Anatomy 10 Exam Two Study Guide

Anatomy 10 Exam Two Study Guide

Remember, study guides are meant to guide you, they are not a comprehensive list of exam questions. If you want 100% or something close to it, then you have to study 100%, of the material. This means you know and understand every item in your lecture notes/on this study guide and how they interrelate with one another . Good Luck!

Ch. 4 Tissues

·  For all tissues discussed in class you should be able to match each tissue to its description, location and its function.

·  What is the difference between “blast” and “cyte” cell types?

·  What are the cell types of connective tissue? You should be able to determine the type of tissue a cell belongs to based on the prefix. Example the prefix “osteo” means that the cell is found in osseous CT (bone).

·  What are the steps of tissue repair? Be able to put them in order.

Ch. 5 The Skeleton

·  What are the functions of bone?

·  How are bones classified? Know how to classify the bones that we talked about in class.

·  Know the definition of the following bone markings:

o  Fossa, foramen, condyle, facet, process…

·  What are the membranes of bone? What surfaces do they cover and what cell types do they contain? How is the periosteum attached to bone?

·  What is the structure of a long bone? For each structure of a long bone, know its definition, location or function where appropriate.

·  What is the structure of short, flat and irregular bones?

·  What is an osteon? What texture of bone contains osteons?

·  What are the main differences between spongy and compact bone? What is the location of these bone textures relative to one another?

·  What are the organic and inorganic portions of bone, what are they called, and what do they consist of?

·  Interstitial and appositional growth.

·  What controls remodeling of bone?

·  Make sure you understand how blood calcium is regulated by the activity of PTH and know the bone cells involved in this calcium regulation.

·  What is osteoporosis?

·  Know the characteristics of each bone discussed in class. For example for the frontal bone we said that if forms the forehead and that it has the superior margins of each orbit on it. We talked about features of the humerus like the capitulum and trochlea and the role they play in joining the skeleton..

·  What are the components of the axial and appendicular skeleton?

·  What bones make up the pectoral girdle? Pelvic girdle? Are these bones part of the axial or appendicular skeleton?

·  What two sets of bones make up the skull? What is the function of these two sets of bones?

·  What are the eight cranial bones and the 14 facial bones? Of the cranial and facial bones, which ones are paired?

·  How does the skeleton articulate from top to bottom?(in as much detail as discussed in lecture)

·  Which seven bones contribute to each orbit?

·  What is unique about the hyoid bone?

·  What are the four normal curvatures of the vertebral column and which ones are primary? Secondary? What is the difference between primary and secondary curvatures?

·  How many vertebrae are in each region of the vertebral column?

·  What are the general features of most vertebrae?

·  What are the special features of C1 (atlas) and C2 (axis)?

·  What are the seven processes on most vertebrae?

·  What structures/surfaces are used in articulating the vertebrae?

·  How many pairs of ribs are there? Difference between true false and floating ribs?

·  What vertebrae do the ribs attach to?

·  What three bones fuse to form the coxal bone?

·  What are the differences (discussed in class) between the male and female pelves?

·  What is the definition of articulation?

·  What are the two functions of joints?

·  What are the general features found at all synovial joints?

·  Be able to label the bones of the human skeleton as well as major bones and sutures of the skull.
