How many divisions is the body divided into?

2


Appendicular


Axial

Axial

skull, verbal column, bony thorax

Appendicular

limbs and girdle

Compact bone

80% of human bone mass


Homogeneous


highly organized cylindrical shaped


OSTEON

Spongy (cancellous) bone

Crisscrossing bony branches TRABECULAE


Many open spaces

Long Bones

Roughly cylindrical


typically longer than wide


They have enlarged and uniquely shaped ends that articulate (having JOINTS) with other bones


Contain mostly compact bone


EX: Femer, Humerus, radius, ulna

Short Bone (carpal bone)

Generally cube-shaped


Broad as they are long


Contain mostly spongy bone


EX: Carpals, tarsals

Flat Bones

Thin and flattened


Usually curved


Outer layer of compact bone surrounds a layer of spongy bone


EX: Skull, ribs, sternum, scapula

Irregular Bones

Various sizes and shapes


Often clustered in a group


--> Do not fit into other bone classification categories


EX: vertebrae, skull, facial bones

Sesamoid Bone


"Sesame seed" size and shape

Often appear singly in tendons close to joints


number and size vary from person to person


EX: patella

Osteocyte

mature bone cell that monitor and maintain your bone matrix

Osteoblasts

build


bone makers

Osteoclasts

bone breakers

Male Pelvic

deep and funnel-shaped


A subpubic angle of less than 90

Female Pelvic

Shallow and broad


A wider subpubic angle greater than 90

Hyaline

Most common type of cartilage


cover the articular surfaces of bones


EX: costal, rings of the trachea, bronchi of the lunges, tip of nose


Flexables

Elastic

non load bearing body parts


EX: external ear, spiglottis, aditory tubes that connect the middle ear and nasal cavity

Fibrocartilage

Rigid, strong, and associated with regions of dense connective tissue and found where compressions and shearing forces are most active


EX: pubic symphysis, Achilles tendon, intervertebral disks

Articulation

the state of being jointed


"the area of articulation of the lower jaw"

Joint

are the areas where 2 or more bones meet

structure

joints are named according to types of connective tissues that joins bones together

function

joints are named according to movements



synarthroses

immoveable joint (skull)

Amphiarthroses

slightly movable (pubic synthesis)

Diarthroses

freely moveable (hip)

Synovial Joints

hinge joints, pivot joint, saddle, condyloid, ball and socket, gliding

Flexion

bend arm together, decreasing the angle

extension

increasing the angle

hyperextension

widen the angle to a point of tensions (hinge)

abduction

moving away from the body

adduction

coming back to the body



circumduction

creates a circle

Stress fracture

microscopic bone damage


typically in leg or foot


repetitive trauma


no visible damage

compound fracture

broken bone projects through surround tissue and skin

simple fracture

does not produce a break in the skin

complete fracture

a break across the entire section of bone

Incomplete fracture

bone fragments still partially joined

bone fracture

break in the continuity of the bone


destroys blood vessels that carry nutrients to osteocytes

fracture healing

bone tissue repair is started by bone death or damage to osteon blood vessels

Steps to Repair

1. fracture hematoma


2. Cartilaginous tissue forms


3. Osteoblasts build callus tissue


4. Bone remolding will complete if properly aligned and immobilized

Bending force

force applied to a specific focal region overcomes the elastic limit of the bone, resulting in a cortical break on the opposite side of the force.

torsional Forces

when there is a twisting force applied to the long axis of the bone

compression forces

gravity induced
