The Skeleton: Bones & Joints
Chapter 7 Anatomy & Physiology I
Outline • BONES
– Main functions– Bone structure– Bone growth and repair– Bone markings
• BONES OF THE AXIAL SKELETON – Framework of the skull– Framework of the trunk
• BONES OF THE APPENDICULAR SKELETON – Upper division– Lower division
• DISORDERS OF BONE – Metabolic—osteoporosis, osteopenia, osteitis deformans, osteomalacia, rickets– Tumors– Infection—osteomyelitis, tuberculosis (in spine is called Pott disease)– Structural disorders—curvature of the spine, cleft palate, flat foot– Fractures—closed, open, greenstick, impacted, comminuted, spiral, transverse, oblique– Changes in aging—loss of calcium salts, decreased collagen production, thinning of intervertebral disks, loss of
flexibility• THE JOINTS (ARTICULATIONS)
– Kinds of joints– More about synovial joints– Disorders of Joints– Joint repair
Skeleton• Skeletal system is made up
of bones, joints, and supporting connective tissue
• Framework on which the body is constructed
• Must be strong enough to support & protect all body structures
• Most dense form of connective tissue in the body
• Consists of 206 bones, joints & supporting connective tissue
• Framework for entire body• Protection of delicate structures like brain &
spinal cord• Levers to assist muscles in providing
movement• Storehouse for Ca++ salts • Produce blood cells in red marrow
I. Bone Functions
• 206 bones• Axial skeleton – 80
bones -skull, facial bones, spine, ribcage
• Appendicular skeleton – 126 bones - pelvic bones, collarbones, extremity bones
II. Bone Structure
a. Long Bones
• Long bones– Diaphysis – long
narrow shaft– Medullary cavity –
middle of diaphysis, contains marrow
– Epiphysis – ends of long bone
b. Bone Tissue – Osseus Tissue
• Bones are alive. Bones are organs, with their own system of blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and nerves.• 2 types of bone
– Compact– Spongy, aka Cancellous
Compact Bone
• Makes up main shaft in long bones & outer layer in other bones
• Haversian System – ring of bone tissue surrounding a canal for nerves blood vessels
• Haversian canals – canal through which nerves & blood vessels travel in bone
• Lacunae – space in which bones cells (osteocytes) live • Volkmann canals – tunnels for nerves and vessels that
lead to the outside of the bone
Compact Bone
Cancellous (Spongy) Bone• Spongy appearance
because it has more spaces than compact bone
• Filled with red bone marrow
• Found at the epiphyses (ends) of long bones & at the center of other bones
Checkpoint 7-1: A long bone has a long narrow shaft and two irregular ends. What are the scientific names for the shaft and the ends of a long bone?
Checkpoint 7-2: What are the two types of osseus (bone) tissue and where is each type found?
c. Bone Marrow
• Red marrow – in epiphyses of long bones & center of other bones
• Red bone marrow manufactures blood cells. • Yellow marrow – in central cavities of the long
bones– Composed mainly of fat
d. Bone Membranes
• Periosteum – Covering on the outside of bones– Inner layer made of osteoblasts (bone producing cells)– Rich blood and nerve supply to nourish bone
• Endosteum – very thin covering that lines the marrow cavity in a bone
e. Bone Growth & Repair
• Embryonic skeleton is mainly cartilaginous (parts of skull fibrous CT)
• Osteoblasts – bone producing cells – Become active between 8 &12 weeks– From stem cells in endosteum & periosteum
• Ossification – conversion of cartilage to bone– Osteoblasts form a matrix (the material between cells) mainly of
collagen– Enzymes help deposit Ca++ in the matrix– Osteoblasts remain enclosed in lacunae and are now called
osteocytes– Osteocytes – mature bone cells that do not produce new bone
Bone Growth & Repair
• Osteoclasts – responsible for breakdown or resorption of bone tissue– Develop from monocytes (WBC)
• Necessary for remodeling and repair of bone during growth & development, & after injury
• Bone tissue formation & resorption regulated by hormones
• Bone formation & resorption continues throughout life
Checkpoint 7-3: What are the three types of cells found in bone and what is the role of each?
