Answer;

-Greenstrick Fractures

Greenstrick Fractures are the types of fractures that are most common in children.

Step-by-step explanation;

A greenstick fracture involves a break on one side of the bone only

-The bones of a child are more likely to bend than to break completely because they are softer and the periosteum is stronger and thicker.

-The fractures that are most common in children are the incomplete fractures; these fractures are the greenstick and torus or buckle fractures.
