two hormones for bone

A

calcitonin and parathyroid hormone

260
Q

calcitonin

A

released by thyroid gland

when blood levels are too high

261
Q

what does calcitonin do when blood cels are too high

A

deposists excess calcium in to bones to make stronger more dense bones

262
Q

pth

A

released by parathyroid gland when blood calcium levels are too low

263
Q

what does parathyroid hormone do

A

causes calcium to be removed from bones

it is weaker less dense bones

264
Q

osteomalacia

A

inadequate mineralization of bone

265
Q

what is the issue with osteomalacia

A

lamellae are present but not enough calcium bones are soft and bend due to low dietary calcium and vitamin d

266
Q

riketts

A

osteomalacia in children

more severe due to ongoing growth

267
Q

what does rickets lead to

A

permanent skeletal malformation

268
Q

osteoporosis

A

several diseases where bone removal is faster than bone deposited

269
Q

bone fractures

A

despite their strength, bones can break when exposed to exceptional trauma

270
Q

simple fracture
vs
compound fracture

A

broken bone does not penetrate skin (closed)
vs
bone penetrates skin (open)

271
Q

nondisplaced fracture
vs
displaced fracture

A

broken bone ends retain proper shape of bone (remain in alignment)
vs
broken bone ends are forced out of alignment (must be reduced and realigned)

272
Q

linear fracture
vs
transverse fracture

A

breaks along long axis of bone
vs
perpendicular to long axis

273
Q

comminuted fracture

A

bone is broken in to 3 or more pieces

274
Q

spinal fracture

A

excessive twisting

275
Q

depressed fracture

A

piece is pressed inward

276
Q

greenstick fracture

A

incomplete break of bone

277
Q

compression fracture

A

bone is crushed

278
Q

skeletal cartilage

A

a type of loose connective tissue

279
Q

characteristics of cartilage

A
avascular
aneural
low cell content (protein + ground substance) 
holds A LOT of water
resisten to mechanical forces 
found where flexible material is needed
280
Q

hyaline cartilage

A

most common type of cartilage in body
extra cellular matrix contain thin collagen fibers
firm cartilage

281
Q

hyaline cartilage examples

A

nasal, respiratory, articular, (found in joints)

282
Q

elastic cartilage

A

elastin fibers

more strong and stretch but less firm

283
Q

elastic cartilage examples

A

external ear

284
Q

fibrocartilage

A

less firm but stronger than hyaline
very resisted to mechanical forces
thicker collagen fibers

285
Q

fibrocartilage examples

A

in joints knee, hip, jaw

285
Q

What are periosteums anchored by

A

Collagen fibers

286
Q

structure of short, irregular and flat bones

A

they share a simple design
thin plates of spongy bone covered by compact bone
covered by connective tissue membranes

286
Q

What does the osteogenic layer contain

A

Cells that modify bone

287
Q

diploe

A

name of spongy bone in flat bones

287
Q

Why does red bone marrow lose function

A

Due to age

288
Q

What is appositional growth

A

New bone secreted on to the surface of old bone

289
Q

Why does the epiphyseal plate shut

A

Cartilage becomes bone

290
Q

What happens after the epiphyseal plate become bone

A

It becomes the epiphyseal line or metaphysis

291
Q

What causes epiphyseal plate to shut

A

Sex hormones

292
Q

Primary osteoporosis

A

Only seen in older women due to menopause

Osteoblasts begin to lose function

293
Q

Secondary osteoporosis

A

Any other reason for osteoporosis
