Bone properties
Calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, water
Provides strength and flexibility
Aging causes decrease
Femur
A rounded knuckle-like projection that forms part of a joint.
Condyle
Vertebrae
A small, smooth, flat surface that forms a joint with another bone.
Facet
Femoral, humeral
A rounded, ball-like end of a bone, often separated from the rest of the bone by a neck.
Head bone
A prominent ridge or elongated projection.
Crest
A projection above a condyle, often serving as an attachment point for muscles or ligaments.
Epicondyle
A less prominent ridge than a crest.
Line
A general term for any bony prominence or outgrowth.
Process bonw
A sharp, slender projection.
Spine
An interlocking line of union between bones, typically found in the skull
Suture
A large, blunt projection, typically found on the femur.
Trochanter
A small, rounded projection.
Tubercle
A large, rounded projection, often roughened for muscle attachmen
Tuberosity
A large, rounded projection, often roughened for muscle attachmen
Tuberosity
A small, smooth, flat surface that forms a joint with another bone (same as in processes).
Facet
A hole or opening through a bone, typically for the passage of nerves, blood vessels, or ligaments.
Foramen
A shallow depression or hollow, often serving as an articulation point or muscle attachment site.
Fossa
A small pit or depression, often for the attachment of a ligament or tendon.
Fovea
A canal-like passageway through a bone.
Meatus
An air-filled cavity within a bone, lined with mucous membrane, often connected to the nasal cavity.
Sinus
A groove or furrow on the surface of a bone, typically for the passage of a nerve, blood vessel, or tendon.
Sulcus
These joints permit little or no movement. They provide stability and protection.
Synarthroses (immovable)
These joints allow limited movement. They provide both stability and flexibility.
Amphiarthroses (slightly movable)
These joints permit a wide range of motion. They are essential for activities that require flexibility and mobility.
Diarthroses (freely movable)
These joints are connected by dense fibrous connective tissue, allowing for little or no movement. They provide stability and strength.
Fibrous Joints (slightly movable)
These joints are connected by cartilage, allowing for limited movement. They provide both stability and flexibility.
Cartilaginous Joints
