It's the same thing as a hollow bone. That's one of the characteristics birds posse than enables them to fly (if their bones had the same weight as ours, they wouldn't be able to lift). Some dinosaurs had the same type of bones.
Hope it helped.
It is extremely essential in Hydraulics and mechanics. Your car would not run without pneumatics.
Pneumatization refers to the process of air spaces or cavities forming within a structure, particularly in bones. This phenomenon is most commonly observed in the skull, where certain bones develop air-filled sinuses that help reduce weight and improve resonance. In a broader context, it can also pertain to the introduction of air into a system or the presence of gas in tissues.
Atresia under-pneumatization of the frontal sinus refers to a developmental condition where the frontal sinus fails to develop adequately, resulting in reduced air space within the sinus cavity. This can lead to complications such as chronic sinusitis, nasal obstruction, and facial pain due to the lack of proper drainage. It is often diagnosed through imaging studies, and treatment may involve surgical intervention to address associated symptoms or complications. The condition is relatively rare and can vary in severity among individuals.
Poorly pneumatised refers to a condition where there is inadequate development or air-filled spaces within a structure, typically seen in the sinuses or mastoid bone. This can lead to symptoms such as chronic sinusitis, pressure changes, and increased risk of infections due to poor drainage. Treatment may involve medical management or surgical intervention to improve pneumatization and alleviate symptoms.
