(a) support,
(b) blood cell formation,
(c) mineral storage,
(d) providing levers for muscle activity,
(e) all of these.

2. 2.Articular cartilages are located


(a) at the ends of bones,
(b) between the ribs and the sternum (breastbone),
(c) between the epiphysis and diaphysis,
(d) in the nose.

3. 3.The perichondrium of cartilage is similar to


the of bone. (a) articular cartilages,
(b) spongy bone layer,
(c) osteons,
(d) marrow,
(e) periosteum.

4. 4.Use the key to indicate the type of cartilage that


forms each of the structures below.
Key: (a) hyaline cartilage
(b) elastic cartilage
(c) fibrocartilage

o (1) articular cartilage covering the surfaces


of movable joints
o (2) the epiglottis
o (3) the thyroid cartilage
o (4) the menisci in the knee
o (5) the embryonic skeleton
Chapter review questions:

5. 5.Indicate whether each of the following statements is


true (T) or false (F).
o (1) Cartilage is more resilient than bone.
o (2) Cartilage is especially strong in resisting
shear (bending and twisting) forces.
o (3) Cartilage can grow faster than bone in
the growing skeleton.
o (4) In the adult skeleton, cartilage heals
and regenerates faster than bone when damaged.
o (5) Neither bone nor cartilage contains
capillaries.
o (6) Bone tissue contains very little water
compared to other connective tissues, while
cartilage tissue contains a large amount of water.
o (7) Nutrients diffuse quickly through
cartilage matrix but very poorly through the solid
bone matrix.

6. 6.A bone that has essentially the same width, length,


and height is most likely.
(a) a long bone,
(b) a short bone,
(c) a flat bone,
(d) an irregular bone.

7. 7.The shaft of a long bone is properly called the:


(a) epiphysis,
(b) periosteum,
(c) diaphysis,
(d) compact bone.

8. 8.Match the function of bone markings described in


column B with the bone markings listed in column
Chapter review questions:

9. 9.Which listed feature is found in compact bone but not


found in spongy bone?
(a) a central canal containing blood vessels,
(b) lamellae of matrix,
(c) osteocytes in lacunae,
(d) canaliculi.

(a) areolar tissue,
(b) hyaline cartilage,
(c) mesenchyme membranes,
(d) compact bone.

11. 11.The following events apply to the endochondral


ossification process as it occurs in the primary
ossification center. Put these events in their proper
order by assigning each a number (1–6).

o (a) Cartilage in the diaphysis calcifies, and


chondrocytes die and disintegrate, leaving
cavities.
Chapter review questions:

o (b) A collar of bone is laid down around the


hyaline cartilage model just deep to the
periosteum.
o (c) The periosteal bud invades the center of
the diaphysis.
o (d) The perichondrium of shaft becomes
more vascularized and becomes a periosteum.
o (e) Osteoblasts first deposit bone tissue
around the cartilage spicules within the diaphysis.
o (f ) Osteoclasts remove the bone from the
center of the diaphysis, leaving a medullary cavity
that then houses marrow.

12. 12.The remodeling of bone tissue is a function of


which cells?
(a) chondrocytes and osteocytes,
(b) osteoblasts and osteoclasts,
(c) chondroblasts and osteoclasts,
(d) osteoblasts and osteocytes.

(c) the endosteum,
(d) the perichondrium,
(e) the growth zone of the epiphysis.

(b) compound,
(c) simple,
(d) comminuted,
(e) compression.

Chapter review questions:

(a) osteomalacia,
(b) osteoporosis,
(c) osteomyelitis,
(d) Paget’s disease.

16. 16.Where within an epiphyseal plate is the calcified


cartilage located?

(a) nearest the diaphysis,


(b) in the medullary cavity,
(c) farthest from the diaphysis,
(d) in the primary ossification center,
(e) all of these.

17. 17.Which area of bone contains endosteum?

(a) the exterior of the femur,


(b) the internal spaces of the canaliculi,
(c) the lining of the central canal of an osteon,
(d) the lamella of bone in the osteon.
