What type of bone is this? This type of bone protects delicate organs. They give big surface area for muscle attachments. Examples are scapula, cranium, pelvis and ribs.

What type of bone is this? This shape of bone do not fit any category of shape. These bones act as shock absorbers (especially on the back and the knee). Examples are vertebrae, hip bone, and bones in the base of the skull.

What type of bone is this? These are bones that embedded within a tendon. Their function is to aid the tendon in movement by holding it slightly away from joints. Example: knee, bones of feet and hands

What type of bone is this? These are bones that embedded within a tendon. Their function is to aid the tendon in movement by holding it slightly away from joints. Example: knee, bones of feet and hands

What type of bone is this? They are involved with large movements. They are "elongated" (greater length than width) and cylindrical with enlarged, knob like ends called epiphyses which are mostly spongy bone cover by a thin layer of compact bone. Examples: clavicle, humerus, radius, ulna, metacarpals, femur, tibia, fibula, metarsals

What type of bone is this? They are roughly cube shaped or cuboid - length, width, and height are all close to equal. The consist of a thin layer of compact, hard bone with cancellous bone on the inside alone with relatively large amounts of bone marrow. Examples: carpals and tarsals - the wrist and foot bones

What is #1? It is a unit of bone.

What is #2? They are concentric rings of bone surrounding a central (Haversian) canal.

What is #3? Fibers that connects periosteum to bone.

What is #4? Dense bone in which the bony matrix is solidly filled with organic ground substance and inorganic salts, leaving only tiny spaces (lacunae).

What is #5? A carrier of blood which brings or takes away nutrients.

What is #6? The dense fibrous connective tissue membrane covering the surface of bones except at the joints and serving as an attachment for muscles and tendons.

What is #7? A carrier of blood which brings or takes away nutrients.

What is #8? A canal perpendicular to the central canal. It carries blood vessels and nerves.

What is #9? An opening in the center of an osteon which carries blood vessels and nerves.

What is #10? Light, porous bone enclosing numerous large spaces that give a honeycombed or spongy appearance. It is softer and weaker bone but highly flexible and vascular.

What is #12? Makes up the majority of bone and is composed primarily of inorganic hydroxyapatite and organic collagen.

What is #13? An opening in the center of an osteon which carries blood vessels and nerves.

What is #14? Microscopic canals between the lacunae of ossified bone.

What is #15? Cavities within the bone that contain osteocytes.

What is #16? A mature bone cell.

What is #17? A concentric weight bearing ring made up of groups of hollow tubes of bone matrix. It surrounds a central canal.
