Q

What are the different types of bones humans have?

Study These Flashcards
A

Long
Short
Flat
Irregular
Sesamoid

23
Q

What is the function of long bones?

Study These Flashcards
A

These bones are longer than they are wide

Main function is movement as they provide long lovers

24
Q

What are short bones

Study These Flashcards
A

They offer excellent stability and dexterity 

The length and width of short bones is no real difference

25
What are flat bones?
Due to their large surface, their excellent from muscle attachment
26
What is an irregular bone and an example
Don’t have any common distinctive features so they don’t fit any other category. An example would be the vertebrae
27
What is the sesamoid?
Seed like bones which offer stability and friction free movement at a joint with a wide range of motion example is the patella
28
What are osteoblasts?
Bone building cells
29
What are osteoclasts?
Clear away dead bone cells
30
What are osteocytes?
Cells that have matured into bone cells
31
What is ossification?
The process of building bone
32
What are the vital components of bone growth?
Calcium minerals, and salts
33
What factors affect bone growth?
Nutritional quality-eating nutrient, dense foods, high in calcium build, strong bones and teeth Hormonal factors exposure to sunlight - vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium exercise - physical activity or influence bone strength
34
What is Kyphosis
Forward homesickness harassing
35
What is lordosis?
Exaggerate arch of the Lumbar
36
What is scoliosis?
Twist or sideways, S-bend
37
What are ligaments?
Ligaments are tissue which connects bone to bone and are formed, mainly of collagen and elastin Largely nonelastic main functions to provide stability to joints
38
What makes ligament injuries, recovery slow
Due to their dense structures and lack of blood flow
39
What are tendons?
Densely packed, fibrous tissues The main role is to transfer the forces produced by the muscles to the bones they’re pulling against which produces movement When overloaded tendons can be damaged
40
What is cartilage?
Is known function is to surround the end of bones to assist in friction free movements
41
What are the three types of cartilage?
Fibrous Elastic Hyaline
42
What is fibrous cartilage?
Thicker and stronger than other cartilage Provide some element of shock absorption in the joint Found an inter-vertebral discs
43
What is hyaline
Most common type found in the body with diverse range of uses Very dense tissue with potentially low blood flow Reduces friction during movement Featured, primarily In synovial and cartilagineus joints
44
What is elastic cartilage?
Network of fibres, which contain elastin to offer the ability to return the shape Examples include the ear and larynx
45
What is the origin versus insertion bone?
Origin is the stationary bone that doesn’t move Insertion is the bone that moves
46
What is the movement of the bicep that and what are the two different muscles And insertion/origin bone
Flex the elbow Inseration radious Origin scapula (Long+ short head)
