7.3 Bone Development and Growth

Bones that originate within sheetlike layers of connective tissue.

• partial bones
• chondritic bones
• intramembranous bones
• endochondral bones

Bones that begin as masses of cartilage later replaced by bone tissue.

• intramembranous bones
• entraspecific bones
• ethmodial bones
• endochondral bones

Bone forming cells are called...

• osteoblasts
• osteocytes
• osteoclasts
• osteons

Most bones of the skeleton are formed by...

• endochondral ossification
• gender specific ossification
• intramembranous ossification
• hyaline ossification

The process of replacing connective tissue to form an intramembranous bone.

• endochondrial ossification
• gender specific ossification
• intramembranous ossification
• hyaline ossification

In long bones, bone tissue begins to replace hyaline cartilage in the center of the diaphysis or the...

• secondary ossification center
• primary ossification center
• medullary ossification center
• transverse ossification center

The band of cartilage in the epiphysis where secondary ossification occurs.

• zone of ossification 
• ephiphyseal plate
• hyaline plate
• Z line

Multinucleated cells that break down the calcified matrix of bone.

• osteoblasts
• osteoclasts
• osteons
• osteocytes

Abnormal swings in blood sugar are less likely in individuals who exercise regularly in part due to the appearance of osteocalcin hormone.
