Q: Which equation correctly represents the feedback mechanism for calcium homeostasis involving calcitonin and parathyroid hormone?

$$Ca^{2+}$$_{blood} \downarrow \Rightarrow \text{Parathyroid hormone released} \Rightarrow \text{Osteoclast activity} \uparrow$$

Q: Which equation best represents Wolf's Law regarding bone adaptation?

$$\text{Bone mass} \propto \text{Mechanical stress}$$

Question 1

Which of the following best describes the difference between interstitial and appositional cartilage growth?

Accepted Answer

Interstitial growth increases cartilage length by expansion from within, while appositional growth increases thickness by adding new layers to the surface.

Accepted Answer

Spongy bone

Question 3

During endochondral ossification, which type of cartilage is replaced by bone?

Accepted Answer

Hyaline cartilage

Question 4

Which hormone increases blood calcium levels by stimulating osteoclast activity?

Accepted Answer

Parathyroid hormone (PTH)

Question 5

A patient presents with a fracture that has formed a hematoma and a soft callus. Which stage of fracture healing is this?

Accepted Answer

Soft callus formation

Question 6

Which of the following is a function of the periosteal bud during endochondral ossification?

Accepted Answer

Brings blood vessels, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts into the cartilage model

Question 7

Which equation correctly represents the feedback mechanism for calcium homeostasis involving calcitonin and parathyroid hormone?

Accepted Answer
