Question	Answer
which bone tissue is adapted to support weight and withstand tension stress	compact bone
yellow bone marrow contains a large percentage of what	fat
the cell responsible for secreting the matrix of bone is	osteoblast
what kind of tissue is the forerunner of long bones in the embryo	hylaine cartilage
what can a deficiency of growth hormone during bone formation cause	decreased proliferation of the epihyseal plate cartilage
a fracture in the shaft of the bone would be a break in the	diaphysis
the term diploe means	internal layers of spongy bone in flat bones
a bone marking name that indicates a projection that helps form joints	ramus
factors in preventing or delaying osteoporosis include	drinking fluoridated water
ossification of the ends of long bones	is produced by secondary ossification centers
the structure that allows the diaphysis to increase in length until early childhood as well as shaping the articular sufaces	epiphyseal plate
the most abundant skeletal cartilage is	hyaline
what is the structural unit of compact bone	the osteon
the bones are covered by a protective layer called	periosteum
the inner layer of the bone consists of	osteoblasts and osteoclasts
the periosteum is secured to the underlying bone by dense connective tissue called	perforating fibers (sharpys)

what are the small spaces in bone tissue that are holes in which osteocytes live called	lacunae
the process of bones increasing in width is known as	appositional growth
which cells accomplish the process of resorption	osteoclast
which hormone increases osteoclast activity to release more calcium ions into the bloodstream	parathyroid hormone
wolff's law is concerned with	the thickness and shape of a bone dependent on stresses placed upon it
Cranial bones develop	within fibrous membranes
what gland produces hormones that tend to decrease blood calcium levels	thyroid
osteomyelitis is	due to pus forming bacteria
What is appositional growth	the secretion of new matrix aganist the external face of existing cartilage
in the epiphyseal plate cartilage grows	by pushing the epiphysis away from the diaphysis
spongy bones are made up of a framework called	trabeculae
osteogenesis is the process of	bone formation
lengthwise long bone growth during infancy and youth is exclusivly through	interstitial growth of the epiphyseal plates
what hormone is important for bone growth during infancy and childhood	growth hormone
elevated levels of sex hormones cause	the epiphseal plate of the long bones of children to close to early
normal bone formation and growth are dependent on the adequate intake of	calcium, phosphate, and vitamin D
ostealgia is	pain in the bone
