What does it mean if the 50 cm femur and the epiphyseal discs are completely ossified?
50cm is about the length of an adult - and when a bone is completely ossified, that means that bone has stopped growing.
What is a ephiphyseal line?
Epiphyseal line is the junction between diaphysis (long part of the bone) and epiphysis (growing end of the bone). This is the region where the growth of bone takes place. Gradually as an individual approaches puberty, the epiphysis fuses with the bone and the growth stops.
What is angle of pull?
angle of pull is the angle between muscle insertion and the bone on which the muscle inserts
What does it mean to elevate the periosteum?
The periosteum is a layer of connective tissue and bone cell precursors that overlies the bone itself. Excess growth between the periostem and bone can cause the periosteum to separate from the underlying bone. This elevation of periosteum forms a triangular shape when viewed in a radiograph (xray), and is often called Codman's triangle. Periosteal elevation is commonly associated with a cancer called osteosarcoma, but may also be seen in other diseases.
If a bone measures from the 24 cm mark to midway to the 50 cm mark how long is the bone?
The bone is 38 cm long. This can be calculated by finding the distance from the 24 cm mark to the 50 cm mark, which is 26 cm. Since the midway point is halfway between the two marks, it would be half of 26 cm, which is 13 cm. Adding 13 cm to the 24 cm mark gives a total length of 38 cm.
How long is the smallest bone in the human body in inches?
Stirrup Bone - (Stapes)The stirrup bone is found in your ear, is shaped like a 'U', and it's purpose in life is to pass vibrations from the anvil to cochlea.Anywhere from 0.25-0.33 cm in length.

The femur. By most measures the femur is the strongest and longest bone in the body.
The area of a long bone where growth in bone length occurs is the?
The growth in bone length of a long bone occurs at the epiphyseal plate, also known as the growth plate. This area is found at the ends of long bones and is responsible for new bone formation during childhood and adolescence, ultimately determining the final length of the bone.
Does the length of time the bone is in vinegar affect how much the bone bends?
brb
When the epiphysis closes on a bone the bone can no longer grow in what?
When the epiphysis closes on a bone, the bone can no longer grow in length. The closure of the epiphysis marks the end of longitudinal bone growth, but the bone can still increase in thickness through a process called appositional growth.
Bone growth in length is called?
interstitial
