What causes osteoporosis?

Bones are constantly undergoing resorption for various reasons. Which of the following cells accomplishes this process?

Which description of bone cells is INCORRECT?

What kind of tissue is the forerunner of long bones in the embryo?

Alice and James adopted a 3-year-old child from a developing country. They noticed that her legs were bowed and there were some deformities in her cranial and pelvic bones. They brought her to a physician for a diagnosis. What was the diagnosis, and what was the treatment for the disorder?

Flat bones consist of compact bone sandwiched between spongy bone.

The process of bones increasing in width is known as ________.

Wolff's law is concerned with ________.

The periosteum is secured to the underlying bone by dense connective tissue called ________.

What is endochondral ossification?

The osteon is ________.

The cell responsible for secreting the matrix of bone is the ________.

Mrs. Mulligan goes to her dentist and, after having a couple of cavities filled, her dentist strongly suggests that she reduce her intake of sodas and increase her intake of calcium phosphates in the foods she eats. Why?

Greenstick fracture

comminuted fracture

spiral

The epiphyseal plate is ________.

Osteoclasts ________.

Hematopoiesis is a term for which of the following physiological processes?

osteoporosis

osteomalacia

Paget's disease

Which bone cells form bone?

Normal bone formation and growth are dependent on the adequate intake of ________.

What tissue forms the model for endochondral ossification?

Which of the following is the single most important stimulus for epiphyseal plate activity during infancy and childhood?

The notable hardness of bone is attributed to ________.

The correct order (from start to finish) of fracture repair is ________.

Choose the TRUE statement. Endochondral ossification leads to the formation of the clavicles and cranial bones. Most bones in the body are formed by intramembranous ossification. Endochondral ossification occurs within fibrous connective tissue membranes. Endochondral ossification converts hyaline cartilage "bone" models into true bones (i.e., hyaline cartilage serves as a template for bone formation).

Which of the following is a bone projection?

The illustrated bone-forming process would be associated with which of the following bones?

How can a tooth be moved in a bony socket during orthodontic treatment?

Growth of bones is controlled by a symphony of hormones. Which hormone is of greatest importance for bone growth during infancy and childhood?

endosteum

osteoclasts

lamellae

canaliculi

osteoblasts

Which of the following is UNLIKELY to affect bone remodeling?

Why, or why not, is swimming recommended as an exercise to prevent osteoporosis?

Lengthwise, long bone growth during infancy and youth is exclusively through ________.

Osteomyelitis is ________.

In some cases the epiphyseal plate of the long bones of children closes too early. What might be the cause?

What event precedes the step in the bone-forming process shown in the figure?

Choose the CORRECT pairing. paget's disease: excessive and haphazard bone deposition and resorption osteomalacia: excessive mineralization of the bone rickets: deficiency of vitamin A osteoporosis: increased bone density

The structural unit of cancellous bone tissue is called ________.

Which of the following glands or organs produces hormones that tend to decrease blood calcium levels?

Cartilage grows in two ways, appositional and interstitial. What is appositional growth?

The structure of bone tissue suits the function. Which of the following bone tissues is adapted to support weight and withstand tension stress?

When should prevention of osteoporosis start?

The above figure depicts which of the following bone-forming processes?

The resilience of bone is primarily due to which of the following?

The canal that runs through the core of each osteon (the Haversian canal) is the site of ________.

What is osteoid?

Which of the following statements best describes interstitial growth?

For intramembranous ossification to take place, which of the following is necessary?

The structures in the figure collectively form a structural unit termed a(n) ______.

Yellow bone marrow contains a large percentage of ________.

Ossification of the ends of long bones ________.

During infancy and childhood, the most important stimulus of epiphyseal plate activity is ________.

Osteogenesis is the process of ________.

In the epiphyseal plate, cartilage grows ________.

The term diploë refers to the ________.

Hematopoiesis refers to the formation of blood cells within the red marrow cavities of certain bones.

Which structure allows the diaphysis of the bone to increase in length until early childhood, as well as shaping the articular surfaces?

In adults, yellow marrow is located ________.

Choose the FALSE statement. The sternum is an example of a flat bone. Irregular bones include the vertebrae and hip bones. Sesamoid bones form within certain tendons. Long bones include all limb bones except the patella
