Bone new
What is open/compound?
This zone is where the surrounding cartilage matrix calcifies which causes the chondrocytes to die and deteriorate.
What is the calcification zone?
What is endochondral ossification?
This is the shaft of long bones.
What is the diaphysis?
This type of bone growth is growth in the width of bone.
With this type of fracture, the bone ends retain their normal position
What is non displaced?
This is the inactive zone of cartilage located on the epiphyseal side.
What is the resting zone?
The clavicle is made by this type of ossification.
What is intramembranous ossification?
This are the structural repeating units of compact bone.
What are osteons?
This hormone is the most important at stimulating activity of the epiphyseal plate for babies and children.
What is growth hormone?
This type of disease involves excessive or haphazard bone deposits that lead to a higher spongy to compact bone ratio
What is Paget's disease?
This is the zone where chondroblasts actively undergo mitosis.
What is the proliferation zone?
This type of ossification begins with a fibrous connective tissue membrane formed by mesenchymal cells.
What is intramembranous ossification.
Rings of extracellular matrix that radiate away from the central canal of the osteon. The collagen in each one runs in a different direction which results in increased resistance to stress.
What is a Lamellae?
This is the term for adjacent osteoblasts and osteoclasts that work together to change bone.
What is a remodeling unit?
With this bone disease, the bones are poorly mineralized due to inadequate intake of calcium salts leading to soft weak bones
What is osteomalacia?
This is the zone where the osteoclasts break down spicules and osteoblasts lay down osteoid.
What is the ossification zone?
This is the embryonic tissue that is needed for ossification.
What is mesenchyme?
These hairlike canals connect the lacunae together allowing for the passage of nutrients between cells.
What are canaliculi?
This hormone is released when blood calcium levels are low in order to raise the levels back to normal.
What is parathyroid hormone?
This is formed due to the breaking of blood vessels when bone is fractured
What is a hematoma?
This is the area where older chondrocytes are enlarged. Some of the lacuna erode which creates interconnecting spaces.
What is the hypertrophic zone?
This is what carries blood vessels, bone cells, nerves, and more to the developing bone.
These canals connect the central canals to each other and to spongy bone.
What are perforating canals? (or what are Volkmann's canals?)
These are the mineral salts of bone.
What are hydroxyapatites? (made of calcium phosphate and calcium hydroxide)
