Question
Answer
Slightly movable   Amphiarthroses  
🗑
growth in bone diameter   Appositional Growth  
🗑
movement   Articulation  
🗑
the round head of one bone fits into a depression or cup formed by another bone or a group of bones. (e.g., shoulder and hip)   Ball-and-Socket  
🗑
an inflammation of the bursae that restricts motion, causes pain   Bursitis  
🗑
collar bone   Clavicle  
🗑
the ends of bones rest in a depression of the opposing joint bone (e.g., between radius and ulna; between the condyloid process and the mandible)   condyloid joint  
🗑
shaft in a long bone   Diaphysis  
🗑
freely movable   Diarthroses  
🗑
inner lining   Endosteum  
🗑
at the ends of long bones a layer cartilage forms.   Epiphyseal plate  
🗑
replacement follows in ends   Epiphysis  
🗑
a large opening in the occipital bone of the cranium.   Foramen magnum  
🗑
is a shallow pyriform, articular surface, which is located on the lateral angle of the scapula. It is directed laterally and forward and articulates with the head of the humerus; it is broader below than above and its vertical diameter is the longest.   Glenoid cavity  
🗑
bones glide slightly over each other. Ligaments prevent movement. (e.g., vertebra–vertebra; tarsal and carpal bones)   Gliding joint  
🗑
between the teeth and jaw   Gomphosis  
🗑
blood formation   Hematopoiesis  
🗑
allows angular movement in one direction like the opening and closing of a door. (e.g., knee, elbow)   Hinge joint  
🗑
connects to the skull by ligaments. Supports the tongue. Attached to the C4 (cervical) vertebrae.   Hyoid bone  
🗑
Point where two bones meet and interact   Joint  
🗑
associated with the lacrimal glands or tear glands/ducts   lacrimal bone  
🗑
holes in the bone matrix   lacunae  
🗑
thin plates or narrow sheets in the matrix   lamellae  
🗑
tie bones to bones   ligaments  
🗑
sites of articulation between the skull and the vertebral column.   occipital condyle  
🗑
forms the point of the elbow   olecranon process  
🗑
embryonic bone formation   ossification  
🗑
means bone   osteo  
🗑
Responsible for osteogenesis (new bone growth); Source of collagen, calcium salts   osteoblast  
🗑
giant cell Source of acid, provides enzymes for osteolysis (breaking apart of a bone cell) and absorption of cell parts; Promotes calcium homeostasis   osteoclast  
🗑
new bone growth   osteogenesis  
🗑
breaking apart of a bone cell   osteolysis  
🗑
Basic functional unit of long, compact bone; columnar in shape.   osteon  
🗑
Less than normal ossification (mineral content) in bone patella- kneecap   osteopenia  
🗑
kneecap   patella  
🗑
bones that make up the shoulder   pelvic girdle  
🗑
outer covering   periosteum  
🗑
permits bone rotation   pivot joint  
🗑
where red blood cells and white blood cells are produced   red bone marrow  
🗑
begins as five bones and fuses later in child development; vertebrae located in hip area   sacrum  
🗑
allows angular motion and a wide range of other movements (e.g., thumb)   saddle joint  
🗑
shoulder blade   scapula  
🗑
A central depression in the sphenoid bone which houses the pituitary gland   sella turcica  
🗑
cranium   suture  
🗑
the cartilage between the pelvis and between vertebrae   symphysis  
🗑
immovable   synarthrosis  
🗑
between bone and cartilage; epiphyseal plates   synchondrosis  
🗑
ligament connection between tibia and fibula   syndesmosis  
🗑
most complex joint having a joint capsule with synovial fluid for lubrication   synovial joints  
🗑
fat is stored here   yellow bone marrow  
🗑
cheek bones   zygomatic bones  
🗑
