Skeleton Review
Across
- 3. one fragment is drive into other, usually as a result of compression
- 4. long bone
- 9. semoid bone
- 10. flat bone
- 14. the body constantly absorbs and And replaces bone tissue
- 16. promotes osteoblasts activity and the synthesis of bone matrix
- 17. several breaks results in many small pieces between 2 larger segments
- 18. occurs straight across the long axis of the bone
- 20. occurs at a angle that is 90 degrees
Down
- 1. basic structural framework for body
- 2. irregular bone
- 5. a fracture in which the skin remains intact
- 6. stimulates the absorption of calcium and phosphate from the digestive tact
- 7. long bone
- 8. a partial fracture where only one side of the bone is fractured
- 11. disease occurs in the pelvis, skull, spine and legs
- 12. protects the most important organs from injury
- 13. hormone Increases calcium retention which enhances mineralization and stimulates osteoblastic activity which improves bone density
- 15. a fracture where at least one end of the broken bone tears through the skin, high risk of infection
- 19. bone segment are pulled apart as result of twisting motion
