Skeletal System

depends on who you ask but their is 2 points of view yes and no

-yes because it is what your body uses to pull on to move your body

-no because muscles do all the work

so it basically depends on how you want to think about it

The term for enlarged ends of long bones is epiphysis. This is a thin layer of compact bone overlying spongy bone.

Tarsals and carpals are short bones.

Metacarpals, metatarsals and phalanges are long bones.

The human's body has lots of bones. The 3 shortest ones are called the malleus, the stapes and the incus. Thease three bones create a group called the ossicles. Thease bones are located in the ear and they vibrate and enlarge small changes in pressure.

Skull and Bones is a secret society in which George W. Bush is a member of, as well as other American government officials. It is believed that this society worships Lucifer/Satan. It is also believed that all the secret society's are trying to create a new world order, like Bush seniors NWO Speech, (look it up on youtube.)

The bone beneath the tongue is called the hyoid bone. It is a U-shaped bone located in the neck that is not directly connected to any other bone in the body, but is held in place by muscles and ligaments.

• Skull - protects the brain
• Ribcage - protects the lungs and heart
• Vertebral column - protects the spinal cord
• Pelvis - protects the reproductive organs

The skull is the bony structure of the head that protects the brain and supports the face. It is made up of 22 bones, including the mandible (jaw bone) and the cranium (which encases the brain).

The type of connective tissue found in the trachea and between the ribs and sternum is hyaline cartilage. Hyaline cartilage is a smooth and flexible type of connective tissue that provides support and reduces friction between bones.

Progressive loss of bone density can lead to osteoporosis, a condition that weakens bones and increases the risk of fractures. It can also result in decreased bone strength and density, increasing the likelihood of other bone-related issues.

The most inferior portion of the pelvis is called the ischium, which is one of the three bones that make up the os coxae (hip bone). It is located at the lower and posterior part of the pelvis, providing support when sitting.

Yes, the hip bone is lateral to the umbilical region in the human body. The umbilical region is located in the central part of the abdomen, while the hip bone is situated on the sides of the body, more towards the back.

Yes, accessory bones are congenital. They are not acquired.

Bone marrow is located inside your bones where it is produced.

The simplest way to break a bone is to apply enough force on it, until it cannot hold. In other words, if you hit it hard enough, it will break.

If there is a sudden large amount of pressure on a bone it may break. This can be from as little as a hairline fracture to a fracture where the bone has snapped in two.

There are various types and pattern of fractures. It may be:

Closed, open, splintered, dispaced

Transverse, spiral, oblique, greenstick, compression are patterns of fracture

why do you want to

Well i guess you could jump of your roof or something? Make sure its not too dangerous though!

Bone fragments can be broken down by specialized cells called osteoclasts. These cells secrete enzymes and acids that break down the mineralized matrix of bone, allowing the fragments to be reabsorbed into the body for recycling and potential use in bone remodeling or repair.

A baby's skeleton contains 300 or more bones. These bones fuse together as the baby grows which explains why adults have less bones than babies and even children.

No, the eyelid is not a bone. It is a thin fold of skin and muscle that covers and protects the eye.

Factors that may affect bone fracture healing include the extent of the fracture, the age and overall health of the person, the blood supply to the area, the presence of any underlying medical conditions (such as diabetes or osteoporosis), and the quality of the medical care received (including proper immobilization and rehabilitation).

The plural form of epiphysis is epiphyses.

The amount of work a system can do is limited by factors such as the available energy input, efficiency of the system, and the degree of internal resistance or friction that dissipates energy. Additionally, the second law of thermodynamics imposes limitations on the efficiency of converting energy into work.

There are 24 vertebrae in the neck to waist region of a human. Each vertebra is a bone that makes up the spinal column and helps protect the spinal cord.

Like other tarsal bones, this bone plays a role in motion and support of the body. Additionally, the medial cuneiform touches four other bones: the intermediate cuneiform bone, the navicular, and two metatarsal bones.

No, an exoskeleton is not a type of bone. An exoskeleton is a hard external structure that provides support and protection for certain animals, such as insects and crustaceans, while bones are the internal, rigid structures that make up the skeletal system of vertebrate animals.

Bone density measurements are used to assess the strength and health of bones. They can diagnose conditions such as osteoporosis, monitor response to treatment, and estimate fracture risk. These measurements are typically obtained using a Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan.
