Concept explainers
To discuss:
The characteristics of osseous tissue; difference between the spongy and compact bone; relationship of periosteum to bone.
Introduction:
Connective tissues are abundant and a widely distributed tissue type among the other tissue classes. It plays an important role in connection, and for separation of tissues and organs. It is a primary tissue because it connects the bones and cartilage for shape and movement of organisms. It fills the spaces between the tissue and organ to provide structural and

ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY THE UNITY OF FORM
- The area of a bone where the nutrient foramen passes forms what kind of bone marking? a hole a facet a canal a fissurearrow_forwardBone tissue can be described as ________. dead calcified tissue cartilage the skeletal system dense, hard connective Issuearrow_forwardA cartilaginous joint ________. has a joint cavity is called a symphysis when the bones are united by fibrocartilage anchors the teeth to the jaws is formed by a wide sheet of fibrous connective tissuearrow_forward
- The Haversian canal: is arranged as rods or plates contains the bone’s blood vessels and nerve fibers is responsible for the lengthwise growth of long bones synthesizes and secretes matrixarrow_forwardThe first type of bone to form during fracture repair is ________ bone. compact lamellar spongy densearrow_forwardThe epiphyseal plate: is arranged as rods or plates contains the bone’s blood vessels and nerve fibers is responsible for the lengthwise growth of long bones synthesizes and secretes bone matrixarrow_forward
- 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 cellsarrow_forwardBRIEFLY explain why bone tissue is classified as a connective tissue.arrow_forward3. Perforating and central canals are present in compact bone. Why isn't a canal system like this required in cancellous bone? 4. Chondrocytes die as a result of calcification of cartilage during endochondral ossification. However, ossification of the bone matrix does not result in osteocyte death. Explain. 5. When the epiphyseal cartilage becomes ossified, growth at the epiphyseal plate ceases. When the epiphysis stops growing, the articular cartilage does not become ossified. Explain why it is advantageous for the articular cartilage not to be ossified.arrow_forward

Shape of bone Structure of the bone Examples.arrow_forwardSecreted matrix components at the cell surface which are in contact with the older bone matrix and produce a layer of new but not yet calcified material called?arrow_forwardThe extra cellular matrix (ECM) of bone is considered to be a composite material made up of organic and inorganic matter. What makes up the organic and inorganic portions of the matrix? How does the cell you described in question #8 break down this matrix?arrow_forward
