Foramen	foramen passageway for vessles and nerves - opening (vertebral foramen)
Canal	canal passage way through the substance of a bone - opening (vertebra canal for spinal nerve)
Fissure	fissure elogated cleft - opening
Sinus	sinus chamber within a bone - opening
Long Bone	long bones long & slender (femur, tibula, fibula, humerus)

Annulus fibrosus	A fibrous and cartilage ring that forms the circumference of a vertebrae
endosteum	cells lining the medullary cavity of a bone
periosteum	dense fibrous membrane covering the surface of bones except at the joints
retinaculum	holds organ or tissue in place
galabella	inner eye (CV1)
collagen	the main component of bone that has the piezoelectric quality
remodeling	is continual changing of bone in response to functional demands
cancellous	bone that contains trabeculas
axial skeleton	forms the axis of the body. Includes the head, vertebral column, ribs and sternum. Provides the body with form and protection.
