BONES
OUTLINE PART I
1. History
II. Skeletal and Muscular system
A. Functions of the Skeletal System
(5)
B. Formation of Bone
1. Terms to know (ossification, hydroxyapatite,
Haversian canal, lamella, osteoblasts, periosteum, endosteum, lacuna,
canalicuti, osteociasts)
2. Two Types of Bone (Compact
vs. Cancellous/Spongy)
3. Two types of Ossification
(intramembraneous vs. endochondral)
C. Differences/Similarities of bone
and cartilage (chondrocytes)
D. Types of Bone
1. Long bones (epiphysis and
diaphysis)
2. Short bones Flat bones
3. Irregular bones
Ill. Bone Structure
A. Diaphysis (medullary cavity)
B. Epiphysis
C. Articular cartilage
D. Periosteum (periosteal fibers and
Sharvey's fibers)
E. Epiphyseal cartilage
F. Atrophy of bone
