What carries blood vessels and nerves through bone?
The outer surface of the bone is covered with a fibrous membrane called the periosteum (peri– = “around” or “surrounding”). The periosteum contains blood vessels, nerves, and lymphatic vessels that nourish compact bone.
Which layer of the bone contains blood vessels and nerves?
The outer layer of the periosteum is mostly made of elastic fibrous material, such as collagen. It also contains blood vessels and nerves. The blood vessels of the periosteum contribute to the blood supply of the body’s bones. They can pass into the dense and compact layer of bone tissue below, called the bone cortex.
What is the name of the hole in the bone for arteries veins and nerves to pass through?
In anatomy and osteology, a foramen (/fəˈreɪmən/; plural foramina, /fəˈræmɪnə/ or foramens /fəˈreɪmənz/) is an open hole that is present in extant or extinct amniotes. Foramina inside the body of animals typically allow muscles, nerves, arteries, veins, or other structures to connect one part of the body with another.
Where blood vessels and nerves enter and leave the bone?

3) An opening or passage in bones where blood vessels and nerves enter and leave is a | foramen |
4) The projection of the temporal bone is the | mastoid process |
5) Knuckle-like process at the end of a bone is called a | condyle |
What is the zone of proliferating cartilage?
Zone of reserve (“resting”) cartilage (unmodified hyaline). 2. Zone of proliferating cartilage . . . clusters (cell nests) of chondrocytes undergo successive mitotic divisions to form columns of cells separated by deeply staining matrix.
What is the zone of hypertrophic cartilage?
Zone of hypertrophy: Chrondrocytes and their lacunae increase in size. Zone of calcification: Deposition of minerals in the matrix surrounding the enlarged lacunae causing cell death. Zone of ossification: Osteoblasts deposit bone matrix on the exposed plates of calcified cartilage.
What is it called when blood calcium falls the type of bone cells?
Osteoclasts are active in breaking down bone for bone remodeling, providing access to calcium stored in tissues in order to release it into the blood. Osteoclasts are usually found on the surface of the tissue. Bone can be divided into two types: compact and spongy.
What does it mean when chondrocytes are proliferating?
The skeletal elements of the axial and appendicular skeleton are preformed as cartilage templates by a mechanism called endochondral ossification. During this process, a cartilage template is formed in which chondrocytes proliferate and differentiate into hypertrophic chondrocytes and are gradually replaced by bone.
What is the function of chondrocyte cells?
Chondrocytes are the cells responsible for cartilage formation, and they are crucial for the process of endochondral ossification, which is useful for bone development. Also, by mimicking skeletal development chondrocytes play a critical role in fracture repair.
What are chondrocytes and osteocytes?
Chondrocytes vs Osteocytes Osteocytes are a type of bone cells present in mature bone tissues. Chondrocytes are a type of cells present in healthy cartilage. Function. Osteocytes are involved in the maintenance of bone tissue.
Where are chondrocytes and osteocytes found?
Chondrocytes are located in the cartilage of the body and osteocytes are located in the bone.
