- There are multiple categories of joints: fibrous, cartilaginous, and synovial. Within the synovial category there are many types of joints like the _______ joints. These are designed to allow movement up and down or forward and back. However, it limits rotations and is only used in bones with smooth surfaces against each other to allow movement across each other with minimal friction.

- Old age also tends to make bones ______ and they lose their density. This is very common with old age and over 23% of adults experience this. This causes a lot of pain and is not curable.
- There is a type of tumor that begins in the cartilage inside bones and it is called ________. There is usually no pain or other symptoms and are usually only found by X-Ray. In most cases nothing happens, but in some rare occasions, it may weaken the bone enough to cause fractures. It is common in anyone ages 10-20 years old and is usually in the small bones of the hands.
- This is found parallel to the Radius. The ______ along with the Radius help provide rotation to allow maximum movement of the wrist. It is part of a hinge joint and a gliding joint.
- There are different sections of the spine and different types of vertebrae in each section. One of the types of vertebrae is the __________ vertebrae. These vertebrae serve to provide mobility and stability to the head. The first three vertebrae of this type are the most important because they determine how the neck moves as well as protecting the spinal cord.

- This is found collateral to the Ulna. It along with the Ulna help provide maximum rotation for the most movement possible for the wrist. It is part of a hinge joint and a gliding joint.
- As the human body ages, it’s bones are susceptible to many more diseases than when the body is younger. One of the more common diseases is _____________. This disease causes the bones to become weak and brittle, which can lead to the bones getting fractured more often, and less strength to do mundane tasks.

- The human body has a lot of functions it needs to pertain homeostasis. The heart pumps blood through the body to get oxygen and other minerals to the rest of the body. But, where do the red blood cells come from? Red blood cells are produced by the skeletal system in a process called ___________. These cells are then transported to the lungs to get oxidized, then to the heart to get pumped to the rest of the body.

It is also above the Tibia/Fibula and creates a hinge joint with them and the Patella.
- The skeletal system is needed in many ways, but they are still susceptible to diseases and types of _________. _________ is when the cells in a particular organ, or in this case bone tissue, start to multiply due to a flaw in a cell’s homeostasis. They multiply faster than normal cells and deprive the normal cells of nutrients. But due to them being made from your cells, the white blood cells in your body can not detect the _______ cells until it is too late to destroy them.

- These vertebrae start at the end of the thoracic vertebrae and end when the sacrum starts. It functions to support the top half of the spine and to deal with your main body weight. These take the most stress from lifting heavy objects so when people say,”Lift with your legs not your back,” they are referring to these vertebrae.
- The skeletal system is, in many ways, very important to maintain __________.

- These bones are in your feet and function with the tarsals to make a good shape of the foot to deal with weight. They help form a good arch shape and it is their main function in the foot.
- This bone is the upper half of the jaw and is superior to the mandible. The ________ functions with the mandible to chew up food and performs the same actions as the mandible, not to mention it holds the upper teeth.
- Your body needs a lot of minerals and fats to maintain homeostasis. The body needs somewhere to ________ these minerals; which is where the skeletal system comes into play.
