◍ Number of Bones in The Body.
Answer: 206 Bones
◍ Compact Bone.
Answer: Solid bone on the surface. Found where bones experience stress in
limited directions. Contains blood vessels and filled with osteons
◍ Spongy Bone.
Answer: Open network of trebeculae that make up boney interior. Found
where bones experience stress in multiple directions. Contains fat but no
osteons

Answer: AKA Bone Marrow. A soft tissue inside bone that produces blood
cells. Red= Spongy bone, White= Compact bone
◍ Water.
, Answer: this is what the human body must obtain from the environment to
survive
◍ Homeostasis.
Answer: tendency of the body to maintain a stable internal environment
◍ Negative feedback.

Answer: Can form 4 covalent bonds
◍ Trebeculae.
Answer: The irregular latticework of thin bony plates in spongy bone tissue
◍ Epiphysis.
Answer: Expanded ends of a long bone with spongy bone
◍ Sagittal.
Answer: anatomical section that separates body into right and left portions
◍ Neutral pH.
Answer: water solution that contains equal number hydrogen ions and
hydroxide ions
◍ Vital signs.
Answer: body temperature, blood pressure, respirations, pulse, oxygen
saturation
◍ Tenfold.
Answer: difference in hydrogen concentration between pH of 4 and pH of 5
◍ Decomposition reaction.
Answer: AB --> A + B
◍ Diaphysis.
Answer: Shaft of a long bone with compact bone layer
◍ Ionic bond.
