The largest ankle bone is:
1. cuboid
2. navicular
3. calcaneus
4. talus

A dense outer layer of vascular connective tissue enveloping the bones except at the surfaces of the joints is the:

1. epiphysis

2. diaphysis

3. articular cartilage

4. periosteum

What is number of bones in a human adult?

In an adult, erythropoeisis will be maximum in:
1. femur
2. sternum
3. humerus
4. tibia

When a bone bends and cracks, instead of breaking completely into separate pieces, the fracture is called as:

1. greenstick

2. incomplete

3. compound

4. simple

The critical event for the contraction of striated muscles would be that calcium ions:

All the following shorten during muscle contraction except:
1. sarcomere
2. A bands
3. I bands
4. H bands

Cross bridge formation during muscle contraction involves:

For the muscular movements to be coordinated, it is important that:
1. the muscle twitches must be of increasing strength.
2. muscle is divided into motor units
3. type I fibers must be more than type II fibers in a muscle
4. the muscle twitches undergo tetanization.

Calcium, vital for muscle contraction, is stored in:
1. transverse tubules
2. myosin head
3. myofibrils
4. sarcoplasmic reticulum
