Skull and Bones

Shubin states that, “Tiktaalik has a shoulder, elbow, and wrist composed of the same bones as an upper arm, forearm, and wrist in a human,” showing its connections to the human body. He then moves onto the history of our hands, referring to Sir Richard Owen’s discovery that there was a fundamental design in all vertebrate land animals along with many marine animals. Limbs had a one bone, two bones, and several little bones structure which penguins, bats, seals, whales and even dinosaurs had.…

of horse racing injuries. The cause of knee fractures is hyper-extension resulting from fatigue or poor confirmation. Another is bucked skins, caused by concussion on immature legs. Bucked shins are an inflammation of the tissue covering the cannon bones and often occur in young horses in early training. Bowed Tendon (a.k.a. Tendonitis) is a strain due to deep footing, fatigue, low heels and long toes, hyper-extension or improper training. An inflammation of the tendon or tendon sheath, usually…

HIV and diabetes. Resting the affected joint is mostly used for treatment to prevent any trauma issue. Traumatic injury is also another cause of this condition. The inflammation irritates because the sacs does not fit in and small area between the bone and functionary…

The nervous system tells the muscle what functions are needed to be made in the muscular system.the skeletal system consists of bones that are used as foundation for the muscles in the muscular system. The nervous system is the most important system in the body because without it. Muscles can not be able to move or perform simple functions throughout the body. 2. Gender- Muscle in men's body have more tissue than women typically do because of the hormone produced by males known as…

The most common disease also referred to as common joint disease (OA) is what occurs when one or more synovial joints fail. This failure of the joint causes the top layer of cartilage to break down and the affected bones slowly become bigger. Aside from this joint breakdown and bone growth, cartilage wearing causes rubbing to occur which then leads to sharp pain. This disease affects 80% of people over the age of 75 and it is highly prevalent among those over 60. Women experience OA more than…

During muscle and bone repair, there will be a natural attempt by the body to heal and repair, this usually presents its self in one of three ways. Regeneration, as the name suggests this is usually in mild cases or injury where very little tissue damage has occurred and the body may naturally be able to regenerate the initial structure. Resolution, this usually occurs following mild inflammation where the body removes dead cells and debris from the affected area, leaving the original non…

Micro-fracture consolidation can be treated with bone remodeling, and the adaptation of skeleton is applied to “calcium homeostasis” and to mechanical use. The bone remodeling involves the bone resorption regarding to osteoclasts and bone formation relating to osteoblasts. Regular bone-related diseases including “bone-metastasized cancers”, Paget’s disease, multiple myeloma, and osteoporosis are caused by the disproportion between the resorption and formation processes. The increased…

Bone Metastasis Bone metastasis is cancer that spreads to the bones from another part of the body. A person may have bone metastasis in one bone or in more than one bone. Cancer that spreads to the bones is different from cancer that starts in the bones (primary bone cancer). Bone metastasis is more common than primary bone cancer. The spine is the most common area for bone metastasis. Other common areas include the: • Hip bone (pelvis). • Ribs. • Skull. • Long bones of the arm or…

disease of bone is a rather uncommon condition that effects less that 1% of the population of the United States, often presenting with no symptoms or discomfort what so ever. It isn’t known what specifically causes this disease, but it is speculated that heredity plays a big part. Paget’s disease of bone is typically pretty manageable when symptoms do present themselves with a variety of pharmaceutical remedies. Paget’s Disease of Bone Paget’s disease of bone is basically a bone…
