Match each statement with the correct term.
Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.
This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Type of biocomposites that consists of a matrix reinforced by a dispersed phase in form of discontinuous fibers.
Membrane Lamination
Biosensor
Fibrous Composites
Bioinert Materials
2. A type of biopolymer with short polymers of amino acids.
Membrane Lamination
Fiber Bonding
Polypeptides
Porous Materials
3. Materials that upon placement within the human body starts to dissolve (resorbed) and slowly replaced by advancing tissue (such as bone) i.e. tricalcium phosphate - polylactic- polyglycolic acid copolymers
Biopolymers
Metallic Biomaterials
Bioresorbable Materials
Bioceramics
4. Also known as hard materials and it usually has a mechanical function - being strong - hard materials which use less energy for an organism to produce than an equally strong organic material.
