What is the primary cause of rickets in children?

What is the condition characterized by bone tissue loss, weakening bones, and increased risk of fractures?

What is the name for the series of steps in healing that bone fractures go through?

What do bone markings include, each serving specific functions related to joint formation, tendon and ligament attachment, blood vessel and nerve passage, and air pockets within bones?

Chondrocytes in cartilage only undergo mitotic division during embryonic development

Spongy bone is dense and heavy, with a solid network of osteons

The adult skeleton consists of 206 bones, categorized into long, short, flat, irregular, and round bones based on their sizes

Compact bone contains a lattice-like network of trabeculae and osteocytes in lacunae

Osteogenic, osteoblasts, osteocytes, and osteoclasts are responsible for bone maintenance and resorption

Hyaline, fibrocartilage, and elastic cartilage have the same characteristics and locations in the body

The bone matrix is composed of collagen fibers and inorganic salt crystals, providing hardness, strength, and flexibility to bones

Endosteum is essential for bone growth, repair, and remodeling

The gross anatomy of a long bone includes the epiphysis, metaphysis, and diaphysis

Hemopoiesis occurs in the bone marrow, providing the formation of blood cells

True or false: Bones can only grow in length through interstitial growth, and not in width through appositional growth.

True or false: Osteoporosis is characterized by bone tissue gain and decreased risk of fractures.

True or false: Rickets is a bone disease caused by vitamin D deficiency and is characterized by bowed legs, stunted growth, and bone pain.

True or false: Achondroplasia is a condition of abnormal intramembranous ossification, leading to short-limbed dwarfism.

True or false: Bone remodeling is a static process with consistent rates of formation and resorption throughout life.

True or false: Acromegaly, caused by excessive growth hormone production, leads to the abnormal growth of long bones in adulthood.

True or false: Endochondral ossification produces most cranial bones and clavicles.

True or false: Intramembranous ossification produces bones at the base of the skull and long bones.

True or false: Bone fractures go through a series of healing steps including the formation of a fracture hematoma, a fibrocartilaginous callus, a bony callus, and bone remodeling.

True or false: Bone markings include articulating surfaces, elevations, depressions, and openings, each serving specific functions related to joint formation, tendon and ligament attachment, blood vessel and nerve passage, and air pockets within bones.

True or false: The axial skeleton includes all bones of the upper and lower limbs.

True or false: Cartilage is a dense regular connective tissue.

True or false: Bone is composed of a semi-rigid extracellular matrix.

True or false: Chondrocytes produce extracellular matrix which is solid.

True or false: Osteocytes are avascular cells found in cartilage.

True or false: The growth of cartilage occurs in only one type: interstitial.

True or false: The skeletal system does not store and release minerals and fat.

True or false: Ligaments are composed of solid supportive connective tissue.

True or false: The adult skeleton consists of 206 bones, categorized into long, short, flat, irregular, and round bones based on their sizes.

True or false: Bone fractures go through a series of healing steps including the formation of a fracture hematoma, a fibrocartilaginous callus, a bony callus, and bone resorption.

Cartilage is composed of solid extracellular matrix and is vascular.

The axial skeleton includes all bones of the upper and lower limbs.

The growth of cartilage occurs only along the outside edge (appositional).

Chondrocytes are locked inside spaces called lacunae during the production of extracellular matrix.

The skeletal system does not play a role in the production of blood cells.

The bone tissue is composed of osteons and central canals.

The function of ligaments is to provide support for soft tissues and articulations.

The skeletal system does not store and release minerals and fat.

The appendicular skeleton includes all bones of the head, neck, chest, and back.

The function of the skeletal system is limited to supporting the body and facilitating movement.
