  2. 8. occurs straight across the long axis of the bone
  3. 13. structure that connects osteocytes
  4. 14. disease caused by decrease in bone mass
  5. 16. osteoblasts that have calcified and maintains mineral concentration
  6. 17. when a break is driven into another
  7. 20. a fracture where the broken bone tears through the skin
  8. 21. opening in bone that allows blood vessels to enter bone
  9. 22. partial fracture where only one side is affected
Down
  1. 1. bone segments are pulled apart as result of twisting motion
  2. 2. sunlight, fatty fish, and calcium are sources of
  3. 3. Produced by pituitary gland

  10. 12. a basic function of the skeletal system
  11. 15. brittle bones disease
  12. 18. comes from diet
