Which bone or portion of bone in the thoracic limb is least stressed by the weight of the animal during the support phase of locomotion? Which of the following is flexible connective tissue that is attached to bones at the joints? Which of the following is the large bone found proximal to the patella and distal to the ischium? What is the difference between compact bone and spongy bone? Which of the following statement is incorrect?

Understand the Problem

The question set is focused on osteology, specifically examining various aspects of bones in relation to organ systems and anatomy. It tests knowledge of bone structure and function, types of connective tissue, and the identification of specific bones in relation to others.

Answer

1. Ulna. 2. Cartilage. 3. Femur. 4. Different bone cell arrangement.
  1. Ulna is least stressed. 2. Cartilage is flexible connective tissue. 3. Femur is proximal to the patella, distal to the ischium. 4. The difference is in the arrangement of bone cells.
Answer for screen readers
  1. Ulna is least stressed. 2. Cartilage is flexible connective tissue. 3. Femur is proximal to the patella, distal to the ischium. 4. The difference is in the arrangement of bone cells.

More Information

The ulna is less involved in weight-bearing in the thoracic limb. Cartilage provides flexibility and cushioning at joints. The femur is the major bone of the thigh, positioned as described. Compact and spongy bones differ in structural arrangement.

Tips

For the bone stress question, remember weight distribution and function during movement.
