Bone Growth

1. Bones increase in diameter through the process of appositional growth. 2. Bones increase in length by the process of ossification. 3. A person with epiphyseal lines is not growing taller. 4. A person with epiphyseal plates is growing taller.

Overview of Ossification

1. Osteocyte: a mature bone cell trapped in bone matrix. 2. Osteoblast: a cell that stores calcium in bone by making bone matrix. 3. Osteoclast: a cell that releases calcium from bone, increasing blood calcium levels. 4. Osteoclast: parathyroid hormone (PTH) activates this type of cell.

There are four stages in the healing of a bone fracture. Which of the following best illustrates the sequence of these stages? 1. Bony callus formation 2. Bone remodeling 3. Fibrocartilage callus formation 4. Hematoma formation
