Why do bones need stress for bone maintenance?
Stress or strain on bones stimulates osteoblasts (cells that build bones).
What is meant by compression of bones?
Compression of bones refers to a condition where bones are subjected to a force that causes them to decrease in size or volume. This can occur due to excessive weight-bearing, aging, or medical conditions like osteoporosis. Compression of bones can lead to pain, fractures, and deformities if left untreated.
What are sinews and tendons and are they the same thing?
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.
Can you give sentences with the word compression?
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.
How do cranial bones become ossified?
Cranial bones develop within fibrous membranes. Cranial bone tissues are adapted to support weight and withstand the tension and stress of the skull.
Can a bone develop on giving constant compression and tension to a region for several years?
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.
The main effect of applying mechanical stress to bones is?
main effect of mechanical stress
How does long bone resist breaking when stress?
Long bones resist breaking under stress due to their cylindrical shape, which helps distribute forces evenly across the bone. Additionally, long bones are made up of hard outer compact bone that provides strength and support, while the inner spongy bone helps absorb and dissipate energy to prevent fractures. Finally, the bone is reinforced by a network of collagen fibers that add flexibility and resistance to bending or snapping.
What are the mechanical loads on the human body?
mechanical loads on human body are: 1-compression 2-tension 3-shear 4-stress 5-strain 6-bending/bucking 7-torsion 8-combined 9-repetitive 10-acute (1,2,3 are pure forms)
How does physical stress affect bone development?
Bones benefit from stress. It makes them grow stronger, as long as the stress is not sufficient to break them, of course.
Does cracking your joints have any long term adverse effects?
