Explanation / Answer

4) c) osteocytes are located in lacunae which is contained in the calcified matrix of bone

function of osteocyte is to build bone matrix

they are derived from osteoblasts

5)b) elevations appear on the bone where the ligaments and tendons attach and where other bones articulate at the joint

depressions and grooves provide pathway for the nerves and vessels to travel

6)c) ankle bones are short bones

tarsals in the ankle such as calcaneus,talus,navicular,cuboid,lateral,cuneiform, intermediate cuneiform and medial cuneiform are short bones

7)d) long bones are longer than they are wide

femur is the longest bone in the body

long bones are mostly located in the appendicular skeleton
