Question
Answer
Name the living tissue in bone.   show
🗑
Explain how bones are classified.   show
🗑
show Epiphysis, diaphysis, compact bone, spongy bone, and medullary cavity  
🗑
show Compact bone is tightly packed with no gaps found in the diaphysis of long bones; spongy bone is found in the epiphysis of long bone and consists of numerous branching bony plates called trabeculae. Spaces between the trabeculae help reduce bone's weight.  
🗑
show Long longitudinal axes and expanded ends  
🗑
show Forearm and thigh bones  
🗑
show Somewhat cubelike, with roughly equal lengths and widths.  
🗑
What are some examples of short bones?   show
🗑
Name a special type of short bone that is usually small and nodular and develops within a tendon or adjacent to a joint.   show
🗑
show Platelike structures with broad surfaces.  
🗑
show The ribs, the scapulae, and some bones of the skull  
🗑
show Bones with a variety of shapes and most are connected to several other bones.  
🗑
What are some examples of irregular bones?   show
🗑
What are joints?   show
🗑
How many different types of joints are there?   show
🗑
show Fibrous, cartilaginous, and synovial joints.  
🗑
What are fibrous joints?   show
🗑
show In the leg between the distal ends of the tibia and fibula; have limited movement (amphiarthrotic)  
🗑
show Bones of these joints are connected by hyaline cartilage or fibrocartilage.  
🗑
show Separating the vertebrae of the vertebral column, pubic symphsis and the first rib of the sternum.  
🗑
What are synovial joints?   show
🗑
How many different synovial joints are there?   show
🗑
show Ball-and-socket joint, condylar joint, gliding joint, hinge joint, pivot joint, and saddle joint.  
🗑
show Globular shaped head that articulates with the cup-shaped cavity of another bone. Ex: shoulder and hip joints.  
🗑
show The rounded end of one bone fits into the cuff cavity of another bone. Ex: joints between the metacarpals and phalanges, radius and carpals.  
🗑
show Nearly flat or slightly curved that allows SLIDING or GLIDING motion. Ex: wrists and ankles, acromioclavicular, and between two vertebrae.  
🗑
What are hinge joints?   show
🗑
show Cylindrical surface of one bone ROTATES within a ring formed of bone and ligament. Ex: proximal and distal radioulnar joints and joints in the neck. (joint between the atlas and dens of the axis)  
🗑
What are saddle joints?   show
🗑
