Q

bone crushed; porous bones

A

compression

24
Q

broken bone portion is pressed inward ; typical skull fracture

25
broken bone ends are forced into each other ; attempting to break a fall without outstreched arms
impacted
26
excessive twisting ; common sports fracture
Spiral
27
bone breaks completely; common in children where bones are flexible than those of adults
Greenstick
28
4 major events of (repair of bone fractures)
Hematoma forms Fibrocartilage forms Bony forms Bone remodelling occurs
29
How many bones are there in a cranium
8 large flat bones
30
Axial bones:
skull vertebrae column thoracic cage
31
forms bony projections under eyebrows
Frontal bone
32
largest vein in the head
jugular vein
33
supplies blood most to the brain
internal carotid artery
34
lighten the skull bones & amplify the sounds we make as we speak
paranasal sinuses
35
only bone in the body that does not form a joint
Hyoid bone
36
cushions vertebrae & absorb shock while allowing spine flexibility
intervertebral disc
37
wraps tendon subjected to friction
tendon sheat
38
contains osteocytes
lacunae
39
rings central canal ; SITES OF LACUNAE
lamellae
40
forms transportation system ; connecrs bone cells to nutrient supply and waste removal services
canaculi
41
allow for growth of long bone during childhood
Epiphyseal plates
42
Bone fractures are treated by:
reduction and immobilization
43
 Forms a cage to protect major
The Bony Thorax
44
The Appendicular Skeleton have how many bones
126
45
shoulder girdle attaches to the
axial skeleton
46
the pelvic girdle is composed of how many bones
3 bones ilium ischium pubic bone
47
The heaviest and strongest bone in the body
femur
48
immovable joints: slightly moveable: freely moveable joints:
Synarthroses AMPHIARTHROSES DIARTHROSES
49
Structural Classification of Joints:
Fibrous joints Cartilaginous joints Synovial joints
50
Bones connected by cartilage  Examples
Pubic symphysis - pelvis  Intervertebral joints – spinal column
51
inflammation of a bursa usually caused by a blow or friction to the knee
Bursitis
52
inflammation of tendon sheaths - sprain
Tendonitis
53
inflammatory or degenerative diseases of joints
Arthritis
54
wear-and-tear arthritis  Most common chronic arthritis  Probably related to normal aging processes
osteoarthritis
55
 An autoimmune disease – the immune system attacks the joints  Symptoms begin with bilateral inflammation of certain joints  Often leads to deformities
Rheumatoid arthritis
