Bone Classification
Name Description Location
1. Long bones 2 epiphysis and 1 diaphysis Extremities
2. Short bones cube shaped (6-7 sides) Wrist, ankle bones
3. Flat bones 2 layers of compact, Skull (cranium) with spongy inside Sternum
4. Irregular bones very irregular shape Facial, Vertebral column
5. Sesamoid Bones develop within a tendon.
6. Wormian Bones – are tiny bones within the skull that lie between major skull bones.7-2
Bones are classified by their shape:
Bone Classification
7-2
Bones are classified by their shape:
Parts of a Long Bone
• EpiphysisEpiphysis – expanded end of the bone (distal & proximal)
• consists mainly of spongy bone• surrounded by a thin layer of compact bone
• DiaphysisDiaphysis – shaft • consist of a central medullary cavity (yellow marrow)• surrounded by a thick collar of compact bone.
• CompactCompact bone bone – solid, dense, and smooth• SpongySpongy bone bone – has canals and open spaces filled with marrow
7-3
Compact and Spongy Bone
7-4
• ArticularArticular cartilage cartilage – pad of cartilage on the epiphyses where bones articulate or join.
• Shock absorber
• PeriosteumPeriosteum – outer, fibrous, protective covering of diaphysis
• richly supplied with blood lymph vessels•contains bone forming and destroying cells• serves as insertions for tendons and ligament
• EndosteumEndosteum – inner lining of the medullary cavity. • contains layer of osteoblasts and osteoclasts
• Medullary cavityMedullary cavity – cavity of the diaphysis • contains marrow (red when young and yellow when older)
• TrabeculaeTrabeculae – spongy bone consisting of branching bony plates.
• MarrowMarrow – specialized type of soft connective tissue (red and yellow)
Red Marrow – formation of red/white blood cellsYellow MarrowYellow Marrow – replaces red marrow when it
becomes depleted• Epiphyseal lineEpiphyseal line – junction of the growth plate.
Parts of a Long Bone• epiphysis
• distal• proximal
• diaphysis• compact bone• spongy bone• articular cartilage• periosteum• endosteum• medullary cavity• trabeculae• marrow
• red• yellow 7-3
• Osteon (Haversian system) – basic unit of bone• Central canal (Haversian canal)– center of an
osteon that contains blood vessels• Volkmann’s canal – (transverse canals) –
contain larger blood vessels.• Lacuna – hollow cavity in bone.• Bone matrix – made of collagen that adds
strength, which enables a bone to bend increasing flexibility.
Microscopic Structureof Compact Bone
Types of Bone Cells
1. Osteocyte – is a mature bone cell that transports nutrients/wastes.
2. Osteoblasts – A bone forming cell.
3. Osteoclasts – a cell responsible for eroding bone.
Once a bone has been formed, it is continuously Once a bone has been formed, it is continuously remodeled throughout life. This process involves the remodeled throughout life. This process involves the action of osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and specific action of osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and specific hormones.hormones.
Bone Cells
• Your distal femurdistal femur is replaced every four months
• Diaphysis of the femur may not be fully replaced during one’s life
• Bone maturation and remodeling continue until the age of 21 in both sexes.
Did You Know!!!
• OssificationOssification – formation of bone by osteoblasts.• OsteogenesisOsteogenesis – the development of membranelike
connective tissue into bone.• The “skeleton” of an embryo is composed of
fibrous CT membranes that are loosely shaped like bones.
• The “skeleton” provides supporting structures for ossification to begin
• At about 6-7 weeks gestation, ossification begins and continues throughout adulthood.
Bone Development and Growth
Two Types of Ossification
Intramembranous Ossification• bones form on or within a fibrous CT membrane• flat bones (clavicles and skull bones)• happens mainly in the skull • complete ossification does occur until a few months after birth. WHY?
Endochondral Ossification (endo = inside, chondro = cartilage)• bones begin as hyaline cartilage• most bones of the skeleton• endochondral bones
7-6
Endochondral Ossification
• hyaline cartilage model• primary ossification center• secondary ossification centers
• epiphyseal plate• osteoblasts vs. osteoclasts
7-7
Growth at the Epiphyseal Plate
First layer of cells• closest to the end of epiphysis• resting cells• anchors epiphyseal plate to epiphysis
Second layer of cells• many rows of young cells• undergoing mitosis
7-8
Epiphyseal plate (line) – place where longitudinal growth
of bone takes place.
Growth at the Epiphyseal Plate
Third layer of cells• older cells• left behind when new cells appear• cells enlarging and becoming calcified
Fourth layer of cells• thin• dead cells• calcified intercellular substance

Bone Repair
Four Steps of RepairFour Steps of Repair
1. Hematoma – 6-8 hours a blood clot forms
2.2. Fibrocartilagious CallusFibrocartilagious Callus – fibrocartilage fills the space between the ends of the broken bone.
3.3. Bony CallusBony Callus – Osteoblasts produce trabeculae of spongy bone which joins the broken bones together. (3-4 months)
4.4. RemodelingRemodeling – Osteoblasts build new compact bone. Osteoclasts reabsorb the spongy bone, creating a new medullary cavity. 7-10
Fractures
Types of Fractures
1. green stick2. fissured3. comminuted4. transverse5. oblique6. spiral
7-62
• A number of factors influence bone development, growth, and repair.
• Nutrition, exposure to sunlight, and hormonal secretions are all examples.
1.1. MineralsMinerals – needed for bone remodeling1. Calcium2. Phosphorus 3. Magnesium4. Boron
Factors Affecting Bone Development, Growth, and Repair
2. VitaminsVitamins – growth, remodeling, and repair
Vit D – increased intestinal absorption
of calcium.
Vit C – help maintain bone matrix.
Vit A – controls osteoblasts and clasts activity.
Vit B12 – role in osteoblasts activity
Factors Affecting Bone Development, Growth, and Repair
3. HormonesHormones – needed for bone growth and remodeling.
1. Human Growth Hormone (hGH)
- secreted by pituitary.
- responsible for the general growth of all tissue.
- Stimulates reproduction of cells at epiphyseal plate.
Factors Affecting Bone Development, Growth, and Repair
2. Sex Hormone – Testosterone
- promotes new bone growth
3. Thyroid hormone
- Stimulates replacement of cartilage by bone in epiphyseal plate.
- parathyroid and calcitonin.
4. ExerciseExercise - increases bone growth.
Factors Affecting Bone Development, Growth, and Repair
Disorders Affecting Bone Development, Growth, and Repair
• Deficiency of Vitamin A – retards bone development• Deficiency of Vitamin C – results in fragile bones • Insufficient Growth Hormone – dwarfism• Excessive Growth Hormone – gigantism• Insufficient Thyroid Hormone – delays bone growth• Rickets – lack of vitamin D, calcium, or phosphate. It leads to softening and weakening of the bones• Osteopenia – bone mineral density (BMD) that is lower than normal peak BMD• Osteomalasia – softening of the bones due to a lack of vitamin D or a problem with the body's ability to break down and use this vitamin 7-11
Levers
Four Basic Components1. rigid bar – bones2. fulcrum – point on which bar moves;joint3. object moved against resistance4. force – supplies energy for movement; muscles
