Q. Excessive pulling of ligaments between two bones cause

AMUAMU 2000

Solution:

Excessive pulling of ligaments between two bones results in sprain. It is injury to joint due to over stretching or tearing of ligament or tendon.
Fracture of bone is breaking of bones into $2$ parts, which remain nearby. It is of following types:
(i) Green stick fracture is simple crack without breaking the bone into two pieces.
(ii) Compound fracture is breaking into two or more parts with some protruding out.
(iii) Comminuted fracture is breaking of bone into more than two pieces.
(iv) Evulsive fracture is a type of fracture, in which a chip or small piece breaks but remains attached to ligament.
