The flat bones of the skull develop from
- A.
Areolar tissue
- B.
Hyaline cartilage
- C.
Fibrous connective tissue
- D.
Compact bone
Correct Answer
C. Fibrous connective tissueExplanation
The flat bones of the skull develop from fibrous connective tissue. During fetal development, the skull bones start as fibrous connective tissue membranes called fontanelles. These fontanelles gradually ossify and transform into the flat bones of the skull. Fibrous connective tissue provides flexibility and allows for the growth and shaping of the skull bones as the baby's brain grows. As ossification occurs, the fibrous connective tissue is replaced by compact bone, resulting in the formation of the flat bones of the skull.Rate this question:

Bone remodeling in adults is regulated and directed mainly by:
- A.
Growth hormone
- B.
Thyroid hormones
- C.
Sex hormones
- D.
Mechanical stress & PTH
Correct Answer
D. Mechanical stress & PTHExplanation
Bone remodeling in adults is regulated and directed mainly by mechanical stress and parathyroid hormone (PTH). Mechanical stress refers to the physical forces applied to the bones during activities such as weight-bearing exercises. These forces stimulate bone cells to remodel and strengthen the bone tissue. PTH, on the other hand, is a hormone produced by the parathyroid glands that plays a crucial role in maintaining calcium balance in the body. It stimulates bone resorption, which is the process of breaking down old bone tissue, and promotes the release of calcium into the bloodstream. Together, mechanical stress and PTH ensure the continuous renewal and adaptation of bone tissue to meet the body's needs.Rate this question:

Where within the epiphyseal plate are the dividing cartilage cells located?
- A.
Nearest the shaft
- B.
In the marrow cavity
- C.
Farthest from the shaft
- D.
In the primary ossification center
Correct Answer
C. Farthest from the shaftExplanation
The dividing cartilage cells within the epiphyseal plate are located farthest from the shaft. This is because the epiphyseal plate is responsible for longitudinal bone growth, and the dividing cartilage cells are actively multiplying to lengthen the bone. As new cells are produced, they push the older cells away from the shaft, causing them to move towards the ends of the bone, which are farthest from the shaft.Rate this question:

Wolff's law is concerned with:
- A.
Calcium homeostasis of the blood
- B.
The thickness and shape of a bone being determined by mechanical and gravitational stresses placed on it
- C.
The electric charge on bone surfaces
Correct Answer
B. The thickness and shape of a bone being determined by mechanical and gravitational stresses placed on itExplanation
Wolff's law states that the structure and shape of a bone are influenced by the mechanical and gravitational forces acting upon it. This means that bones will adapt and remodel themselves in response to the stresses placed upon them. For example, if a bone is subjected to increased mechanical loads, it will become thicker and stronger to withstand the forces. Similarly, if the bone is not exposed to sufficient stress, it may become weaker and more prone to fractures. Therefore, Wolff's law is concerned with how the thickness and shape of bones are determined by mechanical and gravitational stresses.Rate this question:

Formation of the bony callus in fracture repair is followed by:
- A.
Hematoma formation
- B.
Fibrocartilaginous callus formation
- C.
Bone remodeling to convert woven bone to compact bone
- D.
Formation of granulation tissue
Correct Answer
C. Bone remodeling to convert woven bone to compact boneExplanation
The correct answer is bone remodeling to convert woven bone to compact bone. After the formation of the bony callus, which is a bridge of new bone that stabilizes the fracture, the next step in fracture repair is the remodeling of the woven bone. Woven bone is initially formed as a temporary replacement for the fractured bone, but it is structurally weak and disorganized. Through the process of bone remodeling, the woven bone is gradually replaced by compact bone, which is stronger and more organized. This remodeling process involves the removal of excess bone tissue and the addition of new bone tissue, resulting in the restoration of the bone's normal structure and strength.Rate this question:
