Skeletal system
Across
- 1. bone segments pulled apart from twisting motion
- 3. attachment for tendons and ligaments
- 5. stimulates absorption of calcium and phosphate
- 6. counteracts PTH, inhibits osteoblasts activity and stimulates calcium uptake by the bones
- 7. straight across long axis of bone
- 9. promotes osteoblasts activity and the synthesis of bone matrix
- 11. Longer than it is wide
- 15. high calcium numbers in blood
- 16. small and round bone, embedded in tendons
- 17. thin and curved bone
- 19. complex shape
- 20. one fragment driven into another
Down
- 2. small dark spaces between the lamellar that contains mature bone cells, osteocytes
- 4. cube-like shape
- 8. joints
- 10. low levels of calcium in the blood
- 12. only one side of bone broken
- 13. break in bone
- 14. many breaks
- 18. break at a angle that is no 90 degrees
