What type of bone is porous and found at the end of long bones?

Spongy Bone

100

True or false: There's 4 sets of floating ribs 

False. 

100

What is: an incomplete break in a bone where the bone splits, cracks, or breaks but does not break completely through, shift, or become displaced

A fissure fracture 

100

What bone disorder matches this description: a common, "silent" bone disease characterized by decreased bone mass and density, which leads to weak, fragile bones that are highly susceptible to fractures. It occurs when the body fails to form enough new bone, or when too much old bone is reabsorbed by the body, altering the structural integrity of the skeleton

Osteoporosis 

100

What is this an example of: Examples include the elbow, knee, and finger joints, this type of synovial joint allows for movement in only one plane, similar to a door.

Hinge Joint

200

What canal runs through the center of an osteon and contains blood vessels and nerves?

Central (Haversian) Canal

200

True or false: The cranial bone thats shaped like a "bat" is the palatine bone. 

False

200

What is: a specific type of broken bone where the break runs straight across the bone, perpendicular (angle) to the long axis. These are typically clean, horizontal breaks that go all the way through the bone, often classified as complete fractures

Transverse Fracture 

200

What bone disorders match this description: a disorder that causes the softening and weakening of bones in children, typically resulting from an extreme, prolonged deficiency of vitamin D, calcium, or phosphate

Rickets 

200

What is this an example of: Connecting bones to other bones, these strong, fibrous connective tissues stabilize joints and restrict abnormal movement.

ligaments

300

What is the lining around a bone called? 

Periosteum 

300

True or false: provides structural support, protects vital organs, and enables movement by acting as levers for muscles relates to the functions of the skeletal system. 

True 

300

What is: a type of complete bone break that occurs when a long bone is subjected to a severe twisting force or torque

Spiral Fracture 

300

What is this: also known as osteophytes, occur

when the body grows small projections on the edges

of bones

Bone spurs

300

what is this an example of:  Found in the shoulder and hip, this type of synovial joint offers the greatest range of motion, allowing for movement in multiple axes.

Ball and socket joint 

400

What bone cell breaks down bone tissue?

Osteoclasts

400

True or false: osteoblasts break down bones, osteoclasts are mature bones, and osteocytes build bones. 

False: 

Osteoblasts - build

Osteoclasts - break down 

Osteocytes - mature bone cells 

400

what is: a break that occurs at a diagonal or slanted angle across the shaft of a bone

oblique fracture 

400

What bone disorder matches this description: a condition where bone tissue becomes fibrous, making bones weaker

Fibrous dysplasia

400

what is this an example of: Immovable or fixed joints, such as those found between the plates of the cranium, are classified as this type.

Fibrous Joints (or Synarthroses)

500

What small channels allow the osteocytes communicate and exchange nutrients?

Caniliculi

500

True or false: the largest foot bones are cuboid and navicular 

False: calcaneus and talus 

500

what is: an incomplete break in a bone where the bone bends and cracks rather than breaking completely into separate pieces

A greenstick fracture 
500

What bone disorder is this: common cause of heel pain, inflammation of the plantar fascia,walking can be painful

Plantar fasciitis

500

what is this an example of: This specifically shaped joint, found at the base of the thumb, allows for biaxial movement (flexion/extension and abduction/adduction).

Saddle Joint
