| Question | Answer |
| Periostium | Bones Outer Lining |
| Endostium | Inner Lining of the Bone |
| Periostial Artery | Provides periostium and compact bone |
| Nutrient Artery | Pierces compact bone & supplies medullary cavity, spongy bone & deeper compact bone |
| Epipysis | Top and bottom of long bone (spongy bone) |
| Metaphysis | Actively dividing area that increases bone length |
| Diaphysis | Long thin part of long bone (contains mostly compact bone) |
| Epiphyseal artery | Supplies epiphysis with blood |
| Metaphyseal artery | Supplies metaphysis with blood |
| Bone is made of... | A calcified extracellular matrix and bone cells |
| What determines flexibility in bone? | Collagen |
| Skeletal system is divided into two parts- what are they | Axial & Appendicular Skeleton |
| Osteoblasts in the epiphyseal plate... | Increase bone length |
