Question 1Every short bone has an epiphysis, diaphysis, metaphysis, and medullary cavity.

True

False

Question 2The organic portion of the extracellular matrix space provides all of the following functions EXCEPT for:

Tensile strength

Ability to resist stretch

Flexibility

Hardness

Question 3The majority of bones in the body are formed by endochondral ossification, where a cartilage model of bone is eventually converted to bone.

True

False

Question 4Which statement is true of calcitonin?

Increases calcium absorption in intestines

Overall, it will cause an increase of blood calcium levels

Increases the reabsorption of calcium in the kidneys

Inhibits the activity of osteoclasts

Question 5Which of the following is NOT a substance found within bone tissue?

Collagen fibers

Elastic fibers

Phosphate

Calcium

Question 6Red bone marrow is found in:

The medullary cavity

Spongy bone

Compact bone

The blood stream

Question 7Which choice best relates to and/or describes Wolff’s law of bone?

The amount of blood flow to bone tissue

Influences calcium absorption by the body

Calcium homeostasis of blood

The shape of bone is determined by the mechanical stresses placed upon it

Question 8Which statement is true of red bone marrow?

Is the location of triglyceride storage

Located in the medullary cavity of long bones in healthy adults

Located in spongy bone of bones in healthy adults

Found in only in short bones

Question 9The parietal and frontal bones are classified as:

Sesamoid bones

Short bones

Flat bones

Long bones

Question 10Formation of the fibrocartilaginous callus in the fracture repair of bone is followed up by which process?

Formation of granulation tissue

Hematoma formation

Bone remodeling

Bony callus formation

Question 11Which statement is true regarding the epiphyseal plates?

Assists the bones in appositional growth

Found in adult bones

It’s a portion of bone where cartilage cells are converted to bone tissue

Found in the diaphysis region of long bones

Question 12The trabeculae of spongy bone are well organized and align precisely along lines of stress, which ultimately help bone resist stress.

True

False

Question 16Which statement is true regarding an osteon?

Osteocytes do not contain blood vessels

True

False

Question 18When an epiphyseal plate “closes,” longitudinal growth is no longer possible.

True

False

Question 19Which statement is true of parathyroid hormone?

Inhibits the reabsorption of calcium in the kidneys

Increases blood calcium levels
