  • 3rd side (hint)
skeletal System functions
support
protection (skulls - protects brain)
(lungs-heart)
produces blood cells (red blood marrow)
stores minerals (calcium, phosphate)
stores fat (yellow marrow)
along with muscles work as levers to bring about to bring about movement
Bone Classes------long bone
The length is greater than the width
femur phalangees metatarsals
short bone
length & width about the same
carpals
flat bones
plate like w/ broad surfaces
skull parietal bone
irregular bones
weird, vary in shaoe
vertebrae
sesamoid bone
tiny tiny bones that develop after the fact
develop w/in tendon
Long bone anatomy-------- Epipyses
ends of bones
diaphysis
shaft of bone
articular cartilage
Is hyaline cartilage on the epiphysis
medullary cavity
Canal w/in shaft
Red bone marrow
Where blood cells are made
yellow marrow
fat storage (triglycerides)
periosteum
CT covering bone
endosteum
C.T. lining medullary cavity
compact bone tissue
Is dense bone containing calcium phosphate & collagen
osteon
cylinder shaped units functional units
osteocytes
Bone cells that live in lacunae
Central canals
contains nerves & blood vessels
canaliculi
connect central canal to lacunae
perforating canals
connect central canals also contain nerves in blood vessels
spongy bone tissue
contains numerous bony bars & plates called trabeculae
contains blood vessels, nerves, & bone marrow
3 types of bone cells
osteocytes, osteoblasts, osteoclasts
osteocyes
mature bone cells
osteoblasts
Bone forming cells
osteoclasts (cells)
break down bone dissolves bone & releases calcium
Bone homeostasis
Is maintained by hormones & negative feedback
calcium blood levels low
hormones keep it in check
osteoclasts break down & release calcium
calcium blood levels too high
osteoblasts store Ca in bones and they perform ossification
ossification
formation of bone (making bones)
2 types of ossification
intramembranous, endochindral
intramembranous
Bone develops between sheets of connective tissue
ex. ribs
endochondrial
hyaline cartilage is replaced by bone starts in diaphysis continues to mid 20's
ex. In fetus
endochondrial
primary ossification occurs in diaphysis
secondary occurs in epiphysis
epiphyseal plates
areas b/t primary &secondary ossification sites
remain hyaline cartilage
Bone repair----- fracture
fracture=bone break
formation of hematoma
blood clot forms b/t broken bones
fibro cartilage callus
fibro cartilage fills in space
bony callus
osteoblasts replace cartilage w/ bine
remodeling
osteoclasts & osteoblasts work together to further strengthen bone
fractures------- Greenstick
incomplete one side
fissured
incomplete along longitudinal axis
com minutes fracture
complete w/ fragments
transverse
complete @ right angle to bone
oblique
complete @ a diagnol angle
spiral
complete twisted break
skull=cranium
Can divide skull into 2 types cranium & facial
sutures
immovable joints in skull
fontanels
C.T. where skull bones meet in infants good for childbirth and they will eventually become suture
hyoid
Only bone not in direct contact w/ another
held in place by cartilage of larynx
spine= vertebral column
vertebral bones are separated by fibro cartilage intervertebral discs
forms part of thoracic cage
pectoral girdle
made up of scapula & clavicle it's what the arm hooks up too
pelvic girdle
made up of 3 bones
coxae, sacrum, coccyx
protects reproductive organs
female pelvis
Is more broad & flared to allow passage of baby during childbirth
joints=articulation
Where bones come together
3 types of joints
fibrous, cartilaginous, synovial joint
fibrous
immovable joints
ex. sutures
cartilaginous
slightly movable
ex.....In between rib &sternum
costal cartilage
in between public bone
pubic symphysis
synovial joint
freely movable bones held together by joint capsule
synovial membrane
lines cavities & secretes synovial fluid
a lube
ligaments
Hold bone to bone
tendons
Hold muscle to bone
menisci
pads of cartilage for cushioning &support
bursa
fluid filled sacs for cushion and support
types of synovial joints
types of synovial joints
ball & socket joint
hip & shoulder
condylar
between metacarpals & phalangees
knuckle joints
gliding=plane
between carpals
hinge
elbow & knee b/t phalangees
pivot
b/t radius & ulna
saddle
b/t carpal & metacarpal of thumb
joint movements
joint movements
flexion
angle b/t bones decrease
extension
angle b/t bones increases
hyperextension
extension beyond anatomical position
dorsiflexion
flexing the foot toward back of body
plantar flexion
pointing toe
abduction
moving parts away from one another
adduction
bringing parts together
circumduction
moving body part in a circle
rotation
twisting part around on axis
supination
Palm up
pronation
Palm down
inversion
turning sole of foot inward
eversion
sole turned outward
protraction
part is moved forward
retraction
part is moved back
elevation
part moved upward
