Published	01/21/2025	{{c1::Osteology}} is the study of bones.
Published	01/21/2025	{{c1::Hematopoiesis}} is the production of blood cells.
Published	01/21/2025	Hematopoiesis occurs in the {{c1::red bone marrow}} in some spongy bone.
Published	01/21/2025	The four functions of the skeletal system are {{c1::support, protection, body movement, and mineral storage}}.
Published	01/21/2025	In adults, red bone marrow is restricted to {{c1::the axial skeleton, hip bones, and proximal ends of the humerus and femur}}.
Published	01/21/2025	{{c1::Long::long, short, flat, or irregular?}} bones function as levers, joints, and pivots for the body.
Published	01/21/2025	{{c1::Short::long, short, flat, or irregular?}} bones distribute and transfer forces across multiple bones.
Published	01/21/2025	{{c1::Flat::long, short, flat, or irregular?}} bones serve as a surface for muscle attachment and provide protection.
Published	01/21/2025	{{c1::Irregular::long, short, flat, or irregular?}} bones have varied functions including attachment and protection.
Published	01/21/2025	Bones are comprised of {{c1::osseus connective tissue, dense irregular connective tissue, blood vessles/nerves}}.
Published	01/21/2025	{{c1::Compact::compact or spongy?}} bone resists forces from weight and movement.
Published	01/21/2025	{{c1::Compact::compact or spongy?}} bone forms the hard outer casting of all bones.
Published	01/21/2025	{{c1::Spongy::compact or spongy}} bone forms the inner network of bones.
Published	01/21/2025	{{c1::Spongy::compact or spongy}} bone resists stress on bones in multiple directions.
Published	01/23/2025	The {{c1::diaphysis}} is the cylindrical shaft of a bone containing compact bone with a medullary cavity.
Published	01/23/2025	The {{c1::medullary cavity}} is the hollow inside of the diaphysis and contains {{c1::yellow::yellow or red?}} bone marrow.
Published	01/23/2025	The medullary cavity is lined with the {{c1::endosteum}} that contains dense irregular connective tissue.
Published	01/23/2025	The {{c1::epiphysis}} is the ends of the bone.
Published	01/23/2025	{{c1::Articular}} cartilage is hyaline cartilage on the epiphyses.
Published	01/23/2025	The {{c1::epiphyseal plate}} is hyaline cartilage between the diaphysis and the epiphysis. Its function is to produce lengthwise growth of the bo…
Published	01/23/2025	{{c1::Osteoarthritis}} is a disease causes by old age in which the bone wears down, causing them to rub against one another.
Published	01/23/2025	Articular cartilage is surrounded by the {{c1::perichondrium}}.
Published	01/25/2025	{{c1::Periosteum}} is responsible for growth in bone width, while {{c1::epiphyseal plate}} is responsible for growth in bone length.
Published	01/25/2025	{{c1::Perforating fibers}} are responsible for anchoring the periosteum to the bone.
Published	01/25/2025	{{c1::Osteoblasts}} are immature bone cells that create bone by secreting osteoid.
Published	01/25/2025	{{c1::Osteocytes}} are mature bone cells that maintain bone matrix.
Published	01/25/2025	{{c1::Osteoclasts}} break down and resorb (consume) bone.
Published	01/25/2025	{{c1::Insterstitial lamellae}} are incomplete remnants of osteons. They contain no central canal.
Published	01/25/2025	{{c1::Circumferential lamellae}} are rings of bone that run the entire circumference of the shaft.
Published	01/25/2025	In {{c1::endochondral}} ossification the pre-existing tissue is hyaline cartilage. In {{c1::intramembranous}} ossification the pre-existing tissu…
Published	01/26/2025	Primary ossification centers form in the {{c1::diaphysis}}, while secondary ossification centers form in the {{c1::epiphysis}}.
Published	01/26/2025	The steps of fracture repair are: {{c1::fracture hematoma -> fibrocartilaginous (soft) callus -> bony (hard) callus -> remodeling}}.&nbs…
Published	01/28/2025	These are {{c1::flat::flat, short, irregular?}} bones.
Published	01/28/2025	These are {{c1::flat::flat, long, ireggular, short?}} bones.
Published	01/28/2025	These are {{c1::short::long, short, irregular, flat?}} bones.
