  • Front
  • Back

This is the most abundant skeletal cartilage in the human body

Hyaline cartilage

The articular disks or menisci are these types of cartilages

Fibrocartilage

These bone cells originate from the osteoprogenitor cells except

Osteoclasts

These are little hollow areas where osteocytes are located

Lacunae

Red bone marrow is located in the following adult bone cavities except

Medullary cavity of femur

These bones are formed by intramembranous ossification

Sacrum

This hormone is responsible for proportionate skeletal growth

Thyroid hormone

This part of the long bone is the remnant of the epiphyseal plate

Epiphyseal line

Sequence of fracture repair

1. Hematoma formation


2. Fibrocartilaginous callus formation


3. Bony callus formation


4. Remodeling of bony callus

This bone disease is characterized by excessive bone deposition and resorption

Paget's disease

These are true about the skeleton except

They are joined together by tendons

This is the only craniofacial bone that is not joined by sutures

Mandible

Which of these bones doesn't belong in the appendicular skeleton

Axis

The glabella is found in this cranial bone

Frontal

This suture joins the temporal and parietal bones

Squamous

This cranial bone contains a large opening through which the brain connects to the spinal cord

Occipital

This part of the occipital bone articulates with the superior articular facet of the axis

Occipital crest

This part of temporal bone is adjacent to the middle ear cavity and prone to infections

Mastoid process

This part of the sphenoid bone houses the pituitary gland

Sella turcica

This is the only bone that does not articulate directly with any other bones and acts as a movable base for the tongue

Hyoid bone

These are true characteristics of the spinal column except

Thoracic and sacral curvatures are convex anteriorly

It is an abnormal spinal curvatures that may be physiologic, found in pregnant women

Lordosis

This part of the intervertebral disc is the one herniating on a "slipped disc"

Nucleus pulposus

These are vertebrae that have kidney shaped bodies, triangular vertebral foramen

Lumbar vertebrae

This movement of the thoracic vertebrae is not limited

Lateral flexion

This part of the sternum articulates with the clavicles

Manubrium

The greater sciatic notch is located in which pelvic bone

Ilium

This bone of the appendicular skeleton is one of the easily fractured due to its location, is also homologue of the wishbone or furcula

Clavicle

This belongs to the carpus or wrist except

Calcaneus

Functional classification of joints include the following except

Syndesmoses

These types of fibrous joints except

Temporomandibular joint

This is the only persisting adult type of synchondroses

Epiphyseal plate

These are distinguishing features of a synovial joint, except

Articular disks

This is the most important factor stabilizing the synovial joints

Muscle tone

This is a type of pivot joint

Atlanto-axial joint

This acts as restraining straps to help anterior-posterior displacement of the knees

Cruciate ligaments

This type of joints involves a spherical or hemispherical structure that articulates with a cuplike structure

Ball-in-socket joint

The rotator cuff is consisting of the tendons of these muscles except

Teres major

Ankle joint (movement)

Plantar flexion

Elbow joint (movement)

Pronation

Thumb and finger (movement)

Opposition

Foot distal to the ankle joint (movement)

Inversion

Mandible (movement)

Depression
