Summary Introduction

Introduction:

The process of the bone repair comprises the formation of the bone callus. The osteoblasts which are the bone forming cells helps in forming the definitive callus around the fractured ends. The fibrocartilage callus forms due to the formation of the chondroblasts and the fibroblasts. This formation occurs on a temporary basis at the area of the fractured bones. The formation of the callus is faster in children as compared to the adults.

The perichondium and periosteum are made of a.hyaline cartilage b.Elastic cartilage c.loose connective tissue  d.dense irregular(fibrous)connective tissue  e.Smooth muscle
Arrange the five functional layers of the epiphyseal plate in the correct order, from  diaphysis side to epiphyseal side.  1. Zone where chondrocytes undergo apoptosis and the matrix become calcified. 2. Zone  where older chondrocytes enlarge and signal the surrounding matrix to calcify. 3. Zone where osteoclasts digest the calcified cartilage and osteoblasts replace it with actual  bone tissue 4. Zone where chondroblasts divide quickly and push the epiphysis away from the diaphysis 5. Zone of small, inactive cartilage cells
Explain the consequences; a. if simple columnar epithelium replaced non-keratinized stratified squamous epithelium that lines the mouth b. if tendons were dense elastic connective tissue instead of dense collagenous connective tissue c.if bones made entirely of elastic bandage
