Down: 1) Tubular shaft that runs between the proximal & distal ends of a Long Bone3) Process by which bone forms directly from mesenchymal tissue4) Region of bone development in the epiphyses6) (Singular = Lacuna) Spaces in a bone that houses an osteocyte8) Collar of hyaline cartilage & bone that forms around the outside of a fracture9) Cube-shaped bone that is approximately equal in length, width, & thickness; provides limited motion11) (Singular = Canaliculus) Channels within the Bone Matrix that house one of the Osteocyte's many Cytoplasmic Extensions that is uses to communicate & receive nutrients12) Thin & curved bone; serves as a point of attachment for muscles & protects internal organs14) Surgical exposure of a bone to reset a fracture15) Completely ossified remnant of a Bone's Medullary Cavity17) Doctor who specializes in diagnosing & treating musculoskeletal disorders & injuries21) Cylinder-shaped bone that is longer than it is wide; functions as a lever22) Undifferentiated cell with high mitotic activity; the only bone cells that divide; they differentiate & develop into osteoblasts25) Region of the epiphyseal plate that makes new chondrocytes to replace those that die at the diaphyseal end of the plate & contributes to longitudinal growth of the epiphyseal plate28) (Also, Haversins system) Basic structural unit of compact bone; made of concentric layers of calcified matrix29) Hollow region of the diaphysis; filled with yellow marrow32) Opening or depression in a bone33) Small, round bone embedded in a tendon; protects the tendon from compressive forces35) Connective tissue in the interior cavity of a bone where hematopoiesis takes place Across: 1) Layer of Spongy Bone, that is sandwiched between the two layers of Compact Bone found in Flat Bones2) Wide section at each end of a long bone; filled with spongy bone & red marrow5) Longitudinal channel in the center of each Osteon; contains Blood Vessels, Nerves, & Lymphatic Vessels; also known as the Haversian Canal.7) (Also, growth plate) Sheet of hyaline cartilage in the metaphysis of an immature bone; replaced by bone tissue as the organ grows in length10) Dense Osseous Tissue that can withstand compressive forces13) Uncalcified cell with high mitotic activity; the only bone cells that divide; they differentiate & develop into osteoblasts 16) Bone of complex shape; protects internal organs from compressive forces18) (Singular = Trabecula) Spikes or sections of the lattice-like matrix in Spongy Bone19) Process, during bone growth, by which bone is resorbed on one surface of a bone & deposited on another 20) Cluster of osteoblasts found in the early stages of intramembranous ossification 23) Fibrous membranes covering the outer surface of bone & continuous with ligaments24) (Also, Cancellous Bone) Trabeculated osseous tissue that supports shifts in weight distribution26) Condition characterized by abnormally high levels of calcium27) Hard, Dense Connective Tissue that forms the Structural Elements of the Skeleton30) Vitamin D is required for Calcium Absorption by the Gut. Low Vitamin D could lead to insufficient levels of Calcium in the Blood, so the Calcium is being released from the Bones. The reduction of Calcium from the Bones can make them weak & Subject To Fracture.31) Where two Bone surfaces meet34) Manual manipulation of a Broken Bone to set it into its natural position without surgery36) Under "normal" conditions, Receptors in the Parathyroid Glands bind Blood Calcium. When the Receptors are full, the Parathyroid Gland stops secreting PTH. In the condition described, the Parathyroid Glands are not responding to the signal that there is sufficient Calcium in the Blood & they keep releasing PTH, which causes the Bone to release more Calcium into the Blood. Ultimately, the Bones become fragile & Hypercalcemia can happen because of this.37) Cell responsible for resorbing bone38) Broken bone39) Process by which osteoclasts resorb old or damaged bone at the same time as & on the same surface where osteoblasts form new bone to replace osseous tissue of the epiphysis40) Organ system composed of bones & cartilage that provides for movement, support, & protection41) (Also, osteogenesis) Bone formation42) Thin layer of cartilage covering an Epiphysis; reduces friction & acts as a Shock Absorber43) Delicate membranous lining of a Bone's Medullary Cavity44) Primary cell in mature bone; responsible for maintaining the matrix45) (Also, Volkmann's canal) That branches off from the central canal & houses vessels & nerves that extend to the periosteum & endosteum46) Blood clot that forms at the site of a broken bone
