What bone lines the superficial regions of all bone spongy or compact?
The make-up of a bone is essentially a joint surface which is covered in a cartilage layer with a spongy tissue underneath the cartilage called the cancellous bone. The compact bone is then the superficial layer with a connective tissue lining the superficial regions called the periosteum.
What are the four regions of bone?
spongy layer, compact bone, cartilage, and bone marrow
What is the cartilage articulates with another bone or bone process called?
The cartilage that articulates with another bone or bone process is called articular cartilage. It covers the ends of bones within joints and helps to reduce friction and absorb shock during movement.
What is the covering of a bone to which ligaments and tendons are attached?
cartilage
The tissue conecting the bone to bone is called?
cartilage
What is the growing end of a bone called?
In the long bones of children it is called an epiphysial growth plate which is a layer of hyaline cartilage located in the metaphysis which is between the epiphysis (the end of the bone) and diaphysis (the middle of the bone/shaft of the bone).
What is the term for the process of cartilage turning into bone?
Endochondral Ossification meaning "formed in cartilage.
What are the cells that produce bone from cartilage are called?
The cells that produce bone from cartilage are called osteoblasts. These specialized cells are responsible for bone formation during the process of endochondral ossification, where cartilage is gradually replaced by bone tissue. Osteoblasts synthesize and secrete the bone matrix, which eventually mineralizes to form hard bone.
Cartilage is replaced by bone in a process called .?
ossification
How does the bone replace the cartilage in the body?
Bone does not usually replace cartilage in the body. Instead, cartilage can be converted into bone during a process called endochondral ossification, which is essential for bone growth and development. This process involves the gradual replacement of cartilage with bone tissue.
What is the tissue called on the flexible tip of the nose?
There IS a nose bone, in fact it's called the nasal bone at the top of the nose. It's a short bone that doesn't extend the length of the nose. At the end of the nasal bone is where the cartilage starts. You can find anatomical pictures on google for a visual.
Cartilage replacing bone cells are called?
Cartilage replacing bone cells are called chondrocytes. These cells are responsible for the formation and maintenance of cartilage tissue, which provides support and flexibility in various parts of the body. In certain conditions, such as during the growth of long bones, cartilage is gradually replaced by bone through a process called endochondral ossification.
