Summary Introduction

To determine:

The meaning of 'logy' and the medical term related to 'logy'.

Introduction:

Bones are the primary skeletal structures in vertebrates. The bones also help in locomotion and maintaining the electrolyte balance of the body. Bones provide support and shape to the body. Some bones contain bone marrow which is responsible for the production of all the blood cell lineages due to totipotent nature of the stem cells contained in the bone marrow. Bones come in many different shapes-long, short, irregular, flat, sesamoid and wormian which have much in common. The study of bones is termed as osteology.
