)



axial skeleton includes the skull, vertebrae, and ribs


appendicular skeleton limbs, pectoral girdle, and pelvic girdle


compact bone and spongy/cancellous bone two basic bone classes


compact bone bone class that is smooth and homogeneous


spongy/cancellous bone bone class that has small trabeculae (bars) & lots of space


long bones, short bones, flat bones, irregular bones four major groups of bones


long bones longer than they are wide; made mostly of compact bone (example: femur)


short bones cube shaped; mostly spongy bone (example: tarsals/carpals)


flat bones thin, 2 wafer-like layers of compact bone with spongy cone in between (example:
skull)


irregular bones irregular shaped bones (example: vertebrae)


epiphysis (long bone structure) end of bone (distal & proximal)


periosteum (long bone structure) covers the bone; Sharpey's fiber from this penetrate the bone


articular cartilage (long bone structure) covers epiphyseal surface instead of periosteum

, epiphyseal plate (long bone structure) area of hyaline cartilage where longitudinal growth of bones occur (seen as
epiphyseal line in adults)


endosteum (long bone structure) lines the shaft


medullary cavity (long bone structure) hollow central interior. Contains yellow bone marrow in adults, red bone marrow
in infants


yellow bone marrow (long bone structure) composed of adipose tissue (fat cells)


red bone marrow (long bone structure) consists of immature red and white blood cells and stem cells. Used to produce
blood cells


osteon (haversian system) (micro view of compact bone) central canal and concentric lamellae with haversian/central canal in center


haversian/central canal (micro view of compact bone) runs along length of bone; carries blood, lymph vessels & nerves


canaliculus/canaliculi (micro view of compact bone) tiny canals radiating outward from central canal (single canal = canaliculus). They
connect the central canal to small chambers in the lamellae called lacunae


osteocytes (micro view of compact bone) mature bone cells found inside lacunae


lacunae (micro view of compact bone) small chambers that 'house' the mature bone cells (osteocytes)


perforating/volkmann's canals (micro view of compact canals that run into compact bone and marrow cavity from the periosteum
bone)


shin splints dull ache in shin


medial tibial stress syndrome (MTSS) most causes of shin pain are classified as:


MTSS pain caused by - inflammation of the periosteum
- inflammation of the perforating fibers


contributing factors to MTSS mechanical factors (flat feet, inversion of feet with impact exercises)


skeletal cartilage named because of their LOCATION in the skeleton


articular (skeletal cartilage) covers bone ends of movable joints


costal (skeletal cartilage) connecting ribs to sternum


laryngeal (skeletal cartilage) construct the larynx


tracheal & bronchial (skeletal cartilage) reinforce passageways of respiratory system


nasal (skeletal cartilage) supports nose
