Q

what is a long bone?

A

these bones (found in arms, legs, toes, and fingers) are strong shafts made of compact bone tissue. Their ends are large and consist of spongy tissue covered with compact tissue. They are slightly curved, enabling them to absorb shock.

Q

what are short bones?

A

shaped like irregular cubes, the short bones are spongy with a covering of compact tissue. The kneecap and the bones of the wrist are short bones.

Q

what are flat bone?

A

The skull, ribs, sternum, hips, and scapula are flat bones- bones with broad flat plates of spongy tissue sandwiched between two layers of compact tissue. Flat bones protect organs protect organs and are anchor points for muscles

Q

what are irregular bones?

A

These bones are irregularly shaped. The proportion of spongy to compact bone varies from bone to bone. The vertebrae and facial bones belong to this group. these bones help to support and protect the body.
