26 sty 2024 · Bones have an internal structure similar to a honeycomb, which makes them rigid yet relatively light. In this article, we explain their function, what they consist of, and the types of cells...
30 paź 2023 · Bones make up the skeletal system of the human body. The adult human has two hundred and six bones. There are several types of bones that are grouped together due to their general features, such as shape, placement and additional properties.
13 lip 2015 · Bone is a mineralized connective tissue that exhibits four types of cells: osteoblasts, bone lining cells, osteocytes, and osteoclasts [1, 2]. Bone exerts important functions in the body, such as locomotion, support and protection of soft tissues, calcium and phosphate storage, and harboring of bone marrow [3, 4]. Despite its inert appearance ...
21 maj 2024 · Gross Anatomy of Bone. The structure of a long bone allows for the best visualization of all of the parts of a bone (Figure 5.3.1 5.3. 1 ). A long bone has five zones: the diaphysis, two metaphyses, and two epiphyses. The diaphysis is the narrow, tubular shaft that runs between the two bulbous ends of the bone.
13 maj 2022 · Most bones contain compact and spongy osseous tissue, but their distribution and concentration vary based on the bone’s overall function. Compact bone is dense so that it can withstand compressive forces, while spongy (cancellous) bone has open spaces and supports shifts in weight distribution.
16 lip 2024 · Depending on how the protein fibrils and osteocytes of bone are arranged, bone is of two major types: woven, in which collagen bundles and the long axes of the osteocytes are randomly oriented, and lamellar, in which both the fibrils and osteocytes are aligned in clear layers.
