In a bird, the pelvic girdle acts as a point of attachment for the tail, legs, and many muscles. Like that of a human, a bird’s pelvic bones, the ischium, pubis, ilium, and sacrum, have all fused together in order to make a pelvic girdle, although the pelvic girdle of a bird also contains some of the caudal vertebrae. The sacrum and six of the caudal vertebrae of birds fuse together to…

Intramembranous bone formation, also known as ossification, is how flat bones develop from mesenchyme tissue. In this method of bone formation, there are four major steps in the developing process. In the first step, the ossification center forms by osteoblasts. These osteoblasts are created from stem cells within the mesenchyme that specialize. In the second step the osteoblasts from the ossification center produce proteins make up the osteoid. After the osteoid if formed it will combine with…

will be talking about the human muscles and skeleton. The human muscles is a very interesting topic because of the ways the muscles control your body is amazing, the skeleton is also good but it’s scary as well because in one move and you can break a bone and it is extremely painful. I hope you enjoy reading my essay and hopefully I am able to provide you with information about your body that you didn’t know about. The human skeleton is a very interesting part of your body. It serves as…

Bone pathology involves understanding the causes and effects of bone diseases. Bones undergo a continual process of breakdown and renewal to maintain maximum bone strength. Healthy bones provide support and durability. Skeletal diseases of bone are often contributed to the severities of low bone density, mass, or deterred bone tissue. Osteoporosis is one of many bone diseases. Osteoporosis occurs when the formation of new bone doesn’t keep up with the elimination of old bone. It’s a…

Osteoporosis is a disease of the bones. The word osteoporosis means “porous bone.” It is a metabolic bone disorder which means that the rate of bone breakdown, which is called resorption, speeds up while the rate of bone formation slows down causing a loss of bone mass. In other words, osteoporosis happens when you lose too much bone, make too little bone, or even both. As a result of losing bone mass, your bones become weak and may break from a minor fall. For example, your bones may break due…

consisting of two hundred and six bones, works to provide support, protection, and movement. Many can argue that the skeletal system is the most important system due to it’s complex framework of long bones, short bones, flat bones, etc… but sometimes, the skeletal system may not be able to perform to its fullest potential. A simple bone disorder can cause a large amount of chaos externally, as well as internally. Fibrous dysplasia, for instance, can weaken bones and eventually cause a fracture.…

all go hand in hand. A joint is defined by two or more bones that meet. However, with the use of fibrous connective tissue, ligaments allow the joints to be held together. Ligaments are what prevent us from moving in an undesirable plane, another purpose they serve is that they limit the range or extent of normal movement (Wallace 2013). Unlike ligaments where the bone might be attached to another, tendons are fibrous tissue connecting the bones to the surrounding muscle. With this in mind,…

As sports keep growing on the degree of popularity, bone fractures happen with an increasing frequency; there are six of the most major and the most common types of fractures. The first type of the six majors is called a Simple or a Closed Fracture. As defined by Robert, a Simple Fracture is, “a break in the bone that may be complete or incomplete, but it doesn’t pierce the skin” (Robert 307). This type of fracture on the average side, since it depends on the type of accident in a sport for a…

tibia, and the second with or between the femur and patella, or knee cap. The knee is made up of four bones; the femur, tibia, fibula, and the patella. These four bones give the knee stability, strength, and flexibility. The femur is the single bone of the thigh, it the largest and longest and strongest…

the cavity. The sponge absorbs the blood and helps to retain the clot formed. This helps in bone healing and regeneration of bone. In the third Group C of 7 patients autogenous tooth bone graft (AutoBT) was used to fill the cavity. Patient’s third molar tooth is extracted and sent to tooth bank to get it grinded in granule form of 400- 800µm. Sterilization of the material is done. After enucleation and curettage this granular form AutoBT is filled in the cavity and then gingival flap is…
