Across
  1. 3. Includes skull, ossicles, hyoid, vertebral column and rib cage
  2. 5. Connects muscle to bone
  3. 6. Connects bone to bone
  4. 7. Break down bone structure, remove damaged bone
  5. 9. Bones are vascular; True or False
  6. 10. Supports bone, is important in joints where bones are connected
  7. 12. Outer layer of bone tissue that is hard
  8. 16. These are types of cells that make bone
  9. 20. The bones of the vertebrae are this shape
  10. 22. Includes bones of arms/hands/scapular and feet/legs/pelvis
  11. 23. This colour marrow is where blood cells are made
  12. 24. Internal skeleton
  13. 25. Bone shape where length and width is similar ie. carpal bones
Down
  1. 1. Hard outer skeleton
  2. 2. A collection of blood
  3. 4. Bone shape is roundish, good at handling pressure
  4. 8. System Provides support, protection, storage of minerals and hematopoiesis
  5. 11. A major mineral bones store
  6. 13. System works closely with skeletal system to create movement
  7. 14. Osteoblasts mature into this type of cell; they maintain bone structure and make up majority of bone cells present
  8. 15. Degenerative joint condition causes pain/swelling
  9. 17. Bone shape where they are longer than they are wide ie. femur
  10. 18. Inner layer of bone where you find bone marrow
  11. 19. This colour marrow stores fat
  12. 21. The bones of the skull are this shape
