    What is B?

    • Proximal epiphysis

    • Diaphysis

    • Distal Epiphysis

    • Periosteum

    Correct Answer
    A. Diaphysis
    Explanation
    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.

    • Diaphysis

    • Distal Epiphysis

    • Proximal Epiphysis

    • Endosteum

    Correct Answer
    A. Proximal Epiphysis
    Explanation
    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.

    What does red bone marrow do?

    • Makes white blood cells

    • Makes blood cells

    • Makes red blood cells

    • Makes marrow

    Correct Answer
    A. Makes blood cells
    Explanation
    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.

    What are the functions of bone (check all that apply)

    • Protection

    • Support/movement

    • Energy

    • Triglyceride storage (fat)

    • Blood cell production

    • Mineral homeostasis

    • Vitamin production

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Protection
    A. Support/movement
    A. Triglyceride storage (fat)
    A. Blood cell production
    A. Mineral homeostasis
    Explanation
    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:

  • 14. 

    All _____ joints have a synovial cavity, or a space between the articulating bone.

    Correct Answer(s)
    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.
