Answer:

This is refers to as Greenstick fracture.

Explanation:

This is the type of fracture common in children less than 10 years, in which there is incomplete fracture of the bone,with ,but  the cortex  remain flexed.It is called green stick because it is analogous to the act of breaking  a branch of a tree, which is not completely broken, from the main branch.
