PERICHONDRIUM.
TWO PROCESSES BY WHICH CARTILAGE
GROWS:
1. Interstitial or ENDOGENOUS
1. Expansion of cartilage from within
2. Results from mitotic division of pre existing
chondrocytes
2. Appositional or EXOGENOUS
1. addition of new layers of cartilage to one surface
2. results from differentiation within the inner layer of
PERICHONDRIUM
Cartilage
A. Contains water, but no nerves, vascular & lymph
vessels
B. There are 3 basic types.
2. Elastic
a. external ear
b. epiglottis
3. Fibrocartilage
a. intervertebral discs
b. knee joints
HYALINE CARTILAGE
appears as a translucent, bluish-white mass in fresh
conditions
forms the articular surfaces to bone within joints, the
costal cartilages,and the cartilages of the nose, larynx,
trachea, and the bronchi
in the fetus, nearly all the skeleton is first laid down as
HYALINE cartilage, which is replaced later by bone.
ELASTIC CARTILAGE
fresh elastic cartilage has a yellowish color owing to the
presence of elastin in the elastic fibers
found in the external ear, the walls of the external auditory
canals, the eustachian tubes, the epiglottis, and the
cuneiform cartilage in the larynx.
Like hyaline cartilage possesses a perichondrium.

Bone cells
Cells of Osseous Tissue (1)
osteoblasts
osteons formed and spongy bone is created
Fetal Skeleton at 12 Weeks
Bone Growth and
Remodeling
Bones increase in length
interstitial growth of epiphyseal plate
epiphyseal line is left behind when cartilage gone
Bones increase in width = appositional growth
osteoblasts lay down matrix in layers on outer surface and
osteoclasts dissolve bone on inner surface
Bones remodeled throughout life
Wolff’s law of bone = architecture of bone determined by
mechanical stresses
action of osteoblasts and osteoclasts
greater density and mass of bone in athletes or manual worker
is an adaptation to stress
Dwarfism
Achondroplastic
long bones stop growing
in childhood
normal torso, short limbs
spontaneous mutation
during DNA replication
failure of cartilage growth
Pituitary
lack of growth hormone
normal proportions with
short stature
Other Factors Affecting
Bone
Hormones, vitamins and growth factors
Growth rapid at puberty
hormones stimulate osteogenic cells,
chondrocytes and matrix deposition in
growth plate
girls grow faster than boys and reach full
height earlier (estrogen stronger effect)
males grow for a longer time and taller
Growth stops (epiphyseal plate “closes”)
teenage use of anabolic steroids = premature
closure of growth plate and short adult
stature
