Endochondral ossification(long)- Intramembranous ossification(skull)
A young patient(13yr) has been brough to the hospital with a broken arm. The X-ray shows that he has broken the humerus superiorly to the metaphysis. What did he break and what will happen to the bone?
He broke his epiphyseal plate and the bone will no longer grow.
What type of of growth would you expect to see with an increase in diameter?
Appositional growth
What specific part of the bone hurts to break? Why?
It is the Periosteum, because it contains the lymphatic vessels and the sensory nerves.
What is the name of the canal running perpendicular to the central canal. (Must give both names of it to recieve full credit)

Acromegaly, face, mandible, hands
To increase Ca2+ levels, what will be released and how will it increase Ca2+ levels concerning the bone?
Parathyroid Hormone(PTH). By stimulating Osteoclasts, it breaks down bone and releases the Ca2+.
This type of fracture results from one side of the shaft being broken
Greenstick Fracture

Estrogen, Osteopenia
