Process
A __________________ is a bone marking that serves as a site for tissue attachment or as a part of a joint.
Condyle
A large round protuberance with a smooth articular surface on the end of a bone is a(n) _______________________________
D. outgrowth that may be a point for muscle attachment
A process on a bone is a/an A : depression that allows the passage of soft tissues B : projection through which blood vessels may pass C : attachment site for nerves that serve the bones D : outgrowth that may be a point for muscle attachment
Fissure
A(n) _____________________is a narrow slit in a bone through which blood vessels or nerves pass.
B. Facet, such as those found on the Vertebrae
There is a bone on the lab bench in front of you. On it, you see that there is a smooth and slightly convex articular surface. This bone marking would be a A : facet, such as those found on the femurs B : facet, such as those found on the vertebrae C : head, such as those found on the vertebrae D : head, such as those found on the femurs
Meatus
Tubelike opening.
A. foramen

C. Sulcus
Which of the following describes a furrow along a bone surface to accommodate a blood vessel, nerve, or tendon? A : fossa B : line C : sulcus D : fissure
D. Head
Which of the following is a bone surface marking associated with a joint? A : epicondyle B : trochanter C : fossa D : head
Foramen
Which of the following refers to a hole or cave-like opening in a bone? A : fossa B : meatus C : foramen D : fissure
A. Meatus
Which of the following refers to a tube-like opening in a bone? A : meatus B : fossa C : fissure D : foramen
B : Tubercle D: Line E: Crest 6667890-3
Connective tissue might attach to which of the following types of bone markings? Select all that apply. A : sulcus B : tubercle C : foramen D : line E : Crest
1) Depressions & Openings: Allow for Passage of Soft Tissue 2) Processes: allow for points of attachments
Depressions & Openings in bones allow for _____________ where as Processes allow __________________
can form joints
Depressions/Openings and Processes BOTH ______________
Fossa
Shallow depression.
Head
- (usually) Rounded Articular Projection supported on neck (constricted portion) of bone.
Condyle
- *Large, round protuberance* with a *Smooth Articular* Surface at end of bone.
Epicondyle
- *Roughened* Projection above condyle.
Line (Linea)
- Long, *Narrow* Ridge or Border
Processes
- Projections or outgrowths on bone that form Joints or Attachment Pts. for C.T, such as Tendons & Ligaments
Crest
- Prominent Ridge or *Elongated* projection.
Tubercle
- Rounded Projection that varies in size
Spinous Process
- Sharp, slender projection.
Facet
- Smooth, Flat, slightly concave or convex articular surface.
Tuberosity
- projection that has a Rough, Bumpy Surface and varies in size.
C. a Spinous Process
The bone in front of you has a sharp, slender projection sticking off one side. What would you call this type of marking? A : an epicondyle B : a tuberosity C : a spinous process D : a trochanter
