Skeletal System
Across
- 2. one fragment is driven into the other
- 5. small and round
- 7. a break in a bone
- 10. occurs at an angle other than 90 degrees
- 12. cube like shape
- 14. fracture straight across bone horizontally
- 15. partial fracture
- 17. at least one end of bone tears through skin
Down
- 1. thin and curved
- 3. several breaks in many small pieces
- 4. as mineral salts are deposited in the collagen fiber framework, they crystallize and the tissue hardens
- 5. bone segments are pulled apart from twisting motion
- 6. complex shapes
- 8. bone building cells
- 9. skin remains in tact
- 11. mature bone cells
- 13. huge cells that release enzymes and acids
- 16. cylindrical like shape
