| The ends of a developing bone? | Epiphysis |
| The shaft of a long bone? | Diaphysis |
| Membrane that forms the covering of bones except their articulate surfaces? | Periosteum |

| The dense, hard layer of bone tissue? | Compact Bone |
| The tough, connective tissue membrane lining the medullary canal that contains bone marrow? | Endosteum |
| Part of the long bone that contains red bone marrow? | Cancellous/ spoungy bone |
| The place were 2 bones connect? | Joint |
| A joint that produces no movement? | Synarthorotic Joint |
| A joint that permits very little movement? | Amphiarthrotic Joints |
| A joint that allows for free movement in a variety of different directions? | Diarthrotic |
| Movement away from the midline? | abduction |
| Movement of a body part towards the midline? | Adduction |
| The process of moving a body part forward? | Protraction |
| The process of moving a body part around a central axis? | Rotation |
| The process of lying supine/face up; palm and feet upward? | Supination |
| The central portion of the skeletion that consists of the skull, sternum, ribs, vertebrae,sacrum, and coccyx | Axial Skeleton |
