Ultimate Exam On Bones! Trivia Quiz

Compact bone is also called dense bone. Compact bone has the Haversian system. Immature bone is woven bone. It is a nonlamellar bone or bundle bone. Spongy bone is also referred to as cancellous bone. The mineralized tissue is seen as spicules. Marrow spaces are also present.

The perimysium is the connective tissue sheath that surrounds muscle fascicles. The periosteum is the connective tissue covering of a bone. The perichondrium is the connective tissue that surrounds cartilage. The perineurium is the covering of nerve fascicles. The endosteum is the lining of the inner bone (the side which abuts the medullary cavity). Note from Sarah Bellham: The prefix "peri" means around, such as in the word "perimeter". The prefix "endo" means within or inner, such as in "endosteum", "endocrine", "endoscope"

An osteoclast is a multinucleated cell involved in the degradation of bone. It is a bone-resorbing cell. An osteon is a cylindrical structure with bone. An osteon is also called a Haversian system. The mature bone cell is called an osteocyte. It sits in a space, called a lacuna. An osteoblast is an immature bone cell. The osteoblast is the bone-forming cell. Osteoid is an unmineralized bone matrix.

Red marrow contains active hematopoietic tissue. Yellow marrow is primarily fat.

Sharpey's fibers are collagen fibers that extend into a bone at an angle.

The matrix of bone is mineralized. Within the matrix are collagen fibers and proteoglycans. Elastic fibers and reticular fibers are types of fibers seen in connective tissue. However, collagen fibers are the fibers found in bone. Although bone is classified as connective tissue, it is not classified nor is it composed of dense irregular connective tissue. Dense irregular tissue is seen in the dermis. Bone is not classified nor is it composed of dense regular connective tissue. Dense regular connective tissue is seen in tendons and ligaments

Intramembranous bone formation is the process of bone formation where the bone is formed without a cartilage template. Endochondral bone formation is the process of bone formation where the bone is formed using a cartilage template.

Canaliculi are the little tunnels within the bone. Sharpey's fibers are collagen fibers that extend into a bone at an angle. Trabeculae are the spicules seen with spongy bone. Tome's process is seen in teeth, this process is responsible for enamel production. An osteocyte rests in a space called a lacuna.

The space of Disse is in the liver. The space of Disse is also called the perisinusoidal space. It is the space between the liver sinusoids and the hepatocytes.

The space of Mall is also in the liver. The space of Mall is located at the portal canal and is the region between the connective tissue and the liver parenchymal cells. It is the site where lymph is formed within the liver.

A vacuole is a small clear space within an individual cell.

A lacuna is a small space or depression. The space that the chondrocyte rests in is a lacuna.

Howship's lacuna is seen in bone. Howship's lacuna is a space seen underneath an osteoclast.

Calcium is in a mineral structure in bone and tooth enamel called hydroxyapatite. The chemical formula is [Ca10 (PO4)6(OH)2] Calcite crystals are calcium carbonate. The main component of limestone is calcite and seashells are made of calcite. However, calcite crystals are not found in man. Tourmaline is a crystal found in nature. Pink-red tourmaline is called rubellite. Blue tourmaline is known as indicolite. Tourmaline crystals are not found in men, although sometimes they are found on the necks and fingers of women in the form of jewelry.

The mature cell in cartilage is a chondrocyte. It rests in lacunae surrounded by matrix. A chondroblast is an immature cartilage cell which produces the cartilaginous matrix. An osteocyte is a mature bone cell. An osteoclast is a bone cell that is involved in the resorption of bone. A bone lining cell is a resting osteoblast
