7 Bone Structure Labeling Review 1

The document summarizes the gross anatomy of a long bone. It identifies the main parts as the diaphysis, which makes up the shaft, and the two epiphyses at either end. It notes other features like the medullary cavity, compact and spongy bone, yellow and red marrow, periosteum and articular cartilage. Key cell types are identified as osteocytes within lacunae. The questions that follow test understanding of these various bone structures and tissues.

Pen and Paper


Action
» Thin layer of compact bone
surrounding an area filled with
spongy bone at the end of the long
bones.

Question #1
»Epiphysis
» Harder exterior osseous tissue tightly
joined together that provides a strong
surface of bone.

Question #2
» Compact Bone!
• Shaft of the bone. Makes up most
of the bone’s length. Composed of
compact bone.

Question #3
» Diaphysis
• Covers the epiphyses of the
long bones and decreases
friction of bones at joint
surfaces

Question #4
» Articular Cartilage
• Softer osseous tissue that is
porous and made of tiny littler
pieces of bone.

Question #5
» Spongy bone
» Cavity of the bone shaft In
children used for blood cell
formation, in adults it is used
for storage of fat.

Question #6
» Medullary Cavity
» Used as the storage of fat

Question #7
»Yellow Marrow
» Found in the spongy bone of
long bones and is used in
hematopoiesis. Stored in the
spongy bone tissue of the
epiphyses of long bones.

Question #8
»Red Marrow
» Connective tissue that protects
and covers the diaphysis

Question #9
» Periosteum
» Hyaline cartilage found
within the bone that allows
for continued growth
throughout youth.

Question #10
» Epiphyseal Plates
» Bone cell

Question #11
» Osteocyte
» Blood Cell Formation

Question #12
» Hematopoiesis
» Contains the bone cell

Question #13
» Lacuna
» Connects the lacunae and
provides transport for
nutrients for the osteocytes

Question #14
» Canaliculi
» A bone unit

Question #15
» Osteon
