Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Microscopic Anatomy of Bone  Osteon (Haversian system)  A unit of bone containing central canal and matrix rings  Central (Haversian) canal  Opening in the center of an osteon  Carries blood vessels and nerves  Perforating (Volkman’s) canal  Canal perpendicular to the central canal  Carries blood vessels and nerves

14. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Formation of the Human Skeleton  In embryos, the skeleton is primarily hyaline cartilage  During development, much of this cartilage is replaced by bone  Cartilage remains in isolated areas  Bridge of the nose  Parts of ribs  Joints

15. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Bone Growth (Ossification)  Epiphyseal plates allow for lengthwise growth of long bones during childhood  New cartilage is continuously formed  Older cartilage becomes ossified  Cartilage is broken down  Enclosed cartilage is digested away, opening up a medullary cavity  Bone replaces cartilage through the action of osteoblasts

16. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Bone Growth (Ossification)  Bones are remodeled and lengthened until growth stops  Bones are remodeled in response to two factors  Blood calcium levels  Pull of gravity and muscles on the skeleton  Bones grow in width (called appositional growth)

Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Types of Bone Cells  Osteocytes—mature bone cells  Osteoblasts—bone-forming cells  Osteoclasts—bone-destroying cells  Break down bone matrix for remodeling and release of calcium in response to parathyroid hormone  Bone remodeling is performed by both osteoblasts and osteoclasts

22. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Bone Fractures  Fracture—break in a bone  Types of bone fractures  Closed (simple) fracture—break that does not penetrate the skin  Open (compound) fracture— broken bone penetrates through the skin  Bone fractures are treated by reduction and immobilization

24. Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings Repair of Bone Fractures  Hematoma (blood-filled swelling) is formed  Break is splinted by fibrocartilage to form a callus  Fibrocartilage callus is replaced by a bony callus  Bony callus is remodeled to form a permanent patch
