Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Accessory ossicles, nonfusions, and accessory foramen are all examples of skeletal anomalies, which are deviations from the normal morphology of the skeletal system. Pathological conditions, such as fractures or tumors, are not necessarily related to the presence of accessory ossicles or nonfused bones. Markers of occupational stress may refer to changes in bone density, joint shape, or appearance of bone spurs, but not necessarily to the presence of accessory ossicles or foramina. Therefore, the best choice is B) Skeletal anomalies.
