Axial/Appendicular Skeletons
Across
- 1. tightly packed tissue that composes the wall of the diaphysis
- 3. a tube with a hollow chamber that is continuous with the spaces of the spongy bone
- 4. a layer of hyaline cartilage that coats the articulating portion of the epiphysis
- 5. bony plates that branch to make spongy bone
- 7. bone-forming cell
- 10. a tough, vascular covering of dense connective tissue
- 11. the shaft of a bone
- 12. another word for osteon; a cylinder-shaped unit formed by lamallae that are concentrically clustered around a central canal
- 13. mature bone cells
Down
- 2. cell that breaks down bone matrix
- 6. an extended portion of a long bone located at each end
