stand. She was taken to the emergency room where an X ray showed that the neck of her femur was fractured. More detailed X ray images revealed reduced bone mass in the head and neck regions of the injured femur‚ in the ends of other long bones of the body and in the vertebrae. Surgery was necessary to repair the fractured femur and a biopsy of the bone tissue indicated that the composition of the osteoid was normal. Healing of the fractured femur is proceeding slowly. 1.

Premium Bone
1. The skeletal system is involved. 2. Bone tissue is the primary type involved 3. Connective tissue is the specific type of tissue involved 4. Osteoblasts are the specific types of cells that produce the normal microanatomy of the tissue. 5a. With ageing‚ bone mass decreases. This is espeically true of women following menopuase. Estrogen acts as a protector of bone by inhibiting the activity of osteoclasts. Once estrogen levels drop‚ after menopause‚ osteoclast activity increases. 5b.

Skeletal System Study Guide – Use the lecture folder to help you answer these questions. The more detail you add‚ the better prepared for the test you will be. 1. What are the functions of the skeleton? • Support • Movement • Protection • Mineral storage • Blood cell synthesis 2. What is the difference between osteoclasts and osteoblasts? Osteoclasts cause the bone tissue to break down and release calcium into the blood stream. When the calcium

The Skeletal System Caleb Cornelious The skeletal system is one of the most important systems in the human anatomy. Without this system our bodies wouldn’t have any source of motion or movement. From the skull all the way to the toes of our feet‚ everything is important. Out of the 206 bones‚ they all form our different shapes and make us all unique. They create our frame work and enables us the move and perform our different activities during our everyday life. Another thing that the skeletal system

The Skeletal System provides us with many important functions. It provides us with the shape and form for our bodies as well as supporting‚ protecting‚ allowing our body to move freely‚ producing blood for the body‚ and storing minerals. The Skeletal System is the system of our body that gives our body its physical shape and with the help of the Muscular System it keeps us moving and makes us able to do tasks that we don’t think about like raising our leg to kick a football or using our legs to boost
