What does over secretion of the human growth hormone during childhood cause?
In children (where the epiphyseal growth plate has not fused yet), it can lead to gigantism In adults (closed epiphyseal growth plate in bones), it leads to acromegaly.
What type of joint is found at the shoulder and between the skull plates?
The shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint. The joints between the skull plates are fused joints (no movement).
What is a fixed joint in the skeleton?
A fixed joint is a joint between two bones that doesn't move. A good example of this is in the skull - the skull plates don't move together or against each other, but they are connected or fused. Fixed joints are also called fused joints for this reason.
What is the age of someone whose lambdoidal and sagittal sutures are fused but the coronal sutures are not fused?
The person is from ages 32-50 when the lambdoidal and sagittal sutures are fused but the coronal sutures are not fused.
Why an infant's skull joints are flexible but those of a teenager have fused together and are immovable?
their bones are not fused together yet so they have more of them teenagers have less bones cause some are fused together mean while some are not fused I learned this is science class
What organ makes you grow?
Growth is controlled by the pituitary gland (back of the brain, at the base), which releases a substance imaginatively named "human growth hormone". If you are at an age where you bone end plates have not fused (i.e you have not yet stopped growing), this hormone will make you grow. This hormone is still released when you have stopped growing, however in this instance it acts as a naturally occuring "anabolic".
Will a 27 year old male can still grow taller?
I believe it's different for everyone, there is a possibility you can. I suggest you check your doctor doctor and have an x-ray to see if your Growth Plates have fused. See if your doctor can provide Human Growth Hormone (HGH) treatment which can help to stimulate extra growth. If they have fused already, then you probably won't grow any further naturally.
How can you determine if your growth plates have fused besides being X-rayed?
An MRI scan will tell you.
How can you determine if your growth plates have fused besides being X rayed?
An MRI scan will tell you.
How do you know when youve stopped growing?
You can't be absolutely sure unless you have had an x-ray of your growth plates which are confirmed to be fused.
Could a human being grow after puberty in anatomical dimensions if adminstered a Pituitary hormone?
No. Once the epiphyseal (growth) plates at the end of your long bones (femur, humerus, etc), have fused (a result of your sex hormone in puberty), you can no longer grow in height (without repeated breaking and moulding of the bones) The pituitary hormone responsible for growth - the Growth Hormone (original), if in excess in a post-pubertal person, will result in acromegaly, a condition where the soft tissue will swell, as does some other bones (notably, your forehead & jaw). If all this was to occur in someone pre-pubertal, it would resort in gigantism - and yes you would continue to grow.
How can 31 years old grow taller?
At the age of 31, your growth plates have already fused, so there is no non-surgical way to cause your body to grow more.
What has flattened immovable endoskeleton made up of fused plates?

What is the plural of welder?
The plural of welder is welders. As in "the welders fused the metal plates together".
Can you grow taller after growth plates have fused?
No, it is impossible to grow. Growth plates are areas of collagen, soft tissue. New bones build on top one another leading to growth. Fusion means that your growth plates have ossified (completely turn into bones). You can get bone lengthening surgery, which can cost at least 50-75K for an added 3 inches of growth.
Why are the bones of the sacrum fused together?
Many joints are not fused a birth. These include the skull as well. This allows for rapid growth and maturation of the boney skeleton.
