MCPHS Anatomy & Physiology Exam 2
Mature bone matrix is composed of _________ material like collagen and proteoglycans and ________
material like hydroxyapatite. - organic, inorganic
Describe the overall composition of bone tissue. - Bone consists of bone cells and matrix. The
bones cells create the matrix, which is constantly being maintained and replaced.
Which of the following surrounds cartilage? - perichondrium
Bone tissue consists of extracellular bone ____ and bone cells. - matrix
What are osteoblasts? - Bone-forming cells that produce and package matrix collagen and
proteoglycans
identify the 4 components of the skeletal system - bones, tendons, cartilages, ligaments
What are mature bone cells found within lacunae of compact bone called? - osteocytes
What is the perichondrium? - connective tissue surrounding cartilage
Which of the following describes the lacunae of osseous tissue? - Spaces between lamellae that
contain osteocytes
What is an osteoclast? - A bone-destroying cell that plays an important role in bone remodeling
By weight, mature bone matrix is mostly _____ material. - inorganic
a _____ bone is the traditional model for overall bone structure - long
, Immature bone cells that produce the organic bone matrix are called ______. - osteoblasts
The center portion of a long bone is called the - diaphysis
The hollow space in which an osteocyte resides is called a(n) - lacuna
The bone cells responsible for the breakdown of bone tissue are called - osteoclasts
The end of a long bone is called a(n) - epiphysis
The diaphysis is the center portion of a(n) _____ bone. - long
The layer of connective tissue lining internal surfaces of bones is called - endosteum
Flat bones contain an interior framework of _____ bone sandwiched between two layers of _____ bone.
Multiple choice question. - spongy, compact
During development, some bones arise from embryonic connective tissue membranes in a process
known as _____ bone formation. - intramembranous
What is the expanded end of a long bone to which tendons and ligaments attach called? -
epiphysis
In which zone of the epiphyseal plate are chondrocytes multiplying and aligning into longitudinal
columns of flattened lacunae? - zone of cell proliferation
