SKELETAL SYSTEM Lamellar Bone – mature boneLamellae – thin, concentric sheets or layers in bone
Component of Skeletal System
- Bones Spongy Bone
- Cartilages - less bone matrix and more space
- Tendons - consists trabeculae
- Ligaments
Trabeculae - interconnecting rods or plates of bone
Functions of the Skeletal System - have spaces filled with bone marrow and
1. Body support blood vessels
2. Protect organs - surfaces are covered with single layer of
3. Movement osteoblast and few osteoclasts
4. Mineral storage Compact Bone
5. Blood cell production - more bone matrix and less space
- can also be called cortical bone
Bone Histology - solid, outer layer of bones
- Bone, cartilage, tendons, ligaments are
connective tissues Osteon – functional unit of compact bone
- Determined by large composition of ECM
- composed of lamellae
- ECM – contains collagen, ground substance,
water, minerals, other molecules Central Canal/Haversian Canal – provide passageway for
blood vessels and nerves
Collagen
- lined with endosteum
- provides flexibility, strength, support
- resist pulling Lamellae – concentric rings bone matrix which surround
- most abundant the central canal
- osteocytes are located in spaces called
Ground substance – contains proteoglycans that traps
lacunae between the lamellar rings
water which help cartilage to be smooth and resilient
Canaliculi – small tunnels radiate between lacunae across
ECM of tendons and ligaments – contains large amount of
lamellae
collagen fibers (making it very tough)
- connect osteocytes to one another
Bone Matrix - provide transport of nutrients and remove
- 35% organic, 65% inorganic wastes
- Organic – collagen & proteoglycans
Structure of Long Bone
- Inorganic – hydroxyapatite (Ca10 (PO4)6
Diaphysis – center portion of the bone which is composed
(OH)2 -calcium phosphate crystal
of compact bone
- The mineral component gives bone
Medullary Cavity – hollow center of bone that contains
compression strength
bone marrow
Bone Cells
Epiphyses – ends of a long bone; contain mostly spongy
Osteoblasts – responsible for the formation of bone, repair,
bone with an outer layer of compact bone
and remodeling
Osteoblasts – produce collagen and proteoglycans Articular Cartilage – hyaline cartilage that covers the end
of long bone; within joints
- Secrete high concentration of calcium and
phosphate that forms hydroxyapatite Epiphyseal Plate – located between epiphysis and
diaphysis
Osteocytes – maintain bone matrix and form osteoclast
- where growth in bone length occurs
after matrix has surrounded it; long-lived
Epiphyseal line – occurs when bone stops growing in
Lacunae – spaces which houses osteocytes
length and epiphyseal plate becomes ossified
Canaliculi – long, narrow spaces that house cell extensions
Bone Marrow – soft tissue inside the cavities in spongy
Osteoclasts – bone-resorbing cells / bone-destroying cells bone and medullary cavity
Bone Reabsorption – bone repair and remodeling by Red Bone Marrow – produce blood cells
removing existing bone
Yellow Bone Marrow – stores fat
Bone Breakdown – important for mobilizing crucial
