- 10. enlarged ends of long bones
- 12. cavity space within the bone filled with marrow
- 15. fracture bone does not break through the skin
- 16. joining point of epiphysis and diaphysis
- 17. framework of structures that support and protect the body
- 18. fracture bone shatters into many pieces

- 23. bone complex and irregularly shaped bone, i.e. vertebrae
Down
- 1. bone bone longer than it is wide, i.e. humerus, radius, and femur
