A function of the skeletal system

Skeletal tissue stores _________, which

is one of the most important minerals and electrolytes of the body.

Bones house the

bone marrow that makes red blood cells, white blood

cells, and platelets.

The formation of blood:

This bone tissue is very strong and remodels by getting

thicker where more stressed is placed on the area.

This type of bone has strut like bars or bridges

These are the bridges or struts in bone that branch and form

networks of bone that are very strong, but do not add weight to the overall structure.

Hemopoiesis occurs in the ______bone marrow.

Covers the ends of long bones in order to prevent wear-n-tear and is called articulating cartilage

The ends of a long bone

The ‘shaft’ or middle of a long bone

These arteries penetrate the bone through

a hole in the compact bone and branch to feed the

osteons.

This structure covers the outside of a long bone

Thin layer of cells lining the medullary cavities and the trabeculae of spongy bone inside the bone

Hollow space within the diaphysis, which contains the yellow marrow

Where bone increases in length in a long bone

These 80 bones protect vital organs

Forms the central axis of the body & protects critical organs

Skull,vertebral column, ribs, hyoid bone all make up the:

Makes up 126 bones of the human body

Function of the ______skeleton is movement.

Pectoral girdles, arms,hands and wrists, pelvis,legs and feet all make up the ___________skeleton.

Bones are classified by their _____.

These bones make up most of the arms and legs

Main function of these cubed shaped bones is:

These bones are plates of bone that form protective barriers

around vital organs

These bones don't have a specific shape and make up the bones of the face,vertebrae, and hips

Small round bone that is embedded within a tendon, whose purpose is to reinforce and decrease stress on that tendon.

Bulges, depressions, and holes serve as sites of attachment for muscles, ligaments, and tendons

Which bones are limited in rotation and are a good example of a pivot joint?

The joint which allows the maximum movement is the

Which type of joint makes up most joints in the body?

A hinge joint allows

The joints that allow the most movement are called

An example of a Saddle joint is in the

The jaw or mandible is a _____joint.

The hands, wrist, and feet are all ______joints.

The more stable a joint, the____________ it will have.

The less stable a joint, the_____________ it will have!

ENDOCHONDRAL OSSIFICATION - The process starts from a mass of _________

During endochondral ossification

Bones can form in two ways, either

The process of bone formation is called

Growth in the length of bone occurs

The prime function of OSTEOCLASTS is to

What type of fracture penetrates through the skin?

_________ fractures breaks at an angle in the bone.

If a fracture is comminuted, that means the bone is in _______ pieces.

_________ fractures are diagonal breaks in the bone.

what type of fracture is this

The diagram shows a fracture that has two bones crushing into each other. What type of fracture is this?

A fracture in which the bone is excessively twisted; common in sports

Incomplete break in a bone that has not completely ossified.

Ligament or tendon pulls and the force takes part of the bone with it.

First step of fracture healing is the formation of ___________.

What occurs in the third step of fracture healing?

In the fourth step of fracture healing this will occur

What occurs in the second step of fracture healing?

__________fracture occurs due to a weakness in the bone from disease.
