A

movement of limb in a circular or cone shape, ex: arm circles

37

38
Q

Compact Bone

A

type of bone tissue that is the outer most layer

39
Q

Cancellous (Spongy) Bone

A

type of bone tissue that is located internal to the compact bone

40
Q

Trabeculae

A

tissue making bands and rods within the bone, the space within is filled with red marrow, producing red blood cell (looks like webs)

41
Q

Periosteum

A

a collective tissue that surrounds the bone that the tendon of muscles are attach to

42
Q

Osteons

A

cylindrical vasular tunnels formed by osteoclast-rich tissues that is responsible for the strength of the bone

43
Q

Haversion Canal

A

at the center of each osteon that runs longitudinally, carrying nerves and blood vessels

44
Q

Nutrient Artery

A

supplies large bones (arms, forearms, thighs, legs) with nutrients, enters the bone through the nutrient foramen

45
Q

Diaphysis

A

shaft of the bone, made up for compact bone that surrounds the Medullary (marrow) Cavity

46
Q

Medullary (marrow) Cavity

A

inside the diaphysis, filled with fatty yellow marrow

47
Q

Epiphysis

A

each end of the bone; some bones has multiple epiphysis, long bones of fingers and toes only have 1

48
Q

Metaphysis

A

made of trabeculae that separates the epiphysis and diaphysis

49
Q

Epiphyseal (Growth) plate

A

plate between the epiphysis and metaphysis

50
Q

Ossification

A

the process which the epiphyseal plate is fused together, growth in that bone stops

51
Q

Axial Skeleton

A

the part of the skeleton that contains the skull, vertebral column, sacrum, coccyx, and thoracic cage; mainly the middle part of the body

52
Q

Appendicular Skeleton

A

the part of the skeleton that contains the pectoral girdle, upper and lower limb bones, and pelvic girdle; anything that isn’t the axial skeleton
