Papillary Layer
Dermis Dermal Papillae
Reticular Layer
Deeper than Papillary layer in Dermis Contains sweat glands, sebaceous glands, and hair follicles Dense Irregular CT

Hair
Continually replaced Sebaceous gland (holocrine gland) Arrector Pili Muscle - smooth muscle Protection, heat retention
Sebaceous Gland
Exocrine gland- Holocrine Secrete sebum (oil) Lubrication and waterproofing
Sweat Gland
Merocrine and Apocrine glands Excrete sodium and urea Perspire to cool off
Osteology
Study of bones
Bones
Organs Composed of Bone CT and Dense Irregular Blood vessels and nerves running through
Functions of Skeletal System
Framework for body Muscle attachment Protection Movement Mineral Storage Hemopoesis- produces RBCs in red bone marrow
Bone hemopoesis stuff
Child: red bone marrow in most spongy bone Adult: red bone marrow restricted to axial skeleton and proximal epiphysis of humerus and femur Adult: marrow in shafts of long bones turns to yellow bone marrow (flat)
Long Bone
Most common cylindrical bone shaft femur, phalanges, ulna, metacarpals, tibia, humerus, metatarsals, radius
Short Bones
carpals, tarsals, carpals, patella
Flat Bones
Relatively thin, broad surface thin layer of spongy bone in between compact bone Skull bones, sternum, rib
Irregular Bones
Irregular shapes and varied shapes sphenoid, os coxae, vertebra
Diaphysis
Cylindrical shaft of compact bone with medullary cavity
Medullary Cavity
Hollow inside of a diaphysis Lined with endosteum-dense regular CT in adults-contains yellow bone marrow
Epiphysis
Ends of a bone Outside layer of compact bone surrounding spongy bone Proximal and distal
Articular Cartilage
Hyaline Cartilage on the epiphyses Reduces friction and helps articulating bones move more easily
Osteoarthritis
'old age or repetitive use articular cartilage wears down-bones rub together=stiffness and pain cannot regenerate the cartilage
Epiphyseal Plate
Hyaline cartilage plate between diaphysis and epiphysis only in subadult bones lengthwise bone growth when done growing it becomes the ____ line
Epiphyseal Line
When plate is done growing, it become thin plate of compact bone called ____
Periosteum
Dense Irregular CT that covers outside of bone (Not on articular surfaces)
Perforating Fibers
Protein fibers that anchor periosteum to bone Very Vascular and lots of nerves Function= bone width growth
Osteoblasts
immature bone cells that create bone and secrete osteoid
Osteocytes
Mature bone cells that maintain bone matrix
Osteoclasts
Breakdown and reabsorb bone Formed from fused red bone marrow cells
Osteons
Make up compact bone Cylindrical structures that run parallel to bone
Central Canal
Opening that contains blood vessels and nerves Runs parallel to osteon
Concentric Lamellae
Rings of bone matrix
Osteocytes
Mature bone cells between lamellae
Lacunae
Spaces where osteocytes reside
Canaliculi
Tiny channels that radiate from lacunae- arm like extensions Provide exchange for nutrients/wastes/between canal and osteocytes
Perforating Canals
Canals that run perpendicular to central, connect central canals and osteons
Interstitial Lamellae
Incomplete remnants of osteons Osteoblasts ate away at them No central canal
Circumferential Lamellae
rings of bone that run the entire circumference of the shaft Created by the periosteum
