Protection: surrounds the brain‚ spinal cord‚ and vital organs. Movement: bones are levers for muscles. Minerals: bones store calcium and phosphate. 2. Compare the axial skeleton with the appendicular skeleton. Axial: forms the long axis of the body and include the bones of the skull‚ vertebral column and the rib cage. Appendicular: consists of the bones of the upper and lower limbs and shoulders and hip bones. 3. How are bones classified? Provide examples. They are classified by their shape:

Project 1.2.3: Bone Detectives Introduction When we think of bones‚ we most often think of the way in which these hard structures support the body‚ how they work with muscles to produce movement and how they protect our internal organs. But the 206 bones of the human skeleton can also tell a story. The specific structure of your bones reveals information about your gender‚ your height‚ your age and even your ethnicity. These biological clues are often the first pieces of evidence scientists

composition of bone mostly consist of inorganic material and collagen fibers. The macroscopic structures of bone is Compact bone‚ Cancellous bone‚ Epiphysis‚ Diaphysis‚ Periosteum‚ Red bone marrow‚ yellow bone marrow‚ and the articular cartilage (Doitpoms.com). Collagen is a triple helix structured protein that is the most prominent protein in the skeletal system. Bones consist of two distinct types of bone tissue such as cancellous and cortical bone. Cancellous bone is also known as spongy bone and is located

Bones support‚ move‚ and protect the body; they also give us our features. But without bone cells we would have no bones. Bone cells are the living units that make up your bones and keep them functioning. Bone cells have two major roles‚ which are the production of new bones and resorption or destruction of old bone. They also carry out other small roles. There are four main types of bone cells: Osteogenic‚ which are bone cells that respond to traumas‚ osteoblasts‚ which form bone matrix around themselves

D – “Don’t let a broken bone get in the way” This ad was a double metaphor which confounded clarity of creative idea and main message. Women did not understand the purpose of the broken tree.

However‚ sometimes‚ the deformities are less noticeable. In these cases‚ a doctor must do a thorough examination of the limb that is being disfigured. Measurements are taken to compare it with the other matching limb. X-rays and bone density analysis tests are sometimes also needed too. Causes

Lab 34-2: 1. The general trend for bone density as a person ages is a steady decline as years pass. This study shows that every decade‚ males and females bone density slowly decreases. 2. Between the ages of 20-50 females lose about 11% of their bone density and males lose about 13% of their bone density. Males do in fact lose more density then females but they lose it at a more stable and steady rate. Females lose less density at more unstable rate going from about 6% (40-50) to about 9%
