Describe the structure of bone and cartilage.
⠀
- Bone is a solid, hard porous tissue.
- It is produced by osteocyte cells.
- It forms the natural skeleton and gives the body its basic structure and also supports the body.
- Its matrix is impregnated with phosphates and carbonates of calcium and magnesium which proves hardness to it.
- The matrix also contains ossein protein.
- The matrix is arranged in concentric rings which are called lamellae.
- Bone cells lie between the lamellae in fluid-filled spaces called lacunae.
- Bone cells are also called osteocytes.
- The bone is surrounded by a connective tissue called periosteum by which muscles and tendons are attached to the bone.
- A long bone has a hollow cavity filled with bone marrow which is richly supplied with blood vessels.
- Cartilage has widely spaced cells.
- It is a solid but semi-rigid connective tissue.
- The solid matrix is composed of proteins and sugars.
- The cartilage cells are large and angular and they are called chondriocytes.
- They occur in clusters of 2 or 3 cells in the small spaces called lacunae scattered in the matrix.
- A sheath called perichondrium binds the cartilage.
