Tissues of the Skeletal System• Bones are living tissue.
– Compact bone is highly organized and composed of tubular osteons.
Osteocytes (bone cells) lie in lacunae, tiny chambers arranged in concentric circles (lamellas) around a central canal.
Matrix is collagen fibers, Ca/P mineral salts.
– Spongy bone contains numerous bars/plates (trabeculae) separated by unequal spaces.
Spaces are often filled with red bone marrow, the source of all blood cells.

Tissues of the Skeletal System• Cartilage
– Cartilage is flexible because the gel-like matrix contains collagenous and elastic fibers.
– Contains chondrocytes (cartilage cells)– Three types differ according to type and
arrangement of fibers.Hyaline - Firm and flexible (most
abundant). . . . Where?Fibrocartilage - Strong. . . . Where?Elastic - Flexible. . . . Where?

Tissues of the Skeletal System
• Fibrous Connective Tissue– Made of rows of fibroblasts (the cells)
separated by bundles of collagenous fibers.
Makes up ligaments (connect bone to bone) and tendons (connect muscles to bones at joints).

Bone Growth and Repair
• Several different types of cells are involved in bone growth and repair.– Osteoprogenitor cells.– Osteoblasts.– Osteocytes.– Osteoclasts.– Blasts – build.– Clasts – tear down.
![Page 12: 1 Chapter 10 Skeletal System Who is Ellen B. Has scoliosis? Side-ways curvature of the spine. Surgery!](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649cc05503460f949875b3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Bone Development and Growth
• Ossification refers to bone formation.– Intramembranous ossification - Bones
develop between sheets of fibrous tissue.– Endochondral ossification - Cartilage breaks
down in the center of the diaphysis.• After birth, the ends of developing bones
continue to grow, but secondary ossification centers soon appear.– Growth plate remains between primary and
secondary ossification centers.

Remodeling of Bones
• Osteoclasts derived from monocytes in red bone marrow break down bone, remove worn cells, and assist in depositing calcium in the blood.– Osteoblasts take calcium from blood and
form new bone.• Many older women, due to a lack of
estrogen, suffer from osteoporosis.

HEALTH FOCUS
You Can Avoid Osteoporosis.• When and why are you at risk?
• What are some of the risk factors?
• What can be done?
![Page 17: 1 Chapter 10 Skeletal System Who is Ellen B. Has scoliosis? Side-ways curvature of the spine. Surgery!](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649cc05503460f949875b3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Bone Repair
• Fracture repair takes place over a span of several months in a series of four steps.– Hematoma.– Fibrocartilaginous callus.– Bony callus.– Remodeling.
• Naming of a fracture indicates what kind of break occurred. . . . .
• Simple, compound, greenstick, impacted.

Bone Classification
• Bones are classified according to their shape, and whether they occur in the axial skeleton or the appendicular skeleton.– Axial – at the midline.– 80 bones.– Appendicular – appendages (limbs) and
their girdles.– 126 bones.
![Page 21: 1 Chapter 10 Skeletal System Who is Ellen B. Has scoliosis? Side-ways curvature of the spine. Surgery!](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649cc05503460f949875b3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

The Axial Skeleton
• The axial skeleton lies in the midline of the body and consists of:– Skull.– Hyoid bone.– Vertebral column.– Rib cage (sternum,or breastbone, and 12
pairs of ribs).
![Page 22: 1 Chapter 10 Skeletal System Who is Ellen B. Has scoliosis? Side-ways curvature of the spine. Surgery!](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649cc05503460f949875b3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

The Appendicular Skeleton
• The appendicular skeleton consists of bones within the pectoral and pelvic girdles and their attached limbs.– The pectoral girdle and upper limb (arm)
are specialized for flexibility.

• SEE Human Systems Work Together.• Rib cage enables oxygen to enter
bloodstream (Respiratory System).• Red bone marrow produces red and white

The Skull
• The skull is formed by the cranium and the facial bones.– The cranium contain eight bones.
Frontal boneTwo parietal bones.Occipital bone.Two temporal bones.Sphenoid bone.Ethmoid bone.

54
Hyoid Bone
• The hyoid bone is not part of the skull, but is part of the axial skeleton.– Only bone that does not articulate with
another bone.
![Page 55: 1 Chapter 10 Skeletal System Who is Ellen B. Has scoliosis? Side-ways curvature of the spine. Surgery!](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649cc05503460f949875b3/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)

The Vertebral Column
• Column made of thirty-three vertebrae.• Spinal cord passes through the vertebral
canal and gives off spinal nerves.• Vertebrae named according to location.
– Cervical. – Thoracic.– Lumbar.– Sacrum.– Coccyx.
![Page 56: 1 Chapter 10 Skeletal System Who is Ellen B. Has scoliosis? Side-ways curvature of the spine. Surgery!](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062423/56649cc05503460f949875b3/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
56
The Vertebral Column
• Intervertebral disks composed of fibrocartilage are found between the vertebrae and provide padding to absorb shock caused by movements and also provide flexibility of the column.

The Rib Cage
• The rib cage is composed of the thoracic vertebrae, ribs and associated cartilage, and the sternum.– Twelve pairs of ribs.
All connect to thoracic vertebrae in back.Upper seven pairs (true ribs) connect to
sternum by costal cartilage.Next three pairs (false ribs) attach to
sternum by common cartilage.Last two pairs (floating ribs)do not attach
to sternum.
