The Skeletal System

Composed of the 206 bones in the human body!!

Skeletal System

Functions:1. Support – bears the weight of

the body

2. Protection- skull the brain, ribs=lungs

3. Movement – muscles attach

Skeletal System

Functions:4. Storage *minerals such as calcium & phosphorus are stored and released from bone*fat in yellow bone marrow

5. Hemopoiesis – makes blood cells in red bone marrow

Skeletal System

5 Types of bones categorized by shape:

1. Long bones Longer than wide Bear weight Ex. femur

Skeletal System5 Types of bones categorized by shape:

2. Short bones About same lengthas width Bear weight Ex. Carpels of wristand tarsals of ankle

Skeletal System5 Types of bones categorized by shape:

3. Flat bones Thin and usually curved Protect brain and thoracic

organs Provide wide area muscle

attachment Ex. Ribs, skull, shoulder

blades, sternum,pelvis

Skeletal System5 Types of bones categorized by shape:

4. Sesamoid Small and round Ex. Patella of knee

Skeletal System5 Types of bones categorized by shape:

5. Irregular Odd shaped and doesn’t fit

other categories Ex. vertebra

Skeletal System

Parts of the long bone:

Two main parts:

1. Epiphysis *Found on the ends*Spongy/Cancellous bone

Skeletal System

Parts of the long bone:

Two main parts:

2. Diaphysis• Shaft or long part• Is compact bone

Skeletal System

Types of bone tissue:

1. Spongy bone/Cancellous bone contains networks of bony plates

with spaces - trabeculae not as dense a compact bone

Skeletal System

Types of bone tissue:

2. Compact bone dense and hard Shaft of bone

Skeletal System

Other parts of long bone:

Epiphyseal plate or growth plate:Is hyaline tissue where growth

originates in those under 25 yrs

Epiphyseal line – in adults the epiphyseal plate ossifies or hardens to bone tissue

Skeletal System

Other parts of long bone:

Sheaths – cover the bonea. endosteum – inner most; lines the medullary cavityb. periosteum – outer most; which contains blood vessels and nerves

Skeletal System

Medullary cavity – central cavity of long bone where you find yellow or red bone marrow.

Types of Marrow:

1. Yellow bone marrow – stores fat

2. Red bone marrow – produces red and white blood cells

Skeletal system is divided into two major sections:

1. Axial skeleton – • bones of central axis • Includes 80 bones

• Includes: the skull, vertebral column, and thoracic cage

Skeletal system divided into two major sections:

2. Appendicular skeleton – bones of upper and lower appendages and bones that attach them to the axial skeleton

Upper appendages and girdles

Lower appendages and girdles

The Skeletal System

Appendicular Skeleton includes:

1. Pectoral girdle joins the upper limbs to the axial

skeleton Includes the clavicle (collar bone)

and scapula(shoulder blade)

Appendicular Skeleton includes:2. Pelvic girdle joins the lower limbs to the axial

skeleton Includes the 2 coxae , sacrum,

coccyx Coxae is formed by the fusion of

3 bones (ilium, pubis, and ischium)

2. Tibia – larger inner bone of lower leg

3. Fibula – smaller outer bone of lower leg

Bones of Lower Appendage

Appendicular skeleton includes:

Lower appendages include:

4. Patella Knee capActs as a lever to help move the leg

Appendicular skeleton includes:

5. Bones of ankle and foot:

•7 tarsus (ankle)•5 metatarsus (foot)•5 digits (foot) each with 3 phalanges – proximal, middle and distal phalanges except the big toe that has only 2 phalanges only proximal and distal

Ankle and foot:

TarsusTarsals

proximalmiddledistal

Appendicular skeleton includes:

Upper appendage includes:1. Humerus – upper bone that

attaches limb to pectoral girdle

2. Radius – small bone of lower arm that attaches to the thumbs

3. Ulna – small bone that attaches to the little finger and the humerus

Bones of upper appendage

Humerus

Appendicular skeleton includes:

Upper appendage includes:4. Bones of wrist and hand• 8 carpals

• 4 distal carpals• 4 proximal carpals• Articulation of carpals allows

you to move the wrist

5 Bones of the wrist and hand

Carpels

Appendicular skeleton includes:

Upper appendage includes:4. Bones of wrist and hand• 8 carpals

• Metacarpals – 5 long bones of the hand numbered I-V from the medial to lateral

(thumb to little finger)• Digits – made of phalanges

• Three phalanges/finger except thumb has only 2

• Proximal, middle, distal

Terminology:

Proximal – means nearest the body

Distal – means distant (away) from the body

Proximal and Distal

The Skeletal System

Differences between skeleton of child and adult:More bones in youth and fuse together as adult

Epiphyseal plate becomes lineRed bone marrow to yellowArticular cartilage thickens

The Skull or Cranium

The skull protects the brain and entrances to respiratory and digestive systems.

The skull has 28 bones.

The Skull

There are two

Sutures – lines or joints between the flat bones of the skulll

Sagittal suture – suture between the two parietal bones, space between when born that closes as develop.

PROCESSES – A PROJECTION OF THE BONE

A few more things:

Foramen – a hole

Mental foramen – is in the mandible and where the mental nerve passes through.

Sinus – a hollowed out space in the bone.

Nasal cavity – hollowed out, fluid filled regions covered with a thin mucous membrane divided by the vomer and ethmoid bone (septum).

Paranasal sinuses – air-filled spaces connected to the nasal cavities.

Sinuses reduce the weight of the skull, warm air entering body, and affect sound of the voice.

Orbits = eye sockets, house and protect the eye.

Using page 84 in your text label the bones of the cranium

Vertebral Column

Functions:•Protects the spinal cord•Supports the head and neck•Bears body weight

Vertebral Column

It is “S” shaped and acts as a spring or shock absorber to absorb the impact when we walk.

Vertebral Column

It is composed of a series of bones called vertebrae

Vertebral Column

It is marvelously designed to provide strength yet flexibility.

The way the vertebrae fit together the column

is strong yet one can bend and rotatethe back.

Vertebral Column

It is marvelously designed to provide strength yet flexibility.

The way the vertebrae fit together or interlock gives it strength

flexibility so can bend and rotate.

Vertebral Column

It is composed of 5 sections:7 cervical vertebrae12 thoracic vertebrae5 lumbar vertebraeSacrum – 5 fused vertebraeCoccyx – 3 fused vertebrae

Vertebral Column

Disorders:

At birth vertebral column in concave, and s shape develops.

Scoliosis – abnormal sideways curve of vertebral column.

Lordosis – exaggerated curve of lumbar – swayback

Shape of the VertebraeProcesses – bone extensions of the vertebrae for muscle attachment and interlock to give mobility.

Transverse process – extends to the sides of each vertebrae,

place for muscle/ ligament attachment.

Transverse process – extends to the sides of each vertebrae, place for muscle/ligament attachment.

Spinous process – extends backward and downward, place for muscle attachment.

Transverse process – extends to the sides of each vertebrae, place for muscle/ligament attachment.

Superior and inferior articular processes – interlock the vertebrae

Intervertebral Disc - fibrous cartilage found between the vertebrae distributing pressure evenly across the disc.

Herniated Disc - when a disc pushes outside its normal area. Often pinching the nerves causing pain and numbness.

Thoracic Cage

Commonly called the rib cage

Protects the heart, lungs, and other organs of the thoracic cavity

Encloses the thoracic cavity
