17
Q

these bones are longer than they are wide; it is the shape of the bone not the size that matters in this case

A

Long bone

18
Q

these bones are equally long and wide, thus a cube in shape

A

Short bone

19
Q

these bones are thin, broad, and commonly curved;

A

flat

20
Q

the word, in this case, implies a sesame seed shape; these are specialized bones found within tendons; they are described as small, flat, and oval shaped; their important role is to increase muscle leverage and increase the longevity of tendons

A

sesamoid

21
Q

this is a category describing all bones that do not easily fit into the previous four shape classifications

A

Irregular

22
Q

allow blood vessels and nerves to traverse along a bone and may also provide a location where two bones can articulate

cleft of varying depth in a bone; located where a bone meets another structure, such as another bone or a blood vessel.

A

depression

23
Q

are holes in the bone that allow blood vessels and nerves to pass through the bone

and still provide adequate protection to the softer underlying structures; they include: canal (or meatus), fissure, and foramen.

A

Openings

24
Q

are bony extensions that come in lots of shapes and sizes; they serve as attachment sites for muscles, tendons, and ligaments, and some stabilize joints by fitting into depressions of other bones; large in number, they include: condyle, crest, head, tubercle/tuberosity, epicondyle, process, spine, protuberance, and line.

A

Projections

25
Q

it contains a population of hematopoietic stem cells

A

Marrow cells

26
Q

main function is to build bone (blasts are builders)

A

osteoblasts

27
Q

are mature osteoblasts that maintain bone health

A

osteocytes

28
Q

the cells responsible for bone breakdown

A

osteoclasts

29
Q

Compact bones contains many small and tight packed units called

A

osteon

30
Q

each osteon contains a ___ ___ for nerves and blood vessels

A

central canal

31
Q

he central canals of neighboring osteons connect to each other via perpendicularly positioned canals

A

perforating canals

32
Q

connect adjacent lacunae containing osteocytes and their secretions.

A

canaliculi

33
Q

form and allow small molecules to pass directly from the cytosol of one cell’s extension directly into the other cell’s cytosol.

A

gap functions

34
Q
  • a loosely gathered meshwork of extensively branched bone tissue.

lack osteons and both central and perforating canals.

Each “beam” contains concentric lamellae, lacunae , and canaliculi that allow contact and communication between osteocytes

A

trabeculae

35
Q

is the most frequently encountered bone disease

stooped posture, increase susceptibility of fractures

A

osteoporosis

36
Q

movimiento en todos los planos rotacion y circular

A

bola y cuenca (esferoidal)

37
Q

movimiento en dos planos

A

condiloide o elipsoidal

38
Q

enter dos superficies planas movimientos en dos dirrecciones y torcion

A

artroidal o deslizamiento

39
Q

movimiento en un plano

A

Ginglimoidal o de bisagra

40
Q

rotacion de un hueso dentro de un anillo de hueso o ligamento

A

Trocoidal o de pivote

41
Q

movimiento en varies direcciones

A
