The cranium is one of two parts of the skull. The other is the mandible which is the lower jaw. The cranium gives structural support to the face and provides a protective

It is more common in children of Asian‚ African-Caribbean and Middle Eastern origin because their skin is darker and needs more sunlight to get enough vitamin D. Babies born prematurely are also at risk of developing rickets because babies build up stores of vitamin D while in the womb. Symptoms Fragile bones‚ poor growth and skeletal deformities can all lead

YEAR 12 INTERGRATED SCIENCE 1C – HUMAN PHYSIOLOGY Dislocation A dislocation happens when power or heavy amount of weight is put on a ligament‚ resulting the ends of two connected bones to detach. Ligaments are flexible bands of fibrous tissue that attach numerous bones and cartilage. Ligaments also bore the bones in a joint together. Tensions on joint ligament can consequent to dislocation of the joint. The hip and shoulder joints‚ for example‚ are called "ball and socket" joints. Extreme force

fibrous tissues. They are comprised of cells separated by non-living material‚ which is called extracellular matrix. Connective tissue holds other tissues together such as in the formation of organs‚ and has the ability to stretch and contract passively. Bone‚ often referred to as osseous tissue‚ and blood are examples of specialized connective tissues. Conective tissues are cells that are suspended in a matrix of their own secretions.

A bone fracture is a medical condition where the continuity of the bone is broken. Most bone fractures occur because of high force impact or stress. However‚ medical conditions which weaken the bone may also be the cause of a fracture. A crack (not only break) in the bone is also known as a fracture. Among health care professionals break is a much less common term when talking about bones. However‚ both break and fracture mean that the normal bone structure has been disrupted
