Which cell secretes osteoid, the organic component new bone matrix -osteoblast
Which cell is mature bone cell that maintains bone tissue metabolism -osteocyte
Which cell reabsorbs bone by releasing acid and enzymes that digest the bone matrix -osteoclast
What is the shaft or body of a typical long bone called - diaphysis
Which structure is the dense fibrous membrane covering the external surface of bone except at joint surfaces -Periosteum 
Which thin membrane lines the medullary cavity - endosteum
What is the repeating structural unit of compact bone, consisting of concentric lamellae around a central canal - osteon 
In compact bone, what is the name of the small space that contains an osteocyte - lacuna
Which microscopic channels connect lacunae and help osteocytes communicate through the bone matrix - Canaliculi 
The central (haversian) canal contains which structures - blood and lymphatic vessels
Which hormone increase the rate and number of osteoclasts, helping raise blood calcium levels -Parathyroid hormone (PTH)
Which statement correctly describes spongy bone - it contains trabeculae and does not contain osteons
In which process does bone form directly within mesenchyme -intramembranous ossification
Which process forms bone by replacing a hyaline cartilage model? -Endochondral ossification 
In which epiphyseal plate zone do chondrocytes divide rapidly - zone of proliferation 
Which option lists the five epiphyseal plate zones in the correct order from the epiphyseal side toward the diaphyseal side - resting cartilage – proliferation- hypertrophy- calcification- ossification
What is appositional growth of bone - growth that increases bone thickness by adding tissue at the outer surface
Which list contains the structures that make up the axial skeleton -skull, auditory ossicles, hyoid, vertebral column, sternum, ribs
Which option lists the five main bone types classified by shape -long, short, flat, irregular, sesamoid
Which bone marking is a tube-like opening - meatus
Which bone marking is smooth flat articular surface - facet

Which list correctly identifies the eight cranial bones - frontal, two parietal, two temporal, occipital, sphenoid, ethmoid
Which structure lies between the frontal bone and the two parietal -coronal
Why is a fracture at the pterion clinically important -it can damage the middle meningeal artery and cause an epidural hematoma
Which cranial bone contains the foremen magnum -occupital
Which feature of the temporal bone articulates with the condylar process of the maniable to form the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) - mandibular fossa and articular tubercle 
The cribriform plate of which bone contains olfactory formation for the passage of olfactory nerve fibers? -Ethmoid
The hypophyseal fossa which houses the pituitary gland, is located in which bone - sphenoid 
Which option lists the seven bones that form orbit -frontal, maxilla, lacrimal, ethmoid, palatine, sphenoid, zygomatic
-frontal, max Which facial bone forms the upper jaw and contribute to the floor of the orbit and the hard palate - maxilla

Which description identifies the atlas - the first cervical vertebrae (C1), a ring-shaped vertebrae without a body
Which feature distinguishes the axis from another typical cervical vertebrae - the dens
Which pair of spinal curves are secondary curves in an adult cervical and lumbar
What occurs in a herniated invertebrate disc - the nucleus pulposus is pushed out through the annulus fibrous and may compress a spinal nerve root
The remnant of a closed epiphyseal plate is called the epiphyseal line
The ongoing replacement of old bone tissue with new bone tissue is called bone remodeling
In the reactive phases of fracture repair the initial mass of blood at the fractures site is called a fractur hematoma
During the reparative state osteoblasts produce a spongy bone trabeculae that form a bony callus
The hormone that inhibits osteoclasts activity is calcitonin 
The adult bone formed by the fusion of five sacral vertebrae is the sacrum 
The small fused vertebrae inferior to the sacrum for the coccyx
