Skin


  • Covers the body and connects to the mucous membranes of the digestive, respiratory, and urogenital tracts as well as the conjunctivae of the eyelids, the lacrimal duct, and the typanic membrane
  • Acts as a physical barrier between the environment and underlying tissues
  • Assists in regulation of temperature and hydration as well as sensation
  • Consists of the epidermis, dermis, and a subcutaneous layer of adipose tissue
  • Consists of connective tissue bed containing blood vessels, lymphatics, muscles, and nerve endings covered by a stratified squamous epithelium

3 Types of Muscles

  1. Smooth
  2. Cardiac
  3. Skeletal

Smooth Muscle

  • Smooth found in the walls of hollow organs and inblood vessels and is under the control of the autonomous nervous system
  • No striations
  • Cannotbe voluntarily controlled
  • Spindle shapedand without striations
  • Makesup almost all visceral muscle except cardiac muscle
  • Linesthe interior of blood vessels
  • Usedfor slow, steady contractions
  • Involved in the movement of food and wasteproducts in the GI tract and bladder
  • Involvedin vasoconstriction
  • Organizedinto sheets of fiberssurrounded with endomysium and connected by strandsof collagen and elastin

Cardiac Muscle

  • forms the bulk of the heart and is optimized for rhythmic contractions under the control of the autonomic nervous system (ANS)
  • Found only in the heart
  • Striated (but shorter than skeletal)
  • Cannot be voluntarily controlled
  • Works in steady, rhythmic fashion
  • Controlled by the heart’s pacemaker
  • Short and branched
  • Surrounded by endomysium and connected by intercalated discs

Skeletal Muscle

  • forms bundles surrounded by connective tissue envelopes largely controlled by the somatic nervous system (SNS)
  • Longest muscle cell types
  • Striated
  • Can be voluntarily controlled
  • Made of hundreds to thousands of individual muscle cells called fibers
  • Muscle fibers are enclosed in connective tissue called endomysium
  • Fibers are gathered into bundles called fascicles bound by perimysium
  • Fascicles are bound together by epimysium

Origin

more fixed point of muscle attachment

Insertion

more movable point of muscle attachment

In limbs the insertion is...

always distal to the origin

6 Types of Movement

  1. Extensor
  2. Flexor
  3. Adduction
  4. Abduction
  5. Circumduction
  6. Rotation

Extensor

opens a joint or straightens the bone alignment

Flexor

closes a jointor angulates the bones

Adduction

moves the extremity toward the median plane (MP)

Abduction

moves the extremity away from the MP or the axis of the limb

Circumduction

moves anextremity in a plane represented by a cone


Rotation

moves a part along its long axis

Connective Tissue

  • Provide routes for nerves and blood vessels
  • Envelope, separate, or connect muscles, nerves and blood and lymphatic vessels
  • May blend with the periosteum of bone

Periosteum

connective tissue covering bone

Perichondrium

connective tissue covering cartilage

Peritoneum
a serous membrane largely made of connective tissue

Parietal peritoneum


covers the abdominal, pelvic, and scrotal cavities


Visceral peritoneum

covers the abdominal, pelvic, and scrotal organs
Connecting peritoneum
connects organs to other organs or the parietal peritoneum
Common Dorsal Mesentery
peritoneal fold which incorporates most of the abdominal organs
Pericardium

fibrous sac that envelopes the heart

Mediastinum

fibrous sheet that separates the two sides of the thoracic cavity and incorporates the heart, thymus, vena cava, and aorta


Pleurae

serous membranes that line the thoracic cavity and cover the lungs

Meninges
Protective membranes covering the brain and spinal column

Dura Mater

thick, fibrous, and the most superficial of the meninges
Arachnoid membrane
delicate and lines the deep surface of the dura mater
Pia mater
delicate and coats the surface of the brain, spinal cord, nerve roots, and the optic nerve

Skeleton

  • “The framework that the body hangs on”
  • Supports and protects the body
  • Provides attachment points for the muscles and acts as levers for motion
  • Made up of individual bones connected by ligaments and muscles

2 Types of Bone Tissue

  1. Compact Bone
  2. Spongy Bone

5 Types of Bones

  1. Long Bone
  2. Short Bone
  3. Sesamoid Bone
  4. Flat Bone
  5. Irregular Bone

Long Bone

consists of a shaft (diaphysis) with two extremities (proximal and distal epiphysis)

Short Bone

  • roughly cube like, primarily spongy bone surrounded by a thin layer of compact bone
  • Bones of the wrist and ankle

Sesamoid Bone

  • is a short bone embedded in a tendon or joint capsule
  • i.e., the patella

Flat Bone

  • a thin bone with spongy bone called diploe encased in compact bone
  • The sternum, the ribs, and most bones of the skull

Irregular Bone

  • bones that don’t fit into the previous categories
  • Vertebrae, pelvis, some skull bones

Structure of a flat bone, outside to inside

  1. Periosteum (outside)
  2. Compact bone
  3. Spongy bone
  4. Medullary cavity (inside)

Spongy Bone

contains either red bone marrow or a medullary cavity containing yellow bone marrow

Medullary Cavity

in spongy bone


internal termination of compact bone

Endosteum

fibrous tissue lining compact bone

Bone

Storage site for calcium and phosphorus

Bone components produce...

red and several types of white blood cells

3 Joint Structures

  1. Fibrous
  2. Cartilaginous
  3. Synovial

Fibrous Joint Structure

bones are joined by fibrous tissue, no joint cavity exists (skull sutures, teeth) and provide little or no movement


Cartilaginous Joint Structure

bones areunited by cartilage, no joint cavity exists(Epiphyseal disc, intervertebral disc), and permits compression or stretching

Synovial Joint Structure

bonesare separated by a joint cavity and permits significant movement

5 Main Components of Synovial Joints

  1. Articular cartilage covering the bone at the joint
  2. Has limited regeneration capabilities
  3. Articular capsule encloses the joint in an outer fibrous capsule and an inner synovial membrane
  4. Hip and knee joints have a fatty pad between the fibrous capsule and the synovial membrane or bone
  5. Joint cavity is the potential space within the articular capsule that is filled with a nutrient and waste transporting fluid called synovial fluid
  6. Synovial fluid is a lubricant made of hyaluronic acid thinned by interstitial fluid from blood plasma
  7. Reinforcing ligaments reinforce and strengthen the joint (intrinsic, extracapsular, intracapsular)

Periosteum
