The hyoid bone belongs to the

axial skeleton

The clavicle belongs to the

pectoral girdle

In the disease osteoporosis, there is a significant loss of cancellous bone. Explain how the loss of this specific bone material can weaken a bone

It causes weakening in the internal support that the compact bone requires, making the entire bone break.

Be able to label canaliculi, lucana, osteon, central canal, lamella

Ex. 6 lab

The ends of the long bone are known as the

epiphyses

The radius is a part of which skeletal division?

Appendicular

The ribs are a part of which skeletal division?

Axial

What is an osteon?

An osteon is the modular unit of bone

Describe the nature of decalcified bone. What was removed in the process of decalcification, and what impact did this have on the structure?

Decalcified bone that has been placed in an acid and had the calcium salts removed. This weakens the bone and makes it rubbery.

Fill in the major bones or bony regions of the body (carpals, clavicle, hip bone, HUMERUS, phalanges)

Ex. 6 pg 77

The eyebrows are superficial to what bone?

Frontal Bone

What is the common name for the zygomatic bone?

Cheek bone

What occupies the depression in the sella turcica?

Pituitary gland

What are the names of the bones that surround the anterior opening of the nose?

Nasal bones and maxillae

In what bone would you find the foramen magnum?

Occipital bone

Label the following terms of the jaw




Angle, body, condylar process, ramus, etc

Ex. 7

Why would a fractured maxilla create more problems, in terms of bone healing, than a fractured femur?

Maxilla is thin and around a space, so it's hard. You're also using your maxilla to eat. A fracture in the femur is easier to set because it is a thicker bone.

List all the fontanels in the fetal skull

Anterior, posterior, anterolateral, and posterolateral

Which one of the fontanels is the most dorsal?

Posterior fontanel

What structures make up the vertebral arch?

Pedicles and laminae

Which spinal curvature is the most superior one?

Cervical Curvature

On what vertebra would you find the odontoid process?

Axis (C2)

Which vertebra has no body?

Atlas

How many lumbar vertebrae are in the human body?

5

What is the joint between the sacrum and the hip bones called?

Sacroiliac joint

Which rib by number are the floating ribs?

11 & 12

What part of the rib articulates with the transverse process of vertebra?

The tubercle

The most inferior portion of the sternum is the

Xiphoid

The most superior part of the sternum is the

manubrium

Match the vertebrae from a region with the features or structures found there


Cervical a. ala


Coccyx b. vertebrae with the largest vertebral bodies


Lumbar c. vertebrae with rib facets


Sacral d. typically four fused vertebrae


Thoracic e. Transverse foramina



cervical (e)


coccyx (c)


Lumbar (b)


Sacral (a)


Thoracic (d)

The humerus fits into what specific part of the scapula?

Glenoid Cavity

What part of the clavicle attaches to the scapula?

Acromial end

The clavicle is broken when the arms are extended to brace a fall. Explain how hitting the ground with your hands can break the clavicle

The force from the fall will effect the wrist and forearm, then the pressure will keep going until it hits the thin clavicle bone which will break it.

The epiphyseal line on the humerus has what other name?

Anatomical neck

Name the depression in the ulna into which the humerus inserts

Trochlear Notch

Each metacarpal bone consists of three major regions. What are they?

head, body, base

Name the carpal bone at the base of the thumb

Trapezium

Name the roughened line that runs along the length of the posterior femur

Linea Aspera
