100
These are the types of cells that produce bone matrix.
What are osteoblasts?
100
In this type of bone, the collagen fibers have parallel orientation.
What is lamellar?
100
This type of ossification occurs in the connective tissue membranes of the skull.
What is intramembranous ossification?
100
The elbow and knee joint are both this type of joint (based on movement).
What are hinge joints?
100
The ACL, PCL, collateral, and popliteal are all these, which function to maintain the integrity of the joint and prevent dislocation.
What are ligaments?
200
This is the process of bone formation.
What is ossification or osteogenesis?
200
This is the anatomical name for the shaft of a long bone.
What is the diaphysis?
200
This type of ossification begins with the formation of cartilage models of bones produced by chondroblasts.
What is endochondral ossification?
200
Excursion is the lateral and medial movement of this bone.
What is the mandible?
200
This thin layer of tissue at the epiphysis of bone in synovial joints provide a smooth surface.
What is articular cartilage?
300
These are the cells that are responsible for the resorption of bone.
What are osteoclasts?
300
This membrane covers the outer surface of bone and is rich in blood vessels and nerves.
What is the periosteum?
300
Growth in bone length occurs at these structures located in the ends of long bones.
What are epiphyseal plates?
300
Fluid-filled joints are most properly called this.
What are synovial joints?
300
This fibrocartilage pad in the knee joint acts as a shock absorber.
What is the meniscus?
400
These are the two components of bone matrix.
What are collagen & hydroxyapatite?
400
These units of bone tissue are also known as Haversian systems.
What are osteons?
400
Calcium homeostasis is maintained when glands produce these two secretions.
What are parathyroid hormone and calcitonin?
400
Because the joints between the vertebrae the slightly movable, they can be classified as this.
What is amphiarthosis?
400
In the shoulder and knee, these are pockets of the synovial membrane that extend away from the joint.
What are bursa?
500
These are stem cells that become osteoblasts.
What are osteochondral progenitor cells?
500
These structures allow the processes of osteocytes to touch within the Haversian systems.
What are canaliculi?
500
Although genetic determine bone size and length, these two factors can affect expression of genes.
What are nutrition and hormones?
500
These are the three types of fibrous joints.
What are sutures, syndesmoses, and gomphoses?
500
The shoulder joint is more properly called this.
What is the glenohumeral joint?
