206, with the exception of the tail bone which can have 3-5 bones.
bone is ___and___tissue
active and dynamic it is constantly growing in responce to
calcium levels in the blood

synovial joint structure...
space between joints
ramus p or d
p
flat bones
thin
flattened
layer of spongy bone sandwhiched between compact bones
when calcium levels are low..
the parathyroid gland activates the osteoclasts(destroy bones so that you'll have calcium)
inside joints
