Across
  1. 3. / needed to make calcium phosphate and calcium carbonate, which form the Hydroxyapatite crystal that gives bone its hardness
  2. 6. / and disease that disrupts the replacement of old bone tissue with new bone tissue
  3. 7. / osteocytes are within chambers called
  4. 8. / supports bone materialization; May have synergistic effects with vitamin D
  5. 10. / growth ___ increases length of long bones, enhances materialization, and improves bone density
  6. 13. / complex shape
  7. 14. / immature bond cells
  8. 18. / important for fat
  9. 19. / thin and curved
  10. 20. / cube-like shape equal in shape width, thickness
  11. 21. / a way bone adapt by building more bone and becoming denser improves balance and coordination
  12. 24. / a condition in which bones become weak and brittle
  13. 25. / a hallow cylindrical space within the diaphysis, contains yellow bone marrow with blood vessels reduce the weight maximizes strength
  14. 27. / needed for calcium absorption
  15. 28. / distal and proximal ends of the long bone
  16. 29. / mature bond cells
Down
  1. 1. / thin layer of hyaline cartilage- absorbs shock at the joint
  2. 2. / stimulates absorption of calcium and phosphate from digestive track
  3. 4. / between the diaphysis and the epiphyses
  4. 5. / the The structure that connects osteocytes
  5. 7. / osteocytes form rings called
  6. 9. / bone cells that liquefy bone matrix and release calcium to the blood are called
  7. 11. / inhibits osteoclast activity in stimulates calcium uptake by bones
  8. 12. / bone lost due to menopause
  9. 15. / thin membrane that lines the medullary cavity, contains bone forming cells
  10. 16. / produces blood cells
  11. 17. / thin connective tissue shealth associated with the blood vessels
  12. 22. / small and round, embedded in tendons
  13. 23. / longer than it is wide, cylinder-like shape
  14. 26. / main shaft or body of bone long, cylindrical shape
