Match the following bone regions with their descriptions:

Epiphysis = The middle region, consisting of cortical bone and a medullary canal Metaphysis = The region between epiphysis and diaphysis Diaphysis = The terminal region filled with red marrow None of the above = A region that does not exist in bones

Match the following types of cartilage with their characteristics:

Hyaline = Soft and flexible Elastic = Provides elasticity to the cartilage Fibrocartilage = Found in intervertebral discs and pubic symphysis Chondrin = The protein that makes up the cartilage matrix

Match the following features with the correct type of joint:

Immovable = Fibrous joints Partially movable = Cartilaginous joints Freely movable = Synovial joints Held together by muscles = None of the above

Match the following functions with the correct tissue type:

Provides protection and support = Bone Protects joints = Cartilage Forms blood cells = Bone Provides elasticity = Cartilage Signup and view all the answers

Match the following types of synovial joints with their descriptions:

Ball and socket = Allows movement in multiple directions Hinge = Allows movement in one plane Pivot = Allows rotational movement Gliding = Allows movement in multiple directions, but with limited range Signup and view all the answers

Match the types of fractures with their descriptions:

Simple fractures = damage surrounding structures such as organs, veins, or nerves Compound fractures = cracked bones without breaking the skin Complicated fractures = damage surrounding structures such as organs, veins, or nerves Signup and view all the answers

Match the stages of repair process of a simple fracture with their descriptions:

Hematoma stage = reshaping of the bone to resemble the original bone Fibrocartilaginous callus formation = formation of a blood clot at the fracture site Bony callus formation = formation of soft tissue mass to stabilize the broken ends of the bone Remodeling stage = calcification of the soft callus into a hard bony callus Signup and view all the answers
