Science - Skeletal Bones
You may know the English names for the bones in our skeleton, but what are they called in Spanish?

Science - Skeletal Bones

This quiz is one of four Spanish science quizzes that you are being provided with here in the Spanish Medium Review quiz series. The science quizzes are designed only to help you learn new vocabulary words and not new information. Most of the information you should have already learned in your regular science classes and/or if you have taken the GRADE 7, Science – Basic Anatomy: The Skeleton quiz. With the understanding that you have already studied the skeletal bones, in this Spanish Medium Review quiz you will look at the science of the human body’s skeletal bones. Again, it will focus solely on the Spanish vocabulary words that are used to describe the same terms of the bones of the human skeleton. No detailed descriptions of the skeleton will be given here.
