In newborn roofing bones of the skull leave soft gaps called as the ______

  1. Sutures

  2. Fontanelle

  3. Symphasis

  4. gap junctions
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
An infant's skull is made up of 6 separate cranial (skull) bones:
  • Frontal bone
  • Occipital bone
  • Two parietal bones
  • Two temporal bones
These bones are held together by strong, fibrous, elastic tissues called sutures. Also, the soft spaces between the bones that remain open in babies and young children are called fontanelles. Sometimes, they are called soft spots. These spaces are a part of normal development. 

So, the correct option is 'Fontanels'.

Multiple choice evs our skeletal system and the skin bones and movements joints in the human body joints bones

Hips are attached to

  1. scapula

  2. sternum

  3. clavide

  4. ilium
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

The pelvic girdle is located in the lower part of the trunk. It consists of three bones that are upper ileum, lower ischium and inner pubis, they fuse to form a stout hip bone. Ventral wall of the pubis has a small bone which is known as cotyloid. The acetabulum is formed by ilium, ischium and pubis, but in mammals, pubis is replaced by cotyloid bone.

So, the correct option is 'ilium'

Elbow joint is an example of .......... type of joint.

  1. Ball and socket

  2. Gliding

  3. Hinge

  4. Pivot
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation
In hinge joints, the articulating ends of the bones fit together like a hinge on a door, and movement is therefore restricted to flexion and extension (movement only in one plane). 
The elbow joint is an example, which permits only flexion and extension of the forearm. Other examples of hinge joints are knee joint, ankle joint and joints between the phalanges of the fingers and the toes.
So, the answer is C.
