Define Long bones | Consist of a body and 2 articular ends. |
Define Short bones | Consist of spongy tissue and have a thin layer of compact bone |
Define Flat bones | Consist of compact bone in form of 2 plates that enclose a layer of spongy tissue |
Define Irregular | Are a peculiar shape, can't be classified as long, short, or flat |
Define Sesamoid | Are small oval bones that develop in/near tendons and function to protect tendons from excessive wear |
