Answer:
Cancellous bone tissue. Bone marrow and blood vessels.Question 2: List the 6 major types of synovial joints in order of decreasing range of motion.Assume the pivot joints offer slightly more motion than hinge joints.
Answer:
Ball-and-socket, saddle, ellipsoid, pivot, hinge, plane.
Question 3: Which gland secretes calcitonin?
Answer:
Thyroid.
Question 4: A bone-forming cell
Answer:
Osteoblast
Question 5: The following are processes that occur when bone is repaired. Order then according to the sequence in which they occur.
Answer:
The external callus is removed by the osteoclasts, and cancellous bone is remodeled as needed.
4.A hematoma forms.
1.The callus is ossified.
3.The callus forms. 2.Question 6: A person's medical tests show a large increase in the calcitonin levels of the body.What does that tell you about the calcium level in that person's blood?
Answer:
It was very high.
Question 7: What effect do the sex hormones have on bone growth?
Answer:
They stimulate it. They also stimulate ossification of the epiphyseal plates causing long bone growth to stop.
Question 8: What is the purpose of articular cartilage in a synovial joint?
Answer:
To protect the bones.
Question 9: A mass of connective tissue that connects the ends of a broken bone
Answer:
Callus
Question 10: What is the effect of calcitonin on bone cells?
Answer:
Decrease the activity of the osteoclasts, less calcium in blood.
Question 11: A mass of blood that is confined to a limited space
Answer:
Hematoma
Question 12: If a long bone has no epiphyseal plates because they have become epiphyseal lines, is there any way that a bone can grow?
Answer:
Yes. It can only grow in width.
Question 13: Which gland secretes PTH?
Answer:
Parathyroid.Question 14: What is the term for the layers of bone tissue that form an osteon? What is the terms for the layers of bone between osteons?
Answer:
Concentric lamellae. Interstitial lamellae.Question 15: Which gland secretes growth hormone, and what affect does this hormone have on bone tissue?
Answer:
Pituitary gland.Question 16: Looking at bone tissue under a microscope, you see no osteons. Is this compact or cancellous bone tissue?
Answer:
Cancellous.Question 17: What are the 3 major types of joints in the body, and which type is associated with most of the movement in the skeleton?
Answer:
Fibrous, cartilaginous, and synovial. Synovial.Question 18: There are at least 6 reasons why bone must be continually remodeled. Can you list at least 5 of them?
Answer:
Bone growth, to bear weight more easily, reshaping, healing breaks, convert cancellous bone to compact bone, increase/decrease mass based on stress, replace worn collagen or hydroxyapatite, regulate calcium levels in blood
Question 19: What are canaliculi?
Answer:
A channel in the bone that the osteocytes' processes go through.Question 20: Bone growth occurs when new cartilage is added to the bone's epiphyseal plate.Why doesn't the epiphyseal plate get thicker as the bone grows?
Answer:
New cartilage is being formed at the same rate that the cartilage at the other side is being ossified.Question 21: What is the purpose of the external callus? What is the purpose of the internal callus?
Answer:
To stabilize the bone as it reforms. To eventually become new bone tissue.
Question 22: What produces synovial fluid?
Answer:
The synovial membrane.Question 23: The position acquired when one stands erect with the feet facing forward, the upper limbs hanging at the sides, and the palms facing forward with thumbs to the outside
Answer:
Anatomical position
Question 24: A mature bone cell surrounded by bone matrix
Answer:
Osteocyte
Question 25: What is appositional bone growth?
Answer:
Bone growth in diameter rather than length.Question 26: A bone is completely surrounded by bone matrix. What kind of bone cell is it?
Answer:
Osteocyte.
