front 6 Compact bone | back 6 Dense and looks smooth and homogeneous |
front 7 Spongy bone | back 7 Composed of small needle like pieces of bone and lots of holes |
front 8 Long bone | back 8 Longer than they are wide and are mostly compact bone. All bones of the limbs except the patella and the wrist and ankle bones |
front 9 Flat bones | back 9 Thin, flattened and usually curved. Most bones of the skull, the ribs, and the sternum are flat bones |
front 10 Irregular bones | back 10 The vertebrate, which make up the spinal column, and the hip bones. |
front 11 What is the relationship between muscle function and bones? | back 11 Muscles use bones as levers to bring about body movement |
front 12 Diaphysis | back 12 Or shaft makes up most of the bone's length and is composed of compact bone |
front 13 Periosteum | back 13 The diaphysis is covered and protected by a fibrous connective tissue membrane |
front 14 Perforating | back 14 Hundreds of connective tissue fibers |
front 15 Epiphyses | back 15 Ends of long bone |
front 16 Articular cartilage | back 16 Covers the external surface of the epiphysis. Glassy hyaline cartilage, it provides a smooth, slippery surface that decreases friction at joint surfaces |
front 17 Epiphyseal line | back 17 In adult bone there is A thin line spanning the epiphysis that looks a bit different from the rest of the area. |
front 18 Epiphyseal plate | back 18 A flat plate of hyaline cartilage seen in young growing bone. Causes the lengthwise growth of a long bone |
front 19 Yellow marrow or medullary cavity | back 19 In adult cavity of the shaft is primarily a storage of adipose tissue. |
front 20 Red marrow | back 20 In infants this area forms blood cells |
front 21 Osteocytes | back 21 Mature bone cells |
front 22 Lacunae | back 22 Osteocytes are found within the matrix in tiny cavities |
front 23 Lamellae | back 23 The lacunae are arranged in concentric circles |
front 24 Central canal | back 24 Surrounds the lamellae |
front 25 Osteon | back 25 Complex consisting of central canal and matrix rings |
front 26 Canaliculi | back 26 Tiny canals. Radiate outward from the central canals to all lacunae |
front 27 What is the anatomical name for thru shaft of a long bone | back 27 Diaphsis |
front 28 What is the importance of canaliculi? | back 28 They carry nutrients to the bone cells |
front 29 Ossification | back 29 Bones form using hyaline cartilage structures as their models |
front 30 Osteoblast | back 30 Bone forming cells |
front 31 Osteoblasts | back 31 Bone-destroying cells in bones |
front 32 Bones don't start as bones. What do they begin as? | back 32 Membranes or cartilage |
front 33 Tuberosity | back 33 Large, rounded projection may be roughened |
front 34 Crest | back 34 Narrow ridge or bone; usually prominent |
front 35 Trochanter | back 35 Very large, blunt, irregularly shaped process ( the only examples are on the femur) |
front 36 Line | back 36 Narrow ridge of bones; less prominent than a crest |
front 37 Tubercle | back 37 Small, rounded projection or process |
front 38 Spine | back 38 Sharon, slender, often pointed projection |
front 39 Process | back 39 Any bony prominence |
front 40 Head | back 40 Bony expansion carried on a narrow neck |
front 41 Facet | back 41 Smooth, nearly flat articular surface |
front 42 Condyle | back 42 Rounded articular projection |
front 43 Ramus | back 43 Armlike bar of bone |
front 44 Groove | back 44 Furrow |
front 45 Fissure | back 45 Narrow, slitlike opening |
front 46 Foramen | back 46 Round or oval opening through a bone |
front 47 Notch | back 47 Indentation at the edge of a structure |
front 48 Meatus | back 48 Canal-like passageway |
front 49 Sinus | back 49 Cavity within a bone, filled with air and lined with mucous membrane |
front 50 Fossa | back 50 Shallow, baseline depression in a bone, often serving as an articular surface |
front 51 Skull | back 51 Formed by 2 sets of bone. Facial and cranium |
front 52 Cranium | back 52 Frontal bone, parietal bone, temporal bone,occipital bone, sphenoid bone and ethmoid bone |
front 53 Facial bones | back 53 Maxillae, palatine bones, zygomatic bones, lacrimal bones, nasal bones, vomer bone, inferior nasal conchae, and mandible |
front 54 Hyoid bone | back 54 Closely related to the mandible and temporal bones. It is unique in that it is the only bone that does not articulate directly with any other bone. Moveable base for the tongue |
front 55 Fontanels | back 55 Fibrous membranes connecting the cranial bones |
front 56 What are the 3 main parts of the axial skeleton? | back 56 Skull, vertebral column, and bony thorax |
front 57 Only joints in the skull that are freely moveable | back 57 These are the temporomandibular joints |
front 58 Which skull bone form the "keystone of the face" | back 58 Maxillae |
front 59 Which bone has the cribriform plate and the crista galli? | back 59 Ethmoid bone |
front 60 Which bones are connected by the coronal suture? By the sagittal suture? | back 60 Frontal joins with the parietals at the coronal suture. Parietals joins one another at the sagittal suture |