Which of these is a bone-building cell?
a. osteoblastb. osteoclastc. osteocyte
Formation of Long Bones
• Ossification begins at the center of the diaphysis during fetal development
• Epiphysial plates – bone forming centers at the ends of long bones that appear around birth
• Long bones grow in length from the epiphyseal plates throughout childhood
• Long bones grow wider in diaphysis as medullary cavity grows
• Calcification ends in late teens, early 20s and epiphyseal plate hardens
Ossification
Checkpoint 7-4: As the embryonic skeleton is converted from cartilage to bone, the intercellular matrix becomes hardened. What compounds are deposited in the matrix to harden it?
Checkpoint 7-5: After birth, long bones continue to grow in length at secondary centers. What are these centers called?
f. Bone Markings• Projections – “sticky-outy things”

• Osteoporosis• Osteitis deformans• Osteomalacia• Tumors• Osteomyelitis • Scoliosis• Cleft palate• Fractures
V. Bone Disorders
Metabolic Disorders
• Osteoporosis – lack of normal ca++ deposits, increased bone breakdown with no increase in bone production
Osteoporosis
Metabolic Disorders
• Osteitis deformans – • Aka Paget’s disease • Periods of ca++ loss
followed by excessive ca++ deposits causing bone deformities
Metabolic Disorders
• Osteomalacia – softening of bone due to no ca++ deposits forming
• Aka Ricketts
Tumors & Infection• Tumors from
other sites often metastasize to bones, particularly the spine
• Osteomyelitis – bone infection – can be difficult to treat
Structural Disorders
• Scoliosis – curvature of the spine, begins in teens and is generally idiopathic
Structural Disorders
• Cleft palate – congenital deformity in which there is faulty union of maxillary bones resulting in opening at the roof of the mouth
Fractures• Closed – simple fracture with no open wound• Open – broken bone protrudes through skin• Greenstick – one side broken, other side bent;
common in children• Impacted – broken ends are jammed together• Comminuted – bone is shattered• Spiral – bone has been twisted • Transverse – fracture in straight line across bone• Oblique – fracture occurs at an angle across bone
V. Joint
• Aka articulation• An area of junction
between 2 or more bones
• Classified based on material between joints & on the type of movement at the joint
3 Types of Joints
• Fibrous – held together by fibrous connective tissue– Sutures of the skull– Immovable joint so also termed synarthrodial
• Cartilaginous – connected by cartilage– Pubic symphsys – Vertebral bodies– Slightly moveable so also termed amphiarthrodial
• Synovial – have a joint cavity filled with synovial fluid– Most joints are synovial– Freely moveable so termed diarthrodial
Fibrous Joint
Cartilaginous Joints
Synovial Joints
Synovial Joint Structure• Ligaments – fibrous bands
that connect bone to bone– Reinforce & stabilize the
joints during movement• Joint capsule – connective
tissue joint enclosure• Articular cartilage – smooth
layer of hyaline cartilage that lines the bones
• Bursae – small synovial fluid filled sacs surrounding some joints to reduce stress
Types of Synovial Joints
• Gliding• Hinge• Pivot• Condyloid/Ellipsoidal• Saddle• Ball & socket
Synovial Joint Movement• Flexion• Extension• Abduction• Adduction• Circumduction • Rotation• Supination• Pronation• Inversion• Eversion• Dorsiflexion• Plantarflexion
Synovial Joint Movement• Flexion – bending to decrease the angle between bones• Extenion – straightening to increase angle between bones• Abduction – moving away from the midline of the body• Adduction – moving toward the midline of the body• Circumduction – combining angular movements to allow for free
movement in many directions
Rotation & Circumduction
Synovial Joint Movements
• Rotation – twisting or turning a bone on its own axis
• Supination – turning the palm upwards• Pronation – turning the palm downwards• Inversion – turning the foot inward• Eversion – turning the foot outward• Dorsiflexion – pointing the toes upward• Plantarflexion – pointing the toes downward
Supination & Pronation
Foot Movements
Joint Disorders
• Dislocation – the bones of a joint separate from each other– Ball & socket joints most likely to dislocate
• Sprain – rupture or tearing of ligaments supporting a joint
• Herniated disk – the disk between vertebra ruptures and the gel-like fluid leaks out, putting pressure on the spinal nerves
• Backache – 2nd only to common cold as a reason for missing work
Shoulder Dislocation
Herniated Disk
Arthritis
• Osteoarthritis – “wear & tear” arthritis – Aka degenerative joint disease– Degeneration of cartilage lining of bone, increased
bone growth in the joint space– Most common type of arthritis– Not systemic – selectively affects joints
• Rheumatoid arthritis – systemic autoimmune disease– Inflammation and overgrowth of synovial membranes
