Skeletons may exhibit arthritic changes such as lipping of the vertebrae or compression of the vertebral bodies. Occasionally deformities from healed fractures are seen. Empty alveoli sockets maybe be the result of prior tooth loss or loss due to rough handling. Examine five of the bones in the lab and list any observable signs of trauma or pathology. For example, in forensic pathology, a broken hyoid bone suggests strangulation.
