Periosteum:A dense layer of vascular connective tissue enveloping the bones except at the surfaces of the joints.
Cartilage: firm, whitish, flexible connective tissue found in various forms in the larynx and respiratory tract, in structures such as the external ear, and in the articulating surfaces of joints. It is more widespread in the infant skeleton, being replaced by bone during growth.
Joint:a point at which parts of an artificial structure are joined.
Ligament:a short band of tough, flexible, fibrous connective tissue that connects two bones or cartilages or holds together a joint.
add Movable Joints: A joint in which the opposing bony surfaces are covered with a layer of hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage and in which some degree of free movement is possible.
Immovable Joint:A union of two bones by fibrous tissue, such as a syndesmosis or gomphosis, in which there is no joint cavity and little motion is possible.
Synovial Fluid:a lubricating fluid resembling the white of an egg, secreted by certain membranes, as those of the joints.
Compact Bone:The compact noncancellous portion of bone that consists largely of concentric lamellar osteons and interstitial lamellae.
Spongy Bone:Bone in which the spicules form a latticework, with interstices filled with embryonic connective tissue or bone marrow.
Osteoclasts:a large multinucleate bone cell that absorbs bone tissue during growth and healing.
Osteoblasts:a cell that secretes the matrix for bone formation
