, Explanation: A tendon is fibrous connective tissue that attaches skeletal muscle to bone.
Question 3. Question : _____ is the temporary displacement of two bones in which the
bone surfaces partially lose contact.
Dislocation
Subluxation
Malunion
Nonunion
Explanation: Dislocation is the temporary displacement of a bone from its normal position
in a joint. If the contact between the two surfaces is only partially lost, the
injury is called a subluxation.
Question 4. Question : Which disorder is characterized by the formation of abnormal new
bone at an accelerated rate beginning with excessive resorption of
spongy bone?
Osteomalacia
, Paget disease
Osteoporosis
Osteosarcoma
Explanation: Paget disease (osteitis deformans) is a state of increased metabolic activity in
bone characterized by abnormal and excessive bone remodeling, both
resorption and formation. Chronic accelerated remodeling eventually
enlarges and softens the affected bones.
Question 5. Question : What causes the crystallization within the synovial fluid of the
joint affected by gouty arthritis?
Reduced excretion of purines
Overproduction of uric acid
Increase in the glycosaminoglycan levels
Overproduction of proteoglycans
Explanation: When the uric acid reaches a certain concentration in fluids, it crystallizes,
forming insoluble precipitates that are deposited in connective tissues
