of articulating cartilage occurs in the large joints.
Which of the following describes a Colles' fracture? - Correct answer-The distal radius is
broken.
During the fracture healing process, the hematoma: - Correct answer-Is the structure

When a fracture is healing, the procallus or fibrocartilaginous callus: - Correct answer-
serves as a splint across the fracture site.
The inflammation surrounding a fracture site during the first few days may complicate
healing by causing: - Correct answer-severe ischemia and tissue necrosis.

answer-Acetylonie

sarcoma? - Correct answer-Steady, severe, and persisting with rest.
How is Duchenne's muscular dystrophy inherited? - Correct answer-X-linked recessive
gene.
