Explanation / Answer

43. SLIDE B-1.

A= bone marrow, B= central canal, C= lamellae, D= lacuna, E= canaliculi

A central tube or central canal called a Haversian canal, contains blood vessels and nerves.  Lamellae are concentric rings of a strong matrix.

Each lacuna is occupied by a branched cell, termed an osteocyte or bone-cell or bone-corpuscle. It appears as fusiform opaque spot in an ordinary microscopic section. Lacunae are connected to one another by small canals called canaliculi. The canaliculi provide routes by which nutrients can reach the osteocytes and waste products can leave them.

44. In SLIDE B osseous tissue and compact bone can be seen clearly. Spongy bone, red marrow, are not shown diffentiately.

Ans: e) a and b are correct.

Bone tissue (osseous tissue) is a hard or dense connective tissue.  

Cancellous bone is the meshwork of spongy tissue (trabeculae) of mature adult bone. It is typically found at the core of vertebral bones in the spine and the ends of the long bones such as the femur or thigh bone. But compact bone also called dense bone is a solidified structure filled with organic ground substance and inorganic salts, leaving only tiny spaces (lacunae) that contain the osteocytes.

SLIDE B-3

Ans: b) K= superior articular facet; L=pedicle; M= vertebral arch; Y= vertebral foramen.

It is the section of a vertebra.
