- 40. the highly specialized connective tissue of diarthodial joints
- 44. joins bones with a fibrous joint capsule that is continuous with the periosteum of the joined bones

- 49. an unfilled space or interval
- 50. excessive inward curvature
- 51. collapse of a vertebra

- 56. break or splinter of the bone into more than two fragments
- 59. excessive outward curvature of the spine, causing the hunch back
- 60. the skull, especially the part enclosing the brain
- 61. 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
- 62. used to attach muscle to the periosteum of bone by merging with the fibrous periosteum
- 63. articulation that permits free movement
- 64. immovable fixed joints between bones connected by fibrous tissue
- 65. bones which, from their peculiar form, cannot be grouped as long bone, short bone, flat bone or sesamoid bone
- 66. any of the minute tubes that form a network in bone and contain blood vessels
- 67. disturbance from a proper, original, or usual place or state
- 68. natural process of bone formation
Down
- 1. fluid filled sac or saclike cavity

- 5. bone marrow characterized by meshes of the reticular network that contain the developmental stages of red blood cells, white blood cells and megakaryocytes
- 6. a small channel or duct
- 9. second cervical vertebra
- 11. these joints have no joint cavity and are connected via fibrous connective tissue
- 14. a dense layer of vascular connective tissue enveloping the bones except at the surfaces of the joints
- 16. a large multinucleate bone cell that absorbs bone tissue during growth and healing
- 17. the bones surrounding the mouth and nose and contributing to the orbits
- 18. a condition in which the annulus fibrous of the vertebral disc is torn
- 19. ventrally concave curve of the fetal vertebral column
- 21. bone marrow that is yellow with fat
- 27. the portion of the skeleton of vertebrates consisting of the bones or cartilage that support the appendages
- 29. a cell that secretes the matrix for bone formation
- 32. having or relating to two axes
- 34. saddle-shaped articular surfaces that are convex in one direction and concave in another and that permit movements in all directions except axial rotation

- 36. the production of blood cells and platelets, which occurs in the bone marrow
- 37. ventrally convex curve of the vertebral column
- 39. a natural or manufactured joint or coupling, such as the hip joint, in which a partially spherical end lies in a socket, allowing multidirectional movement and rotation
- 41. bone fracture occurring when torque (a rotating force) is applied along the axis of a bone
- 42. a fracture especially of the skull in which the fragment is depressed below the normal surface
- 43. the central cavity of bone shafts where red bone marrow and yellow bone marrow
- 45. state of being jointed
- 48. characteristics on the surface of the axial and appendicular bones that indicate attachments, articulations or openings for nerves and blood vessels
- 52. hard, dense bone that provides strength, structure, and mobility
- 53. a type of articulation between bony surfaces that permits limited motion and is connected by ligaments or elastic cartilage
