<span>Toxicosis describes the detrimental effects of uptake of a toxin into the body. The terms acute and chronic basically concern the time scales over which this uptake of the toxin occurs. Acute exposure to a toxin occurs over short time scales, such as over hours or days. Very often, acute exposure is exposure to high doses, that can often cause dramatic health effects. Very often, acute effects to a toxin include death. In contrast, chronic exposure occurs over longer time scales, such as weeks, months or years. Much lower doses are required to result in chronic effects, and these effects are often sub-acute effects such as reduced growth or reproduction. </span>

Nerves that supply bone accompany ____________ through the nutrient foramen. they are responsible for the innervation of the bon
Cerrena [4.2K]
Nerve that supply bone accompany blood vessels through the nutrient foramen. They are responsible for the innervation of the bone as well as its outer covering, the periostem, the inner lining of the medullary cavity, the endosteum, and the medullary cavity. The nerves that innervates these structures are mainly sensory nerves that signal injuries to the skeleton.

Blood vessels enter the bones from the periosteum through the nutrient foramen (a small opening or hole in the bone), where the nutrient artery enters and where one nutrient veins exists in bone. The blood vessels supply nutrients and oxygen required by cells and remove the waste products from the cells of the bones.

Endosteum functions to cover and lines the bone, it is an incomplete layer of cells that covers all internal surfaces of the bone within the medullary cavity. It contains the Osteoprogenitor cells, osteoblasts and osteoclasts which are important cells of the bone.

Periosteum on the other hand is a fibrous, thick membrane covering the external surface of the bone, apart from the articular cartilage on the epiphysis. It is made of two layers: the outer fibrous layer of dense irregular connective tissues that protects the bone from external structures, anchors the blood vessels and nerves to the surface of the bone. It also  serves as an attachment site for ligaments and tendons. The inner cellular layer contains various cells which includes the osteoprogenitor, osteoclasts and osteoblasts.
