This joint connects skull, pelvis, and vertebrae bones without allowing any movement

Incomplete break in the bones.
What is greenstick fracture?

What are ilium, ischium, pubis bone?
300
Joint allows extension and retraction of an appendage.
What is a hinge joint?
300
Deep socket in the Ischium that receives the head of the thigh bone.
What is Acetabulum?
300
Bone is pushed inward.
What is depressed?
300
Cartilage type that appears on the ends of bones, between the ribs and the sternum, and the forerunner of skeletal bones in the fetus.
What is Hyaline cartilage? Costal cartilage of ribs.
300
Points where bones of the appendicular skeleton connect to the axial skeleton
What is pectoral/shoulder girdle and pelvic girdle?
400
Joint type allows for rotating of head.
What is a pivot joint?
400
A rounded prominence at the end of a bone, most often used for articulation with another bone.
What is a condyle?
400
Closed fracture that occurs when pressure is applied to both ends of the bone, causing it to split into two fragments that jam into each other
What is an impact fracture?
400
Vertebrae considered by some to serve as the cushion or seat for the reproductive organs in both men and women.
What is sacrum?
400
Name of fossas where bones articulate with girdles.
What are glenoid cavity and acetabulum?
500
Joint type forms the growth regions of immature long bones and the intervertebral discs of the spinal column.
What is a cartilaginous joint?
500
Structure that encloses the nerve cord.
What is vertebral arch (foramina)?
