The structure of a bone includes both compact and cancellous bone. Which of the following best describes their arrangement?

• Compact bone forms the dense outer layer, while cancellous bone is found inside as a spongy network.

• Cancellous bone forms the dense outer layer, while compact bone is found inside as a spongy network.

• Both compact and cancellous bone are only found on the bone surface.

• Compact bone and cancellous bone are randomly distributed throughout the bone.

The axial skeleton consists of which of the following?

• Skull, vertebral column, and rib cage

• Arms and legs

• Pelvic girdle and shoulder girdle

• Hands and feet

The Appendicular Skeleton consists of which of the following?

• The bones of the limbs and girdles

• The bones of the skull and vertebral column

• Only the bones of the lower limbs

• Only the bones of the upper limbs

Describe the five types of bone including an example. Fill in the table below:

• Long: Description: Longer than they are wide, mostly compact bone. Example: Femur. Short: Description: Cube-shaped, mostly spongy bone. Example: Carpals. Flat: Description: Thin, flattened, usually curved. Example: Sternum. Irregular: Description: Complicated shapes. Example: Vertebrae. Sesamoid: Description: Small, round, and embedded within tendons. Example: Patella.

The function of the skeleton is to:

• Support and protect the body

• Digest food

• Pump blood

• Transmit nerve impulses

The function of the skeleton in blood cell production is known as:

• Hematopoiesis

• Ossification

• Respiration

• Digestion
