A

Ligaments, tendons, bursa and meniscus.

20
Q

What are the 6 classifications of bone?

A

Sutural, long, short, flat, irregular & sesamoid.

21
Q

What is the sutural bone?

A

A small, flat irregular between flat bones.

22
Q

What is a long bone?

A

A bone liner than it’s wide.
Ex: arms, legs or fingers.

23
Q

What is a short bone?

A

A small & bony bone.
Ex: carpals.

24
Q

What is a flat bone?

A

Broad, sheet-like bones.
Ex: ribs, roof of skull.

25
Q

What is an irregular bone?

A

Diversity of shapes.
Ex: vertebrae, facial bones.

26
Q

What is a sesamoid bone?

A

Small, flat,sesame seed shaped.
Ex: patella.

27
Q

What are the main structures that all long bones have?

A

Diaphysis, Epiphysis, and Metaphysis.

28
Q

What is a Diaphysis?

A

A shaft of a long bone (the body).

29
Q

What contains the wall of the diaphysis?

A

Compact bone.

30
Q

What is in between the walk of Diaphysis?

A

The medulla cavity (marrow cavity)

31
Q

What contains the medulla cavity?

A

Il hi concentration of blood vessels, and some yellow or red marrow. Endosteum: layer of reticular C.T.

32
Q

What is Epiphysis?

A

The end of the bone (both proximal and distal end)

33
Q

What is Epiphysis composed of?

A

Spongy bone.

34
Q

What is Metaphysis?

A

Epiphyseal plate or line between the shaft and the end of the bone.

35
Q

What is the Epiphyseal line made of?

A

Cartilage.

36
Q

What type of tissue is bone?

A

C.T.

37
Q

What are the 3 structural composed of bone?

A

Cells, ground substances and protein fibers.

38
Q

What are the 3 types of cells of bone?

A

Osteoblasts, osteocytes and osteoclasts.

39
Q

What is the bone solid or hard?

A

Due to mineral salts, calcium and phosphate.

40
Q

The minerals found in the bone are responsible for what?

A

Compression strength of the bone.

41
Q

What happens to the bone when has a lack of these minerals?

A

Loos of compression strength and bones will bend.

42
Q

What condition means a lack of minerals of the bone?

A

Rickets.

43
Q

What is collagen responsible for?

A

Strength and flexibility of the bone.
