Green stick fracture - answer-break on one side of a bone, usually due to a bending
force
Buckle or Torus fracture - answer-when one side of the bone bends, raising a little
buckle, without breaking the other side.
avulsion fracture - answer-Tendon or ligament pulls bone away at site of attachment.
Growth plate fracture - answer-A fracture that involves the end of a long bone of a child
and that may be limited to growth plate cartilage or extend into the metaphysis,
epiphysis, or both.
stress fracture - answer-A tiny crack in a bone caused by repetitive stress or force, often
from overuse.
comminuted fracture - answer-bone breaks into more than two fragments
compression fracture - answer-Collapsing of the bone
Chemoreceptor Stimulation - answer-Increase in carbon dioxide and decrease in
oxygen
Chemoreceptors - answer-chemical sensors in the brain and blood vessels that identify
changing levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide
, Pinna (auricle) - answer-The external, visible part of the ear.
Outer ear.
Directs sound into ear.
tympanic membrane (eardrum) - answer-a membrane forming part of the organ of
hearing, which vibrates in response to sound waves.
Middle ear.
ear canal (auditory canal) - answer-the tube leading from the pinna to the tympanic
membrane
cochlea - answer-a coiled, bony, fluid-filled tube in the inner ear; sound waves traveling
through the cochlear fluid trigger nerve impulses
semicircular canals - answer-three fluid-filled canals in the inner ear responsible for our
sense of balance
Organ of Corti - answer-sensory organ of hearing (microphone)
Three major bones of the ear - answer-Incus, malleus, stapes (auditory ossicles)
eustachian tube (auditory tube) - answer-tube that connects the middle ear to the
nasopharynx
outer ear - answer-pinna and auditory canal
middle ear - answer-Tympanic membrane (eardrum).
Malleus, incus, stapes(ossicles).
Tympanic cavity
