11. Compact bone - main unit of bone- osteon
- Haversian canal- no osteoblasts lining area because
bone has matured
- surrounded by lamellae

- small lines are caniculli- bring nutrients from Haversian
canal into each osteocyte, helping maintain the bone

12. Volksman canal - compact bone

and communicate with the Haversian canals
- provide energy and nourishment for osteons

13. intramembra- - bone develops from mesenchymal cells


nous ossification - mesenchymal cells differentiate into osteoblasts, creat-
ing primary bone
- osteoblasts become trapped to form osteocytes
- osteoclasts destroy bone and have multiple nuclei

14. Howship lacunae Depressions of resorbed bone that house osteoclasts

15. Endochondral - formation of long bone via ossification


ossification - resting zone: hyaline cartilage rests until they get signal
to proliferate
- zone of proliferation: chondrocytes stack in rows
- zone of hypertrophy- chondrocytes and lacunae increase
in size; macrophages invade region and destroy debris
- zone of calcification- osteoblasts deposit bone formation

16. Lympocyte - 25- 35%


- small, dense nuclei with little cytoplasm
- part of immune response
- B- lymphocytes- bone marrow, produce antibodies that
attack bacteria
- T- lymphocytes- thymus

destroy dead and defective cells, as well as bacteria
- major role in immune response

18. Neutrophils - most abundant


- respond to bacterial infections
- multi- lobed nucleus connected to each other by chro-
matin

19. Eosenophils - less than 4%


- function in parasitic infections
- bind to histamine
- bi- lobed nuclei with 2 lobs connected by chromatin and
a nuclear envelope

20. Basophils - less than 1%


- S shaped nucleus and specific granules
- several surface receptors in their plasmalemma (IgE
receptors)
- fight parasitic infections, prevent blood clotting, contain
heparin (mediate allergic reactions)

21. Platelets - dark blue spots


- aid in blood clotting, release collagen and other clotting
factors (refer to notes)

22. Smooth Muscle - Involuntary muscle found inside many internal organs of
the body
- non striated, uninucleated
- myocite with elongated nucleus

skeletal muscle - epimysium- covers entire muscle
fibres - endomysium- cover individual fibers

25. Cardiac muscle - uninucleated, involuntary


tissue - combo of smooth and striated
- individual myocite
