(ANS205) 3. Physiology of Bone
Across
- 1. The type of fracture where the bone is broken into smaller pieces
- 3. These components include Calcium and Phosphrous salts and provide hardness and rigidity to the bone
- 6. The type of fracture that is located at the junction of an epiphysis and diaphysis
- 7. The formation of true bone by deposition of calcium salts in a matrix of osteoid tissue
- 8. The cellular component of bone that is the mature bone cell that maintains the bone matrix
- 9. These components of bone include giant multinucleated cells that secrete acids and enzymes to dissolve bone matrix
- 11. The continuous turnover of bone in mature animals is called ___________, during which atrophy, hypertrophy, rearrangement and repair can take place
Down
- 2. These bone forming cells are found in all bone surfaces and secretes organic components of the matrix
- 4. The type of fracture where one side of the bone is broken or splintered while the other side is intact but bent
- 5. This part of the osteonal system includes tiny canals that radiate from the central canal to the lacunae to form a transport system
- 7. The inflammation of bone and bone marrow
- 10. This element of bone contributes to the resilience and toughness of the bones, it forms as an organic matrix prior to the maturation of bone tissue
