5. Which ossification method would form a femur? The femur, which is a long bone, is formed by endochondral ossification which is the replacement of cartilage by osseous tissue. Most bones of the body are formed by this process. 6.
Krystena Vierra July 25, 2014 A&p Unit 4 1. Which minerals are stored in the bones? a. Calcium and Phosphorus are minerals that are stored in the bone. 2. Which type of bone provides a large, flat surface for muscle to attachment?
In the periosteum it surrounds the bone surface wherever it is not covered by articular cartilage, it is a sheath of dense irregular connective tissue containing osteoblasts, it functions to protect the bone, assists in fracture repair, nourishes bone tissue, and serves as an attachment point for ligaments and tendons. 4- Which kind of bone marrow is in spongy bone tissue? Red bone marrow is the type of marrow found in spongy bone tissue. 5- Which ossification method would form a femur? Endochondrial ossification would form the femur.
Definition: Bones are rigid organs that constitute part of the endoskeleton of vertebrates. They support and protect the various organs of the body, produce red and white blood cells and store minerals. Bone tissue is a type of dense connective tissue. Bones come in a variety of shapes and have a complex internal and external structure, are lightweight yet strong and hard, and serve multiple functions. One of the types of tissue that makes up bone is the mineralized osseous tissue, also called bone tissue, that gives it rigidity and a coral-like three-dimensional internal structure.
also called voluntary muscles, are the muscles that attach to bones that we consciously move. 50 Striations-alternating light and dark bands recognizable on skeletal muscles 51 Muscle Sense-the brain's ability to sense where the muscles are and what they are performing during movement 52 Stretch Receptors-work in conjunction with the sensory receptors, also referred to as proprioceptors. Senses the changes in the length of a muscle as it stretches. 53 Origin-end of the skeletal muscle attached to the immovable part of the bone 54 Insertion-end of the muscle attached to the movable part of the bone 55 Prime Mover-a muscle that does most of the work during movement 56 Synergist-muscles that contract and assist the prime mover 57 Antagonists-muscles that resist the prime mover's action and work to cause action in the opposite direction 58 Tendons-composed of parallel fibers kept together by a connective tissue sheath 59 Myosin-thick filament that makes up approximately one half of the proteins that occur in muscle
Flat bones are generally thin and provides extensive surfaces for muscles attachment. Flat bones: scapula, cranial , the sternum and the ribs 3. Describe the location, composition, and function of the epiphyseal plate. Epiphyseal plate is located in the metaphysis and is composed of the hyaline cartilage and its function allows for bones to grow in length. 4.
What is the path a nutrient would travel through compact bone tissue from its diffusion out of a blood vessel in the periosteum to an osteocyte located within the second osteon in from the surface of the bone? a. Nutrients travel through a nutrient artery, which enters through a nutrient forameth. This nutrient forameth enters from the center of the diaphysis and travels to the medullary cavity, splitting into a proximal and distal branch that supplies the inner part of the compact bone tissue, spongy bone tissue and red bone marrow; as far as the epiphyseal plate. The nutrient artery exits in the diaphysis. 3.
Assignment 3:Neuroanatomy Project Physiological Psychology | PSY350 A03 Name: Instructor: Date: The CNS or central nervous system is the foundation of our existence. It controls many interact details that make us unique. Such as our personalities, senses, movements, as well as other functions like heart beat, breathing, and blood pressure. The CNS is encased in bone just as the brain is encased in skull and the spinal cord is encased in the vertebral column. The vertebral column is a structure of bone that is located in the back that encases the spinal cord from top to bottom in order to protect it from injury.
Skeletal System: The skeleton of animals is generally split into two parts, the axial and appendicular skeletons. The axial skeleton lies on the axis of the body of the animal. This part of the skeleton contains bones such as the ribs, vertebral column, and the skull. The axial skeleton provides the basic structure of the body as well as protects vital organs and support the body. The appendicular skeleton contributes more to the appendages of the animal.
Provides skeletal support. * b. In most vertebrates, it’s replaced by a jointed skeleton. * c. Remains of the notochord exist as disks between the vertebrae. 2.
