Week 10: The Skeletal System
Skeletal System Functions:
1. Support
2. Protection
3. Assistance in movement
4. Mineral homeostasis (storage and release)- Ca+ and phosphorus,
99% of ody’s aliu
5. Blood cell production- red bon marrow in certain bones produces red
blood cells, white blood cells and platelets (HEMOPOIESIS)
6. Triglyceride storage- yellow bone marrow consists of adipose cells
that store triglycerides (energy reserve)
Diaphysis- oe’s shaft
Epiphyses- proximal and distal ends of the bone
Metaphysis- regions between the diaphysis and the epiphyses
Articular Cartilage- thin layer of hyaline cartilage converging the part of
the epiphysis.
Periosteum- connective tissue sheath that surrounds the bone surface.
Consists of a OUTER fibrous layer of dense irregular connective tissue
and an INNER osteogenic layer of cells.
Medullar Cavity- hollow cylindrical space within the diaphysis that
contains fatty yellow bone marrow and blood vessels. Minimises bone
weight
Endosteum- thin membrane that lines the medullar cavity, single layer
of bone-forming cells and connective tissue.
Extracellular matrix
- 15% water
- 30% collagen fibres
- 55% crystallized mineral salts (mostly calcium phosphate and Calcium
hydroxide= Hydroxyapatite
- This crystalizing causes tissue to harden called Calcification
A oe’s hardness depends on crystallized inorganic mineral salts
A oe’s flexibility depeds o it’s ollage fires

1. Osteogenic cells- unspecialized bone stem cells, undergo cell division
that develop into osteoblasts
2. Osteoblasts- bone-building cells, secrete collagen fibres and other
organics to build the extracellular matric of bone tissue. They trap
themselves in their own secretion and become osteocytes
3. Osteocytes- mature bone cells, maintain daily metabolism
4. Osteoclasts- huge ells, it’s plasa erae is deeply folded ito a
ruffled border that releases powerful lysosomal enzymes that digest
proteins of extracellular bone matrix= Resorption
Osteoblasts- build bone
Osteoclasts- carve out bone
80% compact bone, 20% spongy bone
Compact Bone Tissue
- Makes up bulk of diaphysis
- Provides protection and support resists from stresses
- Comprised of repeating structural units called Osteons
- Each Osteons consists of concentric lamellae arranged around a
central canal
- Concentric lamellae are circular plasters of mineralized extracellular
matrix of increasing diameter
Spongy Bone Tissue
- does not contain osteons, provide nourishment to the osteocytes
Blood and nerve supply of bone
Passes into bones from the periosteum
Periosteal arteries enter the diaphysis through perforating canals
Nutrient artery passes through a hole in compact bone called nutrient
foramen
Metaphyseal arteries enter the metaphysis of a long bone
Epiphyseal arteries enter the epiphyses of a long bone
Bone Formation
Bone forms= Ossification/Osteogenesis
2 ways of bone formation in birth.
1. Intramembranous ossification- bones form directly within
mesenchyme
