General overview: Bone Specialized connective tissue Components of bone: Cell:osteogenic cell,osteoblast,osteocytes,osteoclast Fibres:collagen type –I Ground substanse:chondroital sulphate,keratin sulfate and glycoprotein Minerals:calcium phosphate,hydroxy apatite crystal of calcium phosphate
Formation of bone: Mesodermal in origin Formed by process of ossification Endochondrial ossification(cartilagenous model) Intramembranous ossification(membranous model)
Law of ossification: secondary center which appears first unites last with diaphysis and secondary center which appears last unites first with diaphysis Exception: Fibula Primary center forms diaphysis whereas secondary center forms epiphysis
1.Endochondrial ossification: Begins at second month of embryonic development Hyaline cartilage is subsequently replaced by bone Leads to Growth in length and width of bone Bones formed are known as cartilage bones Formation of short and long bones.
Steps in endochondrial ossification: 1.cartilageneous model 2. Formation of areolae:
Stages of Endochondrial ossification: 3.Calcification of matrix: 4.Formation of areolae:
Endochondrial ossification:formation of bony lamellae
Structural unit of bone: Lamellae
Primary center of ossification:
Secondary center of ossification:
Growth of bone in length:
Increase in thickness of long bone:
Intramembranous ossification: Mesenchymal cells directly converts to osteoblasts with capillaries in center of ossification Mostly forms flat bones e.g: formation of mandible, maxilla, clavicle and most of flat bones of skull Begins at 8 th week of development

4.Stages of Intramembranous Ossification Figure 6.7.4
Hormonal regulation of bone formation: 1) Human growth hormone: Bone growth before puberty 2) Sex hormones(testosterone and estrogen) Development of typical male and female shaped skeleton after puberty. 3)Parathyroid hormones:release of calcitonin
