Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Greenstick fractures are commonly seen in children because their bones are still developing and cartilaginous areas are vulnerable to incomplete breaks. Comminuted fractures involve the bone breaking into many pieces, simple fractures involve a clean break in the bone, and stress fractures result from repeated micro-trauma to the bone over time, which is less common in children.
