âSherpa lining,â in the garment industry, refers to a polyester lining with a deep pile and large, fuzzy ânapsâ that give it a bumpy texture. The overall effect is similar to real sheepâs wool, but sherpa lining is lighter weight, much less bulky, and faster-drying. Itâs also considerably cheaper, and avoids any ethical concerns about animal products.
A broken bone, or fracture, happens when excessive force applied to your bone causes it to break or shatter. Some fractures break the bone completely, while others just cause a crack in the bone. Fracture types vary depending on the circumstances of your injury and the amount of force applied to the bone. A simple fracture happens when the bone is broken into two pieces. 2  An open or compound fracture happens when a piece of bone protrudes through your skin or if the force of the injury breaks the skin. 3  A closed fracture happens when the bone is broken, but the skin is intact.
The skeletal system is also susceptible to breaks, strains and fractures. While bones are meant to protect the bodyâs vital organs, it takes about 10 to 16 pounds of pressure to break an average bone. Bones such as the skull and femur are much tougher to break.n the middle of some bones is jelly-like bone marrow, where new cells are constantly being produced for blood, the Merck Manuals noted. Teeth are considered part of the skeletal system but they are not counted as bones. Teeth are made of dentin and enamel, which is strongest substance in your body.
