Questions and Answers

What distinguishes the periosteum from the endosteum?

  • The periosteum contains spongy bone, whereas the endosteum contains compact bone.
  • The periosteum is a hard connective tissue, whereas the endosteum is soft.
  • The periosteum is a specific connective tissue present outside the bone, whereas the endosteum is the interior part of the bone. (correct)
  • The periosteum is present inside the bone, whereas the endosteum is present outside the bone.

If a bone fracture occurred in the diaphysis, and a doctor mentioned issues with the bone's primary marrow source, which type of marrow would be of concern?

  • Yellow bone marrow, due to its presence in the diaphysis or shaft. (correct)
  • Neither red nor yellow bone marrow, as marrow is not found in the diaphysis.
  • Red bone marrow, due to its location in the epiphysis.
  • Both red and yellow bone marrow equally.

In bone remodeling, how do osteoclasts facilitate changes in bone structure and composition?

  • By destroying bone through phagocytosis, allowing for the release of calcium and phosphorus. (correct)
  • By transporting calcium from bone into the blood stream.
  • By secreting unmineralized ground substances to build new bone.
  • By transforming into osteocytes, embedding within the bone matrix.

Bone (Osteo)

  • Bone is hard connective tissue made up of different bone cells
  • Periosteum is a specific connective tissue present outside the bone
  • Both ends of the bone are the epiphysis
  • The region between both epiphysis is the diaphysis, or shaft
  • The interior part of the bone is called endosteum
  • The peripheral part of endosteum is compact bone
  • The inside of compact bone has a soft region called spongy bone
  • Most of the red bone marrow is present in the epiphysis, but some is in the diaphysis
  • Yellow bone marrow is present in the diaphysis or shaft
  • Blood vessels are also present and transport blood to different parts of the body
  • The liver destroys red blood cells after 120 days
  • Every blood cell is produced in bone marrow, except platelets

Bone Cells (Osteogenic Cells)

  • Bone cells include osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts
  • Osteoblasts are bone-forming cells
  • Osteoblasts are uninucleated
  • Osteoblasts secrete unmineralized ground substances
  • Osteocytes are bone-maturing cells
  • An osteocyte is a bone cell after the accumulation of matrix
  • Elastin is a protein created by fibroblasts that form a chain of elastic fiber
  • Osteoblasts eventually convert into osteocytes
  • Osteocytes are mononucleated
  • Osteocytes transport calcium from bone into blood
  • Osteoclasts are bone-destructive cells and are called osteoclasts
  • Osteoclasts destroys extra bone through phagocytosis
  • Osteoclasts are multinucleated
  • Osteoclasts secrete calcium and phosphorus into blood
  • Osteoclasts participate in demineralization, which is the removal of minerals
  • More osteoclasts indicates more soft bone

Cartilage (Chondrio)

  • Collagen is a group of proteins found mainly in the connective tissue of skin
  • Almost 30% of the body's protein is in the form of collagen
  • Cartilage is connective tissue made up of chondrocytes, or cartilage cells
  • All cartilage have same composition
  • A specific connective tissue present outside the cartilage is perichondrium
  • Inside the perichondrium matrix is collagen and elastin

Joints

  • Joints are where two or more bones articulate

Fibrous Joints

  • Fibrous joints are held together with the help of a fibrous band
  • These joints are immovable and mainly consist of collagen
  • Fibrous joints are present in the head region called sutures
  • Fibrous joints are present between the radius and ulna

Cartilaginous Joints

  • Cartilaginous joints are joints in which cartilage is present between bone
  • These joints are slightly moveable
  • These joints have either no cavity or fluid
  • Joint of vertebral column present in the hip region is called pubic symphysis

Bone Fracture

  • Bone fracture is the breakdown of bone
  • Types of fractures include simple, compound, and complex
  • Simple fracture is closed fractures where the fractured bone remains inside the muscle
  • Compound fracture is an open fracture where the fractured bone comes out of skeletal muscle
  • Complex fracture is where neighboring bones damage a broken bone

Bone Repair

  • Hematoma Formation: After the breakdown of bone, clotted blood will form and this clot is is known as a haemoatoma
  • After bone fracture the blood capillaries will rupture and cause hemorrhage
  • Deficiency of nutrients in the blood cells occurs at the fracture area
  • Pain and swelling are induced

Soft Callus Formation

  • Soft Callus Forms after Fibrocartiliginous Callus Formation: Soft callus is a secretion composed of porous material
  • Soft callus is secreted from Forming Osteoblasts
  • Area undergoes phagocytosis to clear the damaged cells
  • Capillaries grow into bone and start to provide nutrient to the growing cells
  • The process takes appoximately 3-4 weeks
  • Callus that is formed has a porous material that clears clotted blood so bonds can be made

Bony Callus Formation

  • Phase which involves replacement of cartilage by bone forms bony callus over time
  • In this Cartilage gets destroyed by osteoclast
  • Ends of bones will join completely and forms bony callus in the 4th to 8th week.
  • Bony Callus will be stiff while still fractured

Bone Remodelling

  • Phase in which remodelling of the bone structure results in fracture is called bone remodelling
  • Retains its previous condition is called as bone remodelling
  • Fracture bone normally glows more rapidly as compared to the original bone.
  • Extra bone is degraded
  • Differentiated area cannot be degraded
  • Dislocation-Of joint represents the displacement of the joint is termed from its region Reasons
  • Phematoid-Arthritis
