Skeletal System

4. process where adult bone can change in density, strength, and sometimes shape
6. a Haversian system
10. major passageways running in the direction of the length of long bones, providing paths for blood vessels
11. process of bone formation
12. stronger bones
16. interior spongy bone with a porous, honeycomb structure
17. central hollow in the long bones
18. material with a rich blood supply found within the marrow cavity of long bones
19. weaker bones
20. build bone tissue

1. change in diameter
2. large canals that connect the Haversian canals
3. includes canals, canaliculi, lacunae, forming transportation matrix to supply blood and remove waste
5. tiny cavities around Haversian canals
7. surrounds and protects the shaft of long bones
8. the shaft of the long bone
9. the bulbous end of the long bone
13. mature bone cells
