cyan- means what?

blue 

100

What is an example of a flat bone?

Cranial, sternum, rib, scapulae, clavicle 

100

The spaces between trabeculae can be filled with what two things?

air and red bone marrow 

100

Bone building cells are called ________________ and later become mature bone cells or ______________________. 

osteoblast;osteocyte

100

A fracture in which the bone bends rather than breaks- very common in children- is called what?

Greenstick

200
What is the word part for tooth / teeth?

dent-

dont-

200

What is an example of a sesamoid bone?

Patellar bone 

200

What is the structures that radiate from osteocytes and create pathways for nutrients and oxygen to reach osteocytes?

canaliculi

200

What are the only bone cells that undergo cell division called?

Osteoprogenitor cells

200

A fracture that occurs at an angle, typically from falling at an angle, is called what?

Oblique fracture 


300
What is the word part for skin?

cut-

derm-

300

What type of cartilage is articular cartilage made up of? 

Hyaline 

300

List 2 bones that contain red bone marrow

Pelvis

Ribs

Sternum 

Vertebrae

Ends of humerus and femur 

300

What 3 things are found in a bone's extracellular  matrix?

Water, mineral salts, and collagen fibers

300

What is the first step of fracture repair?

Hematoma forms. Bones are vascular so when bone breaks, so do the associated blood vessels. Blood brings WBC to remove dead bone tissue 

400

What is a somatic cell?

a body cell (a non-gamete)

400

What two minerals do bones store?

Calcium and phosphorous 

400

Draw and label an osteon. (Hint: 5 things should be labeled)

Osteocyte

Lamellae

Lacunae

Canaliculi 

Central Canal 

400

Where do osteoclasts come from?

fusion of white blood cells 

400

What are the 3 hormones involved in calcium homeostasis?

PTH, calcitonin, calcitriol

500

What is syndactyly?

a condition where children are born with fused fingers 

500

What is the scientific name for blood cell production?

Hematopoiesis 

500

What is another name for the central canal?

Haversian canal

500

Draw a Venn diagram and compare/contrast the two types of ossification. List two differences for each type and one similarity.

Intramembranous- skull and clavicle, no hyaline model, one ossification center, directly forms from mesenchyme 


Endochondral- all bones except the skull/clavicle, hyaline model, multiple ossification centers


Both- in utero, create spongy and compact bones 

500

Draw a negative feedback loop demonstrating calcium homeostasis. 

needs to emphasize that when blood calcium levels rise, it is because osteoclasts are becoming more active, depositing calcium into the bloodstream and lowering bone density.   When blood calcium levels fall, it is because osteoblasts are becoming more active, depositing bone and increasing bone density.
