  1. 2. Type of vertebrae in the neck; majority of mammals all have seven.
  2. 4. Type of bones that form long bones from hyaline cartilage; has growth plates.
  3. 6. The long bone in the upper arm.
  4. 7. Bone in the skull that houses the external acoustic meatus (the ear canal).
  5. 8. The short bone commonly called the "kneecap."
  6. 11. Type of cartilage found where bones meet (in joints).
  7. 15. Bone forming cell.
  8. 16. Longest bone in the body.
  9. 17. The forehead bone; very superficial, houses paranasal sinuses.
  10. 21. Vascular, fibrous membrane of a long bone, found around diaphysis.
  11. 22. Type of girdle in the hip, made of two bones, allows the attachment of lower appendages.
  12. 24. Blood cell formation.
  13. 26. Expanded/head portion of a long bone; made of spongy bone.
  14. 28. Soft spots in the intramembranous bones of an infant skull; allows for head to be more flexible during exit from birth canal.
  15. 30. The superficial breastbone and center of thoracic cage.

Down
  1. 1. Hollow cavities in cranial bones that make the skull more lightweight and helps resonate voice.
  2. 3. Cylindrical bones that make up the fingers and toes.
  3. 5. My favorite history teacher that gets the majority brunt of my jokes.
  4. 9. Types of bone include: long, flat, irregular, and (?).
  5. 10. Most freely moveable joint - consists of a rounded bone end that articulates with a cup-shaped socket.
  6. 12. Childhood disease where bones fail to calcify, causing legs to bow.
  7. 13. The type of calcium salt found in bone matrix that provides rigidity.
  8. 14. Type of girdle in the shoulder, made of four bones, allows attachment of upper appendages.
  9. 18. Bone resorbing cell (breaks bone down).
  10. 19. Sight of blood cell formation; found in spongy bone.
  11. 20. Types of bones that form in the skull; formed from broad, flat sheets of fibrous connective tissue.
  12. 23. Larger of the two bones in the lower leg.
  13. 25. Hollow shaft of a long bone; made of cortical bone.
  14. 27. Tiny, hollow cavities that bone cells reside in.
  15. 29. A cylindrical unit of mature bone that houses a Haversian Canal where blood run.
