Across
  1. 4. contains our limbs and pelvis.
  2. 7. Is the cartilage that provides structural support to the nose. It is considered a hyaline cartilage.
  3. 10. The skull protects the brain,Rib cage protects the organs these are examples of__________
  4. 11. his is the cartilage that attaches to your ribs to your sternum it is categorized as a hyaline cartilage.
  5. 15. Is the most prevalent cartilage, it is also commonly known as articular cartilage.
  6. 16. a small, wing-like projection of bone that points outward from each vertebra along the spine.
  7. 19. A large prominence on the side of the bone. Some of the largest muscle groups and most dense connective tissues attach
  8. 20. refers to a long, thin projection, often with a rough surface. Ridge and crest refer to a long, narrow line.

  1. 1. a rounded prominence. especially : a large prominence on a bone usually serving for the attachment of muscles or ligaments.
  2. 2. Is a connective tissue of the skeletal system. Its purpose is to cushion the joints, Allow for free movement of a joint.
  3. 3. small rounded point of a bone. It also refers to a nodule attached to bone, mucous membrane (moist layer lining parts of the body), or skin.
  4. 5. Contains loosely packed collagen fibers and a generous amount of elastic fibers.
  5. 6. A compressible but resilient type of cartilage. Can act as shock absorber.
  6. 8. Refers to a large prominence, which often provides structural support to the overlying hyaline cartilage.
  7. 9. known as body fat.
  8. 12. vary in shape and structure and therefore do not fit into any other category (flat, short, long, or sesamoid).
  9. 13. A raised or prominent part of the edge of a bone. Crests are often the sites where connective tissue attaches muscle to bone.
  10. 14. a bump or protuberance on a long bone where tendons and ligaments connect.
  11. 17. small bone commonly found embedded within a muscle or tendon near joint surfaces.
  12. 18. made up of a layer of spongy bone between two thin layers of compact bone.
