The study of bone is called | Osteology |
Which are functions of the skeletal system? | Support Acid-base balance Blood formation Protection movement electrolyte balance hormone secretion |
The connective tissue that makes up bone is called Blank______ tissue. | osseous |
What shape is the humerus? | Long |
Bones such as the carpals that have the same length and width are classified as _________ bones. | short bones |
Which osseous tissue is found on the surface of bones and composed of tightly arranged parallel osteons? | Compact |
What is the major producer of blood cells? | Red bone marrow |
The central space at the ends of long bones is occupied by Blank______. | spongy bone |
Which best describes osseous tissue? A connective tissue composed primarily of cartilage matrix and collagen A connective tissue consisting of loosely arranged protein fibers A connective tissue with a hardened matrix that makes up bone | A connective tissue with a hardened matrix that makes up bone |
Where do you find osteogenic cells? | Endosteum and periosteum |
Bones that are longer than they are wide are classified as | Long bones |
The calcium-phosphate salt that mineralizes bone tissue is called Blank______. | hydroxyapatite |
an osteocyte is a what? | bone cell |
calcitonin is | Calcitonin is a hormone secreted by cells in the thyroid when serum calcium levels are high |
Which are examples of short bones? Vertebrae Upper arm bone Carpals Most skull bones | Carpals (wrist) Tarsal (ankle) |
Bone tissue made up of parallel osteons that are tightly packed together is called | compact bone |
The interior of flat bones is composed of Blank______ bone. | spongy |
Are flat and long a type of bone? | |
Compact bone is found where? | Compact bone is found on the surface of bones. |
Lacunae are located between concentric rings of compact bone tissue called what? | Lamellae |
Osteons: | An osteon is the basic structural unit of compact bone, consisting of a central canal and its lamellae. |
Osteogenic cells are stem cells in the endosteum, periosteum, and central canals that can become chondrocytes. T OR F | False; Osteogenic cells are stem cells in the endosteum, periosteum, and central canals that can become osteoblasts rather than chondrocytes. |
Hydroxyapatite makes up part of which component of the bony matrix? | Inorganic; Hydroxyapatite is a calcium phosphate salt and is therefore inorganic (mineral). |
Trabeculae are Blank______ plates of bone found in Blank______ bone. | thin, spongy |
What bone shape are the carpal bones of the wrist? | Short |
What are the spaces between trabeculae in spongy bone filled with? | Bone marrow; More specifically, red marrow is found in the spongy bone of the epiphysis of a long bone, whereas yellow marrow is found in the medullary (marrow) cavity of the diaphysis. |
Ossification is Blank______. | bone formation |
What are the layers of bony matrix in compact bone tissue called? | Lamellae |
The bones of the skull form by which type of ossification? | Intramembranous Intramembranous ossification occurs within a fibrous membranous sheet. |
What are the thin plates forming spongy bone called? | trabeculae Trabeculae are the bony "spicules" or spikes found in spongy bone. |
Where does bone formation occur during endochondral ossification? | Hyaline cartilage model; Endochondral ossification occurs within hyaline cartilage. |
Bone marrow fills the spaces between trabeculae in Blank______ bone tissue. | spongy |
Compact bone is comprised of __________ | osteons |
Which type of bone growth involves the deposition of new tissue at the surface? | Appositional growth |
The process of bone formation is called | Ossification |
Mineral deposition into bones begin when? | In fetal ossification |
The layers of bony matrix arranged around the central canal of an osteon are called Blank______ lamellae. | concentric |
What is low blood calcium called? | Hypocalcemia |
As a flat bone is produced by intramembranous ossification, which cells are responsible for the resorption of bone tissue that carves out the spongy bone's trabeculae? | Osteoclasts |
What do osteoblasts do? | Osteoblasts build bone, they do not reabsorb it. |

Which hormone has a greater effect on bone growth? Estrogen Testosterone | Estrogen |
Which type of bone growth occurs within mature bone and results in the bone becoming thicker? | Appositional growth Appositional growth is the only type of growth to occur in mature bone. |
___________ growth occurs only in immature bone before the epiphyseal plate closes. | Interstitial |
The branch of medicine dealing with bone disorders is | orthopedics |
Where does the calcium and phosphate used to mineralize bone come from? | The blood |
What is a mass of blood in the tissues called? | Hematoma |
Which condition is characterized by excessive excitability of the nervous and muscular systems due to low blood calcium levels? | Hypocalcemia |
What often causes the loss of bone mass seen in osteoporosis in older women? | A loss of estrogen |
