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.
If a bone measures from the 22 cm mark to midway between the 50 cm and 51 cm mark its length is how many mm?
That means the bone is 28 1/2 cm long. 10 mm in a cm. 285 mm
What does radius mean?
Radius is half of the diameter of a circle. (How far the middle is to an edge) The diameter of a circle is how far one side is from the other going through the center of the circle.The word is also applied to the shorter of the two bones of the forearm, running from the elbow to the thumb side of the wrist. The other forearm bone is the ulna.
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.
