Bone Biology Study Guide: Functions, Shapes, and Remodeling, Study notes of Physiology

This study guide covers various aspects of bone biology, including functions, shapes, and remodeling. Learn about the five functions of bones with examples, the four main shapes of bones, the purpose and construction of an osteon, reasons for bone's resistance to torsion stresses, and the process of bone remodeling. Also, explore different bone markings and their purposes, as well as various types of fractures.

  9. ex: What is the main purpose of a sesamoid bone? Draw a long bone and label all of its parts. diaphysis / epiphysis / epiphyseal growth plate / articular cartilage / periosteum (2 layers) / Sharpey’s fibers / nutrient foramen / medullary cavity / endosteum What is the purpose of the medullary cavity?

pg. 2 Draw and label an osteon. What type of bone does the osteon construct? lamella (3 types) / central (Haversian) canal / perforating (Volkman’s) canal / blood vessels / canaliculi / lacuna / osteocyte List 3 reasons bone is so resistant to torsion stresses.

Describe how short, flat, and irregular bones are constructed. (diploe, trabecullae, etc.) What is the purpose of the diploe? On birth, which part of a long bone is osseous? Which parts remain cartilage? Describe how an EGP leads to bone growth. Which hormones are involved in causing it to expand? Which hormone causes it to stop expanding?

pg. 4 Marking description purpose(s) facet – ramus – foramen – fissure – fossa – groove – meatus – sinus – Identify the various types of fractures. Fracture description significance closed (simple) – open (compound) – comminuted – compression – depressed – spiral – greenstick – Pott’s – Colles – epiphyseal (Salter-Harris) – avulsion – impacted (torus) –
