Broken bones...
Miss Jenni-Maie:
Never broken a bone in my life.
Sprains, Hyper-extensions, burns, and deep deep cuts are something I get all the time, though!

when i was 8 I fell off my stairs and landed on the palm of my hand backwards so i snapped both bones in that wrist and then a year later i was swinging on my clothesline pole and fell off of that and broke my other wrist. lol. at the time it hurt really bad and i was screaming for my mom but my sister (Dark_Card) and my brother were laughing there heads off so neither of them went and got my mom so i had to get up and go find my mom inside the house. lol now it is funny but when it happened i was so mad at them. lol

Hmm.. never broken a bone before. I just had a lecture on it so let me crap a little :hehe:
Bone basically make up of 2 different bon tissue called: compact (dense ) bone and cancellous (spongy) bone.
Compact bone if found on the outer layer of the bone and along the shaft. Spongy bone found in its interior that is where u can find your red bone marrow.
Compact bone is made up of the building unit called osteon which is tapered, cylinderical. It is arranged in parallel to the axis. Hence it can only withstand strength along the axis. so force applied to the side will break the bone. like how takewondo ppl break things.
Whereas spongy bone is found in the epihysis where it experience less stress and are able to withstand force from all magnitude cos it is made up of hard bond matrix called trabeculae which form an interwoven net work. Imagine like sponge and in the spaces are where your red bone marrow are found. It make your bone less heavy. :wink:
ok enough of crapping.. Make u more confused? :confused:

yeah, it was kinda confusing..but after being dragged to a science center in Cleveland to see an exibit on preserved actual human skeletons ,muscle and brains, it kinda makes sense now..but seeing the disorted spinal column was creepy..
