NURS 8022: FINAL EXAM - M/S EXAM
WITH CORRECT QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS 2025
A. axial skeleton - CORRECT-ANSWERSPortion of the skeletal system that consists of the
skull, rib cage, and vertebral column; 80 bones
B. Appendicular skeleton - CORRECT-ANSWERSbones of the shoulder, pelvis, and upper
and lower extremities; 126 bones
C. osteoblasts - CORRECT-ANSWERSbone forming cells; bone is shaped according to
function; derived from mesenchymal cells; produce osteocalcin when stimulated by
vitamin D
D. osteoclasts - CORRECT-ANSWERSBone-destroying cells, break down bone matrix for
remodeling and the release of calcium; large and multinucleated
E. osteocytes - CORRECT-ANSWERSa bone cell, formed when an osteoblast becomes
embedded in the matrix it has secreted; maintain bone by signaling osteoblasts and
osteoclasts to form and resorb bone
, F. Compact bone - CORRECT-ANSWERSHard, dense bone tissue that is beneath the outer
membrane of a bone; cortical bone; 85% of the skeleton; solid and strong; haversian
system is basic structural unit in compact bone
G. Spongy bone - CORRECT-ANSWERSLayer of bone tissue having many small spaces and
found just inside the layer of compact bone; cancellous bone; 15% of the skeleton; filled
with red bone marrow; lack haversian system; trabeculae: plates or bars instead
H. bone remodeling - CORRECT-ANSWERSongoing replacement of old bone tissue by new
bone tissue
I. bone repair - CORRECT-ANSWERS1. hematoma formation
J. 2. callus formation
K. 3. callus ossification
L. 4. bone remodeling
M. Fibrous joints - CORRECT-ANSWERSconsists of inflexible layers of dense connective
tissue, holds the bones tightly together; sutures
N. cartilaginous joints - CORRECT-ANSWERSallow only slight movement and consist of
bones connected entirely by cartilage
O. symphysis joint - CORRECT-ANSWERStwo bones joined by fibrocartilage; symphysis
pubis and intervertebral disks
