Bones can resist compression because it is made up of extracellular matrix and cells. Bones are also flexible and strong.
There is articular cartilage over the joint surfaces such as the head of the femur and the epiphysil plate with in the bone that cushions pressure and reduces shock.
If your car seems to be losing power, you should check the compression of the engine.A patient who has received severe burns may require a compression bandage while he heals.Osteoporosis may cause compression fractures as the bones weaken and become more fragile.The forces of tension and compression work together to make bridges strong enough to hold considerable weight.
Stress or strain on bones stimulates osteoblasts (cells that build bones).
Sinews and tendons are tissues that connect muscles to bones and can withstand tension or stress. They are different names for the same thing, so yes, they are the same thing.
Cranial bones develop within fibrous membranes. Cranial bone tissues are adapted to support weight and withstand the tension and stress of the skull.
Yes, there are some occupational bone changes, for instance, on the shin bones related to standing on ladders for many years with the front part of the bone leaning on the rungs.
main effect of mechanical stress
A lateral stress placed on a bone (e.g. on Nicole's left tibia and fibula) actually causes (A) compression of the bone on the side of impact and (B) stretching (tearing) on the side opposite of the impact.
no it does not .. all it does is move your bones a little. and it will not cause arthritis
Bones benefit from stress. It makes them grow stronger, as long as the stress is not sufficient to break them, of course.
This is a good question! The calcium and phosphate level increase due to exercise. This is physiological response to stress of exercise. Your bones and muscles develop due to exercise. The bones becomes stronger and stronger as you give more and more stress to them. The stress lines also change as per requirement of the stress. Your bones get weak, when you put a plaster for fracture. This happens due to disuse of the bones.
They become thin and brittle.
