The correct answer is "Sutures, syndesmoses, and gomphoses." These are the three types of fibrous structural joints. Sutures are immovable joints found in the skull where the bones are tightly joined together. Syndesmoses are slightly movable joints where the bones are connected by ligaments, such as the tibia and fibula in the lower leg. Gomphoses are also immovable joints where the teeth are anchored in the sockets of the jawbone. These three types of joints play different roles in providing stability and movement in the body.Rate this question:

H. SYNDESMOSISExplanation
A syndesmosis is a type of fibrous joint where the bones are connected by a ligament or a sheet of fibrous tissue. This type of joint allows for limited movement, as the ligament provides some flexibility. It is different from other types of fibrous joints, such as sutures or gomphoses, which are immovable or only slightly movable. In a syndesmosis, the ligament allows for some degree of movement, but it is not as mobile as a synovial joint.Rate this question:

Osteocytes are mature bone cells that are found within the lacunae of bone tissue. They are responsible for maintaining the health and integrity of the bone matrix. Osteocytes communicate with each other and with other bone cells through small channels called canaliculi. They play a crucial role in bone remodeling and repair, as well as in the regulation of calcium and phosphate levels in the body. Osteocytes are derived from osteoblasts, which are responsible for bone formation, and they can also differentiate into osteoclasts, which are responsible for bone resorption. Therefore, osteocytes are an important component of bone tissue and contribute to its overall structure and function.Rate this question:

Osteoblasts are bone-forming cells that are responsible for synthesizing and secreting the organic components of the bone matrix. They play a crucial role in bone development, growth, and repair. Osteoblasts are found in both the diaphysis (shaft) and epiphysis (ends) of long bones, as well as in other bones throughout the body. They are involved in the process of bone mineralization by depositing calcium and other minerals onto the bone matrix. Osteoblasts eventually become osteocytes, which are mature bone cells that maintain and monitor the bone tissue.Rate this question:
