- 16. the bones surrounding the mouth and nose and contributing to the orbits
- 17. joins bones with a fibrous joint capsule that is continuous with the periosteum of the joined bones and surrounds the bones articulating surfaces
- 18. Bone marrow characterized by meshes of the reticular network that contain the developmental stages of red blood cells white blood cells and megakaryocytes
- 19. a joint an area where two bones are attached for the purpose of motion of body parts
- 24. a fluid-filled sac or saclike cavity especially one countering friction at a joint

- 27. a layer of cartilage separating adjacent vertebrae in the spine
- 29. the axis of a convex articular surface is parallel with the longitudinal axis of the bone
- 33. a chronic progressive disease causing inflammation in the joints and resulting in painful deformity and immobility especially in the fingers wrists feet and ankles
- 34. designated as those bones that are as wide as they are long provide support and stability with little to no movement
- 36. a collapse of a vertebra
- 43. excessive inward curvature of the spine
- 45. occurring around 2 axes at right angles to each other
- 46. any of the minute tubes that form a network in bone and contain blood vessels.
- 49. a thin layer membrane scale or platelike tissue or part especially in bone tissue
- 50. a lifelong process where mature bone tissue is removed from the skeleton and new bone tissue is formed
- 51. a small channel or duct
- 54. connected entirely by cartilage allow more movement between bones than a fibrous joint but less than the highly mobile synovial joint
- 59. bones whose principal function is either extensive protection or the provision of broad surfaces for muscular attachment
- 64. hard dense bones that provide strength structure and mobility longer than they are wide
- 65. the shaft or central part of a long bone
- 66. characteristics on the surface of the axial and appendicular bones that indicate attachments articulations or openings for nerves and blood vessels
- 67. a dense layer of vascular connective tissue enveloping the bones except at the surfaces of the joints
- 68. a surgical procedure to restore a fracture or dislocation to the correct alignment
- 69. a bone fracture in which one of the fragments is driven into another fragment
- 73. a break or splinter of the bone into more than two fragments
- 74. the natural process of bone formation the hardening into a bony substance
- 75. degeneration of joint cartilage and the underlying bone most common from middle age onward
- 76. bone marrow that is yellow with fat found at the ends of long bones in adults
- 77. the formation of blood or of blood cells in the living body
Down
- 1. a space between the bones of the skull in an infant or fetus where ossification is not complete and the sutures not fully formed
- 2. interstices filled with embryonic connective tissue or bone marrow
- 3. permit sliding or gliding movements in the plane of articular surfaces
- 4. the compact noncancellous portion of bone that consists largely of concentric lamellar osteons and interstitial lamellae
- 5. the topmost vertebra of the backbone articulating with the occipital bone of the skull
- 6. a joint with saddleshaped articular surfaces that are convex in one direction and concave in another and that permit movements in all directions except axial rotation
- 7. a cavity or depression
- 8. a bone cell formed when an osteoblast becomes embedded in the matrix it has secreted
- 9. a condition in which the annulus fibrous of the vertebral disc is torn enabling the nucleus to herniate or extrude through the fibers
- 12. a large multinucleate bone cell that absorbs bone tissue during growth and healing
- 13. the ventrally concave curve of the fetal vertebral column retained in the thoracic and sacral regions as the thoracic and sacral kyphosis
- 14. formed between two or more bones where the bones can only move along one axis to flex or extend
- 15. abnormal lateral curvature of the spine
- 20. bones which from their peculiar form cannot be grouped as long bone short bone flat bone or sesamoid bone
- 21. a matrix of connective tissue consisting of bundles of strong predominantly type I collagen fibres connecting periosteum to bone
- 22. permits movement in two planes allowing flexion extension adduction
- 23. an immovably fixed joint between bones connected by fibrous tissue
- 26. an outgrowth of bone that can occur along the edges of a bone
- 28. a hyaline cartilage plate in the metaphysis at each end of a long bone
- 30. articulation that permits free movement
- 31. any of the small channels in bone that transmit blood vessels from the periosteum into the bone and that lie perpendicular to and communicate with the haversian canals
- 32. the part of the skeleton that consists of the bones of the head and trunk of a vertebrate
- 35. ventrally convex curves of the vertebral column that develop postnatally in the cervical and lumbar regions
- 37. a stretching or tearing of ligaments
- 38. the central cavity of bone shafts where red bone marrow and yellow bone marrow is stored
- 39. the highly specialized connective tissue of diarthrodial joints
- 40. a fracture of the bone occurring typically in children in which one side of the bone is broken and the other only bent
- 41. a disease in which defective metabolism of uric acid causes arthritis especially in the smaller bones of the feet deposition of chalkstones and episodes of acute pain
- 42. a cell that secretes the matrix for bone formation
- 44. a natural or manufactured joint or coupling in which a partially spherical end lies in a socket allowing multidirectional movement and rotation
- 47. the portion of the skeleton of vertebrates consisting of the bones or cartilage that support the appendages
- 48. A type of articulation between bony surfaces that permits limited motion and is connected by ligaments or elastic cartilage
- 52. a solid swelling of clotted blood within the tissues
- 53. occurring around one axis movement only in one plane
- 55. a medical condition in which the bones become brittle and fragile from loss of tissue typically as a result of hormonal changes or deficiency of calcium or vitamin D
- 56. the end part of a long bone initially growing separately from the shaft
- 57. a fracture especially of the skull in which the fragment is depressed below the normal surface
- 58. excessive outward curvature of the spine causing hunching of the back
- 60. painful inflammation and stiffness of the joints
- 61. the skull especially the part enclosing the brain

- 63. slipping movement only no axis around which movement can occur
- 70. a grating sound or sensation produced by friction between bone and cartilage or the fractured parts of a bone
- 71. inflammation of a bursa typically one in the knee elbow or shoulder
- 72. the second cervical vertebra of the spine is named the axis
