Question
Answer
material that makes up most of the skeleton of the fetus of a vertebrate   cartilage  
🗑
What structure characteristic is unique to vertebrates?   backbone  
🗑
functions of an exoskeleton   protection, support, movement, prevents water loss  
🗑
individual parts of an endoskeleton   bones  
🗑
process in which cartilage is replace by bone   ossification  
🗑
What are the 2 nutrients needed for proper bone development?   vitamin d and calcium  
🗑
importance of haversian canals   found in the bone and provide places for blood vessels and nerves  
🗑
4 types of moveable joints   ball and socket, hinge, pivot, and gliding  
🗑
importance of vitamin d in bone   allows bone to collect the calcium  
🗑
importance of calcium in bones   gives energy and strength to the bone  
🗑
a tough, elastic, connective tissus that attaches muscle to bone is a____   tendon  
🗑
nonstriated or__muscles move many of the internal parts of the body.involuntary controlled   smooth  
🗑
bones connected with one another at a __ that is often flexible, aiding the movement of an organism or its parts.   joint  
🗑
__is controlled by hormones and involves the shedding of the exoskeleton   molting  
🗑
the support structures found in many complex animals make up the__   skeletal system  
🗑
living cells that are found within the minerals of a bone   osteocyte  
🗑
during muscle contraction, one end of the muscle and the bone to which it is attached do not move. site is called__   point of origin  
🗑
during muscle contraction, one end of the muscle and the bone to which it is attached move.   point of insertion  
🗑
protein that composes the thicker part of the filaments in striated muscle   myosine  
🗑
muscles   specialized tissue. work with the skeleton to provide movement in vertebrates and arthropods  
🗑
muscle tone   provides enough contraction of muscles to support the body and keep the muscles ready for quick contractions  
🗑
striated   voluntary muscles. one of 3 types of vertebrate muscles. most important in terms of locomotion  
🗑
extensor   the muscle which when contracted, causes a joint to straighten. triceps  
🗑
flexor   muscle in which when contracted causes the bending of a joint. biceps.  
🗑
periosteum   all bones are enclosed by an outer layer called__  
🗑
joints are held together by a connective tissues called   ligaments  
🗑
bone marrow   compact bone, the center cavity contains this tissue.  
🗑
gliding joints   give bones flexibility  
🗑
fixed joints are in   the skull  
🗑
type of joint formed by the joining of the femur and pelvis is called   ball-and-socket  
🗑
jet propulsion   used by jellyfish, they push water underneath to push in the opposite direction of the water.  
🗑
water vascular system   starfish  
🗑
setae   small hairlike structures that are on each segment of the worm.  
🗑
elbow   hinge  
🗑
shoulder and hip   ball and socket  
🗑
hypo of sliding filaments   contracts fully or not at all  
🗑
CP   creatine phosphate. formed when ATP donates phosphate molecules to creatine. when energy is needed, the phosphate is released to join ADP to form ATP. the creatine is the reused  
🗑
oxygen debt   when cell is obtaining ATP energy, anaerobic respiration.  
🗑
osteoporosis   loss of bone minerals  
🗑
structure of bones   osteocytes(bone cells). has haversian canals, controlled by striated muscle  
🗑
exoskeleton   external, found in arthropods  
🗑
arthropods   moves using muscle and skeletons. opposite muscle movement occurs. muscle on inside of exoskeleton  
🗑
fiber   long cells in striated muscle that have many nuclei, made of fibrils  
🗑
fibrils   make up fibers  
🗑
sarcomere   part of the fibril from one Z line to another  
🗑
actin   thinner filament  
🗑
acetycholine   causes a release of calcium ions to muscle fibers  
🗑
density   mass/volume  
🗑
marrow   stores fat  
🗑
spongy bone   tough tissue, not containing minerals  
🗑
z lines   actin point of attachment  
🗑
periosteum   bones' outer covering  
🗑
minerals   osteoblasts store___  
🗑
