Across
- 4. or Linear bone break incomplete break parallel to the bone and often caused by bones pushing against other bones
- 5. connective tissues which connect muscles to bones at a joint (When the muscle contracts,the tendon pulls the bone in the direction of the contraction.)
- 7. bone structure which has an animal walking on its toes and not placing weight on the heels of the foot (e.g., cat, dog and walking birds)
- 9. bone break complete break at multiple points; also known as “shattered”
- 10. strong band of connective tissue which connect bone to other bone at joint
- 12. teeth in the back of the mouth, specifically used for grinding
- 13. an animal which stands on four feet; includes cattle, sheep, dogs, cats and the majority of animal species
- 14. an animal which stands on two feet; includes the kangaroo, the human and almost all bird species
- 15. Plates cartilage that allows long bones to grow in length; also known as growthplates; plates harden after puberty and eventually turn into solid bone
- 17. end portion or end portions of a long bone
- 19. break due to the twisting of the shaft of the bone; bone can be broken anywhere and break can lead to oblique, comminuted or fissured breaks, as well
- 21. front teeth on the upper and lower jaw
- 26. bone structure of an animal that walks on soles of its feet (e.g., human and bear)
- 27. complete break at a diagonal to the bone, when the bone does not shift apart
- 28. the soft spot in the top of the skull; the location of un-calcified bone at birth
- 29. bone break incomplete break caused by bending of the bone in an arc shape; a break most commonly found in long bones
Down
- 1. main section of a long bone
- 2. non-permanent teeth
- 3. an animal which does not possess a backbone
- 5. complete break across the bone and perpendicular to the bone
- 6. bone that breaks at any point but does not pierce the skin
- 8. complete break at a diagonal to the bone, when the bone shifts apart; oblique breaks often lead to compound fractures but can be simple, as well
- 11. bone break bone which breaks all the way through
- 16. framework of bone, cartilage and other non-bending materials in a body
- 18. bone break break that occurs only a portion of the way through the bone
- 20. teeth that will remain for the majority of the life of the animal
- 22. soft, shock absorbing substance which covers the ends of bones and reduces bone-on-bone injury; also, connective tissue that calcifies and becomes bone with age
- 23. bone break bone which breaks and pierces the skin
- 24. a type of locomotion or gait in which only the tips of the digits touch the ground and remainder of the foot is off the ground; the gait of ungulates, like horses and cows (Odd-toed examples: horses and rhinos; even-toed examples: cattle, pigs and deer)
- 25. location where two bones meet
