ANSWERS
levels of structural organization that make up the human body -
CORRECT ANSWERS- atom, molecule, bio molecule, organelle,
cells, tissues, organ, organ system, organisms
types of cartilage - CORRECT ANSWERS- hyaline, elastic,
fibrocartilage
types of bones - CORRECT ANSWERS- long, short, flat, irregular,
sesamoid
long bones - CORRECT ANSWERS- longer than they are wide
function as levers
found in arms legs fingers toes
short bones - CORRECT ANSWERS- cube shaped bones of the
wrist and ankle
,provides stability and limited motion
flat bones - CORRECT ANSWERS- These bones are thin, flat, and
curved. They form the ribs, breastbone, and skull.
points of attachment and protects organs
irregular bones - CORRECT ANSWERS- vertebrae and facial bones
protection
sesamoid bones - CORRECT ANSWERS- round bones found near
joints (e.g., the patella)
protect tendons
Diaphysis (long bone) - CORRECT ANSWERS- Center portion of
the thick compact bone (the shaft of the long bone)
medullary cavity - CORRECT ANSWERS- central, hollowed-out
area in the shaft of a long bone (diaphysis)
filled with yellow bone marrow
, Epiphyses (long bone) - CORRECT ANSWERS- ends of long bones
that consist of compact bone externally and spongy bone
internally and red bone marrow
Metaphysis (long bone) - CORRECT ANSWERS- where diaphysis
and epiphysis meet, growth plate region
epiphyseal plate - CORRECT ANSWERS- Growth plate, made of
cartilage, gradually ossifies and becomes epiphyseal line
periosteum - CORRECT ANSWERS- a dense layer of vascular
connective tissue enveloping the bones except at the surfaces of
the joints.
articular cartilage - CORRECT ANSWERS- covers the surfaces of
bones where they come together to form joints
intramembranous ossification - CORRECT ANSWERS- process by
which bone forms directly from mesenchymal tissue
endochondral ossification - CORRECT ANSWERS- process in which
bone forms by replacing hyaline cartilage
mesenchymal cells - CORRECT ANSWERS- Stem cells that
respond to injury or infection
Differentiate into fibroblasts, macrophages, etc.
