THE PREFIX OSTEO REFERS TO

BONE

100

GLAND THAT CONTAINS FOUR PARATHYROID GLANDS

THYROID

100

THE EPIPHYSEAL PLATE SEPARATES THIS STRUCTURE FROM THE EPIPHYSIS

DIAPHYSIS

100

FIBROUS JOINTS CALLED SUTURES ARE FOUND IN THIS PART OF THE SKELETON

SKULL

100

JOINTS THAT ALLOW FOR ONLY ROTATIONAL MOTION AS IN C1 AND C2 VERTEBRAL INTERACTION

PIVOT

200

THE SUFFIX BLAST MEANS THE CELL IS

IMMATURE

200

HOROMONE SECRETED BY THE PARATHYROID GLANDS TO REGULATE THE CONCENTRATION OF CALCIUM IONS IN THE BLOOD

PARATHYROID HOROMONE (PTH)

200

EPIPHHYSEAL PLATES ARE MADE OF WHAT TISSUE

CARTILAGE

200

FIBROUS JOINTS ARE SYNDESMOSIS ARE FOUND IN THIS AREA OF THE SKELETON

FOREARM

200

JOINTS THAT ALLOW FOR MOTION IN ONE PLANE AS AT THE KNEE AND ELBOW

HINGE

300

A BONE FORMING CELL WHICH PRODUCES THE BONE MATRIX

OSTEOBLAST

300

WHEN THE THYROID DETECTS AN INCREASE IN BLOOD CALCIUM LEVELS IT SECRETES THE HOROMONE

CALCITONIN

300

WHEN BONE GROWS IN DIAMETER, THE BONE GROWTH IS REFERED TO AS

APPOSITIONAL BONE

300

CARTILAGINOUS JOINTS ARE SYNCHRONDROSIS AND FOUND IN THIS PORTION OF THE SKELETON

RIBS

300

JOINTS THAT ALLOW FOR MOVEMENT IN ALL DIRECTIONS AT A THE SHOULDER AND HIP

BALL AND SOCKET

400

BEAMS OF BONE LOCATED INSIDE THE BONE AND FORMS A LATTICEWORK PATTERN

TRABECULAE

400

CALCITONIN DECREASES THE ACTIVITY OF CELLS THAT BREAK DOWN DETERIORATED BONE AND RELEASE MINERALS

OSTEOCLASTS

400

CELLS THAT BREAK DOWN DETERIORATED BONE REMOVE BONE FROM THE MEDULLARY CAVITY TO ENLARGE IT AS WE GROW.

OSTEOCLASTS

400

CARTILAGINOUS JOINTS ARE SYMPHYSIS AND FOUND IN THE INTERVERTEBRAL DISCS OF THIS PORTION OF THE SKELETON

VERTEBRAL COLUMN

400

JOINTS THAT ALLOW FLAT SURFACES TO GLIDE ACROSS ONE ANOTHER AS CONNECTING THE CLAVICLE TO THE SCAPULA

PLANE

500

COMPOUND THAT CONTAINS CALCIUM AND PHOSPHORUS IMPORTANT IN BONE REGENERATION, BONE HARDNESS AND BONE COMPRESSION

HYDROXYAPATITE

500

WHEN TOO MUCH CALCIUM IS DETECTED IN THE BLOOD, CALCIUM IS STORED THROUGHOUT THIS SYSTEM

SKELETAL

500
THIS STRUCTURE IS FORMED AFTER BLOOD CLOTS AND FORMS A MASS OF CONNECTIVE TISSUE THAT CONNECTS THE ENDS OF BROKEN BONE.

CALLUS

500

A JOINT THAT IS MORE COMPLEX AND ALLOW FOR A GREATER RANGE OF MOTION THAN FIBROUS OR CARTILAGINOUS

SYNOVIAL

500

JOINTS THAT ALLOW FOR ALL MOTION EXCEPT ROTATION AS IN THE THUMB/HAND ARTICULATION

SADDLE
