100

The amount of categories of bones in the skeletal system.

What is 5 types

100

This zone of ossification is the area of normal chondrocytes.

What is resting cartilage

100

This is another name for bone ossification

osteogenesis

100

A round or oval opening through a bone.

What is a foramen

100

This is a fracture where there is an open wound or breaks in the skin near the site of the broken bone.

Compound Fracture.

200

This is a bone with a thin and long shape.

Long Bone

200

This zone of ossification is where cell division stops and cells increase in size.

What is the Zone of Hypertrophy

200

This is the age when nearly all bones are ossified 

25 years
200

This type of bone marking has a smooth, rounded process that articulates with another bone.

What is a condyle

200

This is a fracture very common in children and when the bone breaks incompletely. 

Greenstick

300

This bone has a flat shape and a broad surface.

Flat Bone.

300

This zone of ossification is where chondrocytes undergo successive mitotic divisions.

What is the Zone of Proliferation

300

This is the age when bone ossification starts

The third month of fetal development.

300

This type of bone marking has a prominent ridge (process) where tendons or ligaments attach.

What is a crest

300

This is an incomplete fracture where the bone only extends into the outer layer of the bone but not completely through the entire bone. (2 names)

Fissure/ Hairline

400

This bone has a shape that does not conform to the usual types of bone shapes.

Irregular Bone

400

This zone of ossification is where the bone matrix is deposited on remnants of calcified cartilage and chondrocytes die.

What is the Zone of Deposition
400

This is the cause of bone ossification

Osteoblasts penetrate the disintegrating cartilage and replace it with spongy bone.

400

This bone marking has a shallow, basin-like depression in a bone, often serving as an articular surface.

What is a fossa

400

This is a fracture caused by excessive twisting 

Spiral Fracture.

500

This bone has a cubed shape.

Short bone
500

This zone of ossification is where dying cells begin to signal calcium and the cartilage matrix becomes harder making nutrition difficult.

What is the Zone of Calcification

500

This is the formation of extraskeletal bone in muscle and soft tissues. 

heterotopic ossification 

500

This bone marking has a very large, blunt irregularly shaped process.

What is a trochanter 

500

This is the most common bone people fracture

The clavicle.
