Lecture # 15: The Skeletal System-1(Chapter 8)

Objectives:1- Identify the bones of the axial and appendicular skeletons.

2- Describe the general structure and components of the vertebral column.

3- Describe the criteria used to classify joints structurally and functionally.

4- Describe the anatomical features common to all synovial joints, the six types of synovial joints, and the movements allowed at each type.

Vertebra ColumnFunctions:1- Supports the skull and trunk, and allows for their movement2- Protects the spinal cord3- Absorbs stress of walking, running, and lifting

Cervical curvature

Thoracic curvature

Lumbar curvature

Pelvic curvature

Scoliosis: It is an abnormal lateral curvature, due to a developmental abnormality in which the body and arch fail to develop on one side of the vertebrae. It is the most common, usually in thoracic region. It is particularly frequent in adolescent girls

Kyphosis (hunchback): It is an exaggerated thoracic curvature, usually from osteoporosis, also osteomalacia or spinal tuberculosis, or wrestling or weightlifting in young boys

Lordosis (swayback): It is an exaggerated lumbar curvature. It is from pregnancy or obesity

A comparison of vertebrae from cervical, thoracic and lumbar regions

Intervertebral foramina are passageways for spinal nerves running to or from the enclosed spinal cord

Intervertebral foramina

Vertebral foramen

Transverse foramina

Together, the vertebral foramina of successive vertebrae form the vertebral canal , which encloses the spinal cord

Transverse foramina of cervical vertebrae are passageways for vertebral artery (and vein, no shown)
