Bone is composed of:
|
2/3 mineral components that make bone stiff
1/3 organic material that make bone elastic |
|
How do bones grow?
what is the center cavity called? |
Bones grow from the middle outward and the center cavity is called the medullary cavity
|
|
Epiphysis
|
Long end of the bone separated from the main shaft by cartilage.
|
|
Diaphysis

|
-Synarthroses (synarthroidial) or immovable joints.
-amphiarthroses (slightly movable. -Diarthroses (freely movable) |
|
Give the subcategories of synarthrodial joints
|
syndemoses (partly movable fibrous joints)
-interosseous ligaments between bones of the tibia and fibula or radius and ulna. |

Synarthroses are under what large category?
|
ligaments
|
|
synarthroses are those in which the articulating bones are connected by ( )

|
What are some purposes of the axial skeleton?
|
-Support skull
-Shock absorber -transmitts weight throughout vertebral bodies -permits movement in all directions. |
