Answers| Latest Update 100% Solved
trabeculae random mesh-like structure of interconnecting plates in cancellous/trabecular
bone (spongy bone)
Periosteum membrane layer that covers the outside of the bone
Canaliculus channel that connects lacunae to one another
Diaphysis shaft of the long bone
Epiphyses ends of the long bone
metaphyses transitional areas between the diaphysis and epiphyses of the long bone
epiphyseal plate growth plate in the junction between the epiphysis and metaphysis
osteoblasts bone cell type that deposit and build new bone
osteoclasts bone cell type that breaks down and reabsorb bone
Hyaline Cartilage found at the ends of bones that move with respect to one another
Axial Skeleton protect and support organs of the head, neck and trunk; skull, hyoid bone,
vertabral colum, and thorax
, Appendicular Skeleton functions to anchor the limbs to the axial skeletong; upper limbs,
lower limbs, pectoral girdle, and pelvic girdle
Platelet minicells and also have organelles. Involved in blood clotting
Fibrous rigid articulations; cranium, teeth, radius & ulna, tibia & fibula
Cartilaginous joint that exhibit varying degrees of flexibility; successive vertebrae, ribs that
connect to the sternum
Synovial allow greatest degree of movement; contain a cavity with fluid that allow for
greater mobility
myocytes muscle cells
myofibrils muscles cells that contain contractile proteins, mainly myosin and actin that form
long strands in the muscle
sarcomeres myofibrils that align in one direction and have evenly spaced unites that result
in visible repeating structure
Epimysium allows muscle to contract and move powerfully while maintaining its structural
integrity; also spearates muscle from other tissues and organs; surrounded by fascia
perimysium long myocytes bound by a middle layer of connective tissue found in fasciles
