What does red bone marrow do?
- A.
Makes white blood cells
- B.
Makes blood cells
- C.
Makes red blood cells
- D.
Makes marrow
Correct Answer
B. Makes blood cellsExplanation
Red bone marrow is responsible for producing various types of blood cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. These blood cells play crucial roles in the body's immune system, oxygen transportation, and blood clotting. Therefore, the statement "makes blood cells" accurately describes the function of red bone marrow.Rate this question:

What are the functions of bone (check all that apply)
- A.
Protection
- B.
Support/movement
- C.
Energy
- D.
Triglyceride storage (fat)
- E.
Blood cell production
- F.
Mineral homeostasis
- G.
Vitamin production
Correct Answer(s)
A. Protection
B. Support/movement
D. Triglyceride storage (fat)
E. Blood cell production
F. Mineral homeostasisExplanation
Bones serve multiple functions in the body. They provide protection to vital organs, such as the skull protecting the brain and the ribcage protecting the heart and lungs. Bones also provide support and enable movement by acting as a framework for muscles to attach to and allowing for the movement of joints. Additionally, bones store triglycerides (fat) which can be used as an energy source when needed. They are also involved in the production of blood cells, specifically in the bone marrow. Lastly, bones play a role in mineral homeostasis by storing and releasing minerals, such as calcium and phosphorus, as needed by the body.Rate this question:

What is A?
- A.
Diaphysis
- B.
Distal Epiphysis
- C.
Proximal Epiphysis
- D.
Endosteum
Correct Answer
C. Proximal EpiphysisExplanation
The proximal epiphysis refers to the end of a long bone that is closest to the main body of the bone. It is characterized by its rounded shape and is involved in the formation of joints. This region of the bone contains red bone marrow, which is responsible for the production of blood cells. The proximal epiphysis also serves as an attachment site for tendons and ligaments, allowing for movement and stability.Rate this question:

- A.
Proximal epiphysis
- B.
Diaphysis
- C.
Distal Epiphysis
- D.
Periosteum
Correct Answer
B. DiaphysisExplanation
The correct answer is Diaphysis. The diaphysis is the main shaft or middle part of a long bone. It is the region between the proximal and distal epiphysis. The diaphysis is primarily made up of compact bone and contains the medullary cavity, which houses the bone marrow.Rate this question:

Diaphysis
- C.
Distal Epiphysis
- D.
Endosteum
Correct Answer
C. Distal EpiphysisExplanation
The distal epiphysis refers to the end of a long bone that is farthest away from the center of the body. It is responsible for connecting the bone to other bones or structures in the body. This region is important for joint movement and stability.Rate this question:

All _____ joints have a synovial cavity, or a space between the articulating bone.
Correct Answer
diarthrosis
Explanation
Diarthrosis joints are a type of synovial joint that have a synovial cavity, which is a space between the articulating bones. These joints allow for free movement and are found in areas like the knees, elbows, and shoulders. Therefore, the correct answer is diarthrosis.Rate this question:
