Nursing Anatomy & Physiology (correct answers)
RED MARROW
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers bone marrow
found at the end of the long bones, also manufactures red and white blood cells
OSTEOCYTES
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers They are bone
cells that produce a hard, calcium rich extracellular matrix, and are embedded in a
matrix of collagen and minerals and form the skeleton of an organism
SKELETON
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers the hard structure
(bones and cartilages) that provides a framework for the body, as well as attachment
sites for muscle. Over 200 bones.
AXIAL SKELETON
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers pertaining to the
central part of the body, the head and trunk
APPENDICULAR SYSTEM
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers composed of 126
bones in the human body. The word appendicular is the adjective of the noun
appendage, which itself means a part that is joined to something larger. Functionally it is
involved in locomotion (Lower limbs) of the axial skeleton and manipulation of objects in
the environment (Upper limbs).
JOINTS
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers is the location at
which two or more bones make contact. They are constructed to allow movement and
provide mechanical support, and are classified structurally and functionally.
ligaments
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers fibrous tissue that
connects bone to bone, to provide stability to joints
tendon
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers the strong
connective tissue cords that attach skeletal muscles to bones
cartilage
, support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers strong connective
tissue that supports the body and is softer and more flexible than bone
osteoarthritis
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers Inflammation of
the bone and joint
rheumatoid arthritis
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers A chronic systemic
disease characterized by inflammation of the joints, stiffness, pain, and swelling that
results in crippling deformities
osteoporosis
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers a condition in
which the body's bones become weak and break easily
cardiac muscle
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers muscle tissue
found only in the heart
smooth muscle
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers involuntary muscle
found in internal organs, muscle that forms the walls of the intestine, stomach, blood
vessels, and other internal organs. has individual nucleus cells and no strations
skeletal muscle
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers Vouluntary,
striated muscle that moves bones, works in pairs and is attatched to bones by tendons
flexor
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers a muscle that
bends a part of the body, such as an arm or a leg
extensor
support and movement: the musculoskeletal system correct answers A muscle that
causes extension.
kidney correct answers organ that removes urea, excess water, and other waste
products from the blood and passes them to the ureter
nephron correct answers blood-filtering unit in the renal cortex of the kidney
glomerulus correct answers little ball-shaped cluster of capillaries located at the top of
each nephron
