RED MARROW
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system
Ans: bone marrow found at the end of the long bones, also
manufactures red and white blood cells
OSTEOCYTES
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system
Ans: They are bone cells that produce a hard, calcium rich
extracellular matrix, and are embedded in a matrix of collagen
and minerals and form the skeleton of an organism

Ans: the hard structure (bones and cartilages) that provides a
framework for the body, as well as attachment sites for muscle.
Over 200 bones.
AXIAL SKELETON
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system
Ans: pertaining to the central part of the body, the head and
trunk
APPENDICULAR SYSTEM
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system
Ans: composed of 126 bones in the human body. The word
appendicular is the adjective of the noun appendage, wh ich
itself means a part that is joined to something larger.
Functionally it is involved in locomotion (Lower limbs) of the
axial skeleton and manipulation of objects in the environment
(Upper limbs).

Ans: is the location at which two or more bones make contact.
They are constructed to allow movement and provide
mechanical support, and are classified structurally and
functionally.
ligaments
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system
Ans: fibrous tissue that connects bone to bone, to provide
stability to joints
tendon
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system
Ans: the strong connective tissue cords that attach skeletal
muscles to bones
cartilage
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system
Ans: strong connective tissue that supports the body and is
softer and more flexible than bone
osteoarthritis

support and movement: the musculoskeletal system
Ans: Inflammation of the bone and joint
rheumatoid arthritis
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system
Ans: A chronic systemic disease characterized by inflammation
of the joints, stiffness, pain, and swelling that results in
crippling deformities
osteoporosis
