3) Hypertrophy
4) Zone of calcification
5) Zone of ossification
Zone of resting cartilage
ordinary, non dividing cells of hyaline cartilage
Zone of proliferation
chondrocytes are divinding and stacked in rows, cells are still small
Hypertrophy
chondrocytes and lucuna become enlarged
Zone of calcification
small zone and is slightly darker than preceding hytrophy zone; calcium salts increase, chondrocytes die and lucunae open
Zone of ossification
(zone of cartilage removal and bone deposition) bone is laid down upon calcified cartilage.
3 phases of repair of fractured bone
1) inflammation
2) repair
3) remodeling
Inflammation phase of bone repair
damage occurs to osteocytes and periosteum - macrphage enter to get rid of waste and dead tissue
Repair phase of bone repair
hard callus that is made of bone and soft callus made of cartilage is used for stabilization -
Remodeling phase of bone repair
soft callus is replaced by bone, osteoclasts and osteoblasts smooth out hard callus
