossification -Step 4. Development of the medullary (marrow) cavity

The primary ossification center continues to grow osteoclasts breakdown some of the newly formed spongy bone trabeculae. The medullary (marrow) cavity in the diaphysis forms. Most of the wall of the diaphysis is replaced by compact bone.

Perforating (Sharpey's) Fibers

Thick bundles of collagen fibers that work to attach the periosteum to underlying bone.

Articular Cartilage

Thin layer of hyaline cartilage covering the epiphysis where the bone forms a joint, reduces friction, improves fit & absorbs shock at freely movable joints.

(Central) Haversian Canals

Vertical canals that connect with those of the medullary cavity.

Those at risk of Osteoporosis (v bone mass resulting in porous bones)

White, thin menopausal, smoking, drinking female with family history. Athletes who are not menstruating d.t. v body fat & v estrogen levels. People allergic to milk with eating disorders whose intake of calcium is too low.

Effects of Exercise on Bone

Within limits, bone tissue alters strength in response to changes in mechanical stress. Becomes stronger through increased deposition of mineral salts & production of collagen fibers by osteoblasts (bone building).

Where are osteogenic cells found?

Within the inner layer of the periosteum and endosteum.

Falling on an outreached hand.

Wrist, scaphoid bone, radius, humerus, & clavicle fracture. Where force ultimately ends, will determine location & extent of fracture.

BLASTS =

buds or spouts (blasts in bone or any other connective tissue secrete extracellular matrix)

Cytes =

cell (cytes in bone, or any other tissue <maintain the tissue)

Bones are made of _____ _____ & _____ _____.

collagen fibers, calcium salts

What does Red bone marrow consist of?

developing blood cells, adipocytes, fobroblasts and macrophages w/in a network of reticular fibers. Present developing bones of fetus and some adult bones (pelvic, ribs, breast bone, vertebrae, skull, ends of arm & thigh bones)

Canaliculi connect ________ with one another & with the central canal. Provides many routes for nutrients & oxygen to reach osteocytes & for removal of wastes.

lacunae

Diaphysis of a bone increases in ________ during interstitial growth, because of ______ ________in the epiphyseal plate.

length, cell division

Impacted Fracture

one side of fracture driven into the interior of other side

Bone functions

posture, mm attachment, protection, hematopoetic (creates blood cells)

Bone tissue consists of widely _______ ________ surrounded by large amounts of ________ _______.

widely separated cells surrounded by large amounts of extracellular matrix
