Cancellous Bone:
This type of bone looks like a sponge and it is found at both ends of long bones and in irregular, flat and sesamoid bones. Bone marrow only exists in cancellous bone
It also looks as though it had grown larger over time. I say this because the bone itself appears “stretched” at an abnormal rate, unlike the growth of a femur over time. The bone is rough in appearance and seems like it may have a similar texture to that of osteomyelitis, though I do not think the nasal growth has any connection to osteomyelitis. The shape of the growth is similar to that of a bee hive.…
Also storage chemical energy. This tissue as it name says is found in bones. e) Blood: this type of tissue is found in around all our body in arteries, arterioles, capillaries and veins. The functions of this tissue are to transport oxygen and carbon dioxide, water, urea, hormones, enzymes, glucose, amino acids, plasma proteins, leucocytes and erythrocytes which are blood cells. Also maintains the temperature, control PH, regulates the excess of salt and remove…
In intramembranous ossification, the bone grows within a membrane. In endochondral ossification,…
In the “Washington Post,” Howard Bennett wrote the article, “Ever Wondered about Broken Bones?” In addition, he begins his article with a childhood memory, and in this memory he broke his radius. His article describes broken bones and how X-rays pass through the soft tissues of your body. Bennett conceives fractures more common in kids, kids experience growth plate fractures, buckle fractures, and a green stick fractures. To conclude his paragraph, he encourages to prevent fractures, he says to wear protective…
Hi Everyone. Instructor Murphy did an excellent job of describing the skeletal system in more detail for us in her recent post. I though it would be fun to talk about some of the different types of fractures that can occur. Simple fractures or closed fractures occur when a bone breaks without breaking through the skin.…
Waka was shopping in town the morning the sea came in. There was no eldest son to arrange her funeral rites, no daughter to moisten her lips for The Water of the Last Moment. The chauffeur undertook it. Next, the maid stuffed Waka’s every orifice with cotton. They were the only ones to pass the night with her body.…
What is it to be human? One would think that humans would be experts on the subject, but instead the question seems without answer. The Wisdom of the Bones by Alan Walker and Pat Shipman explores this question by defining the physical and behavioral characteristics of humans and their ancestors. Despite our ability to create clean categories for other animals to fit in, Walker and Shipman reveal that there seems to be something harder for humans to define about ourselves. As is done with any other animal, the logical place to start is with humans’ unique physical traits.…
Communities are not defined by whether they have good or bad morals. Communities are people with a common interest coming together for the same purpose. This incorporates secret societies such as the Skull and Bones to be considered a community. The Skull and Bones are only found at Yale University.…
Thus, with the pain of adding the art to his arm, Chappie ceases identifying as he once was and takes on the name Bone. Just as he changed his tattoo design to meet certain standards and expectations for himself, the alteration of his identity cannot be without a set of goals for himself to meet. The practicality of it all aside, Bone established immediately that his new identity was designed to be tough and strong, as he planned to show off his new tattoo and make the design apparent by “making a power salute (Banks 106),” but also that he was carrying certain ideas with him, like associating his new ink with the prominent Civil Rights figure Malcom X. However, the strongest take away from Bone’s new tattoo is two things: first, he does not…

But, he decided that there is no other way to deal with the abusive and the ignorance he experience in his own house to finally run away from the society trying to be himself.

The structure of the axial system consists of 80 bones. These bones consist of, the cranium, cervical, sternum ribs, thoracic, lumbar, sacrum and coccyx. These are mainly found in the vertebral column. The axial system provides a surface for major muscles to attach onto, which allows them to stay on the body.…
