Chapter 6, Problem 28RQ
How can a fractured diapliysis release fat globules into the bloodstream?
- The bone pierces fat stores in the skin.
- The yellow marrow in the diapliysis is exposed and damaged.
- The injury triggers the body to release fat from healthy bones.
- The red marrow in the fractured bone releases fat to heal the fracture.

Women build bone until about age 35 and then begin to lose about 1 percent of their bone mass annually. Men start losing bone mass approximately 10 to 20 years later. During the aging process, most skeletal system changes result from changes in connective tissue. Most bone loss is caused by the loss later in life of bone mineral content, especially calcium salts deposited in the bone matrix. The cartilage becomes hard and brittle.
