    Study Notes

    Bone Composition

    • Bone is composed of calcium phosphate (in the form of hydroxyapatite crystals) and calcium carbonate.
    • Other ions present in bone include sodium, magnesium, and ferrous ions.

    Periosteum

    • The periosteum covers the external surfaces of bones.
    • It is a layer of cells that exhibit a characteristic underlying protein structure.
    • The periosteum is the unit of bone cells.

    Bone Cells

    • Bone cells originate from osteoblasts.
    • When osteoblasts are trapped within lacunae (cavities), they become bone cells.
    • Bone cells are numerous and irregularly arranged.

    Temporary Bone

    • Temporary bone is replaced later by secondary bone.
    • The temporary bone is characterized by circumferential lamellae that surround the central marrow cavity just beneath the endosteum.

    Compact Bone

    • The characteristic structural unit in compact bone is the circumferential lamellae.
