40
what are the types of cells in a bone?
osteoblasts, osteocytes and osteoclasts
41
what do osteoblasts do?
build bone cells, synthesize and secrete organic components of bone matrix, initiate classification, and found in periosteum and endosteum
42
what do osteocytes do?
mature bone cells, formed when osteoblasts get trapped in matrix, and maintains bone tissue
43
what do osteoclasts do?
bone resorption (digest/break down): part of normal bone growth, development, maintenance and repair, and is found in endosteum

what are the two arches of the foot?
normal longitudinal arch and transverse arch
73
what does the pelvic outlet hold?
digestive tract, the female reproductive tract passes through
74
what is the purpose of the pubic symphysis?
so a baby can pass through, the pubic symphysis softens to expand for baby's head
75
what is the difference between the male and female skeletal systems?
the male skeletons are larger and heavier
the female pelvic bones are shaped differently, its wider for women
76
what is open fracture?
(compound) broken bone breaks through the skin
77
what is closed fracture?
(simple) broken bone doesn't break through the skin
78
what is incomplete fracture?
a partial break through the bone
79
what is complete fracture?
bones breaks all the way through
80

(like slowly breaking a toothpick) bone is bent on one side, and other side is broken
81
what is denate fracture?
fragmented ends of bones are jagged
82

fracture line straight down the bone
83
what is transverse fracture?
fracture line straight horizontal across
84
what is oblique fracture?
fracture slanted or diagonal
85
what is lordosis?
the spinal curvature where your lower back is curved in
86
what is kyphosis?
the spinal curvature where your upper back is really curved out
87

what is osteoarthritis?
wear and tear deterioration, most common NIJD, atrophy of articular cartilage
97
what is a sprain?
the stretching of ligaments surrounding joint, due to twisting motion, treatment is RICE
