Sensory aid

Question 2

Answer

True
False

Question 7

Question

Select the correct summaries about bone's gross structure.

Answer

Flat bones are curved, have a thin layer of cancellous bone within two thin layers of compact bone, and provide protection or surface for muscle attachment.
Irregular bones can be differentiated from flat bones generally by observing they have a hole within them.
Long bones have a diaphysis, and wider extremities at the ends called the epiphyses. They function as levers.
Short bones are equal in length and width, and are mostly compact bone.
Sesamoid bones vary from person to person.

Question 8

Question

The axial skeleton is made up of:

Answer

skull, thoracic cage, vertebral column
skull, thoracic cage, vertebral column not including coccyx
limbs, pectoral girdle, pelvic girdle, extremities

Answer

True
False

Question 10

Question

Answer

True
False

Question 11

Question

Answer

Question 12

Question

The thoracic cage comprises of the [blank_start]sternum[blank_end], costal [blank_start]cartilage[blank_end], and 12 sets of [blank_start]ribs[blank_end] on each side (with [blank_start]7[blank_end] being true ribs.)

Answer

sternum
cartilage
ribs

Question 13

Question

The pectoral girdle comprises of the [blank_start]clavicle and scapula[blank_end], which allow a large ROM. It is [blank_start]less[blank_end] stable than the pelvic girdle, which is comprised of the [blank_start]two hip bones and the sacrum[blank_end](which is axial).

Answer

clavicle and scapula
less
more
two hip bones and the sacrum

The humerus and femur both have round heads and distal condyles.
The humerus articulates with the fibula.
