Human SkeletonHuman Skeleton Appendicular SkeletonAppendicular Skeleton

The bones that make up the appendicular skeleton are scapula, clavicle or collar bone, humerus, radius, ulna, tibia, femur, pelvic girdle and fibula.

Scapula - flat, triangular-shaped bone, that forms the skeletal basis of the shoulder.Humerus – the bone of the upper arm, its upper end articulates with the scapula to form a ball-end-socket joint at the shoulder, allowing movement in all directions.Ulna – longer bone of the forearm that articulates with the humerus.Radius – flattened, slightly curved bone in the hand.Pelvic girdle – provides connection between the axial skeleton and the hind limbs.Femur – largest bone in the human body, its lower end articulates with the tibia to form a hinge joint at the knee.Fibula – shorter and smaller bone, found along with the tibia, giving skeletal support to the leg.

How movement is brought in a limbHow movement is brought in a limb

The movement of the forelimb is brought about by the contraction and relaxation of a pair of antagonistic muscles, namely the biceps and the triceps.The arm is flexed by the contraction of the bicep muscles. The tricep muscles relax as the bicep muscles become thicker and shorter. Contraction of the bicep muscles pulls the ulna up thus bending the arm at the elbow joint.To straighten the arm, the tricep muscles contract while the bicep muscles relax. Contraction of the tricep muscles pulls the ulna down and arm is straightened.

Tendon-tough, strong and inelastic strands ofdense connective tissues-connects skeletal muscle to the bones

Ligaments-holds the bones together-tough sheets of elastic fibres -connects bone to bone-allows the movements and prevent the

dislocation of the joint during movement Antagonistic pairs-a pair of muscles work together to allow coordinated movement of skeletal joints.( contracts & relaxes)

Osteoporosis is a disease where the bone tissue starts eroding, making the bones brittle and prone to fractures. T is common in the elderly and women after menopause.Osteoporosis can be prevented by taking a diet rich in calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D, regular weight-bearing exercise, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol.

It is a genetic disorder of the muscle tissues caused by the lack of nourishment to the affected muscles. It causes the muscles in the body to become very weak. The muscles break down and are replaced with fatty deposits over time. Muscular dystrophy is more common in males than in females. It is usually seen in children between two to ten years old. Duchenne muscular dystrophy is the most common form of muscular dystrophy, caused by an X-linked recessive gene.

Treatment-There is no known treatment, medicine, or surgery to cure muscular dystrophy or stop the muscles from weakening. The goal of treatment is to prevent deformity and allow the child to function as independently as possible.

Arthritis is the inflammation of one or more joints characterised by swelling, warmth, redness of the overlying area, pain and restriction of movement.Is comprises more than 100 distinct conditions and can affect people at any stage of life. The most common forms are osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and gout.Osteoarthristis is most common in older people where the top layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. Rheumatoid arthritis causes inflammation of the synovial membrane of the joints in the hands, wrists, neck, jaw, elbows, feet and ankles, which may cause damage to the cartilage and bone itself. Gout is condition that results from deposition of uric acid in the joints.

Earthworm Earthworm -Invertebrate which do not have exoskeleton, but uses body fluid to maintain a hydrostatic skeleton.-The movement of the earthworm is aided by hydrostatic pressure so that the body of the earthworm can shorten, elongate and protrudes forward.-there are two pairs of muscle i.e. circular and longitudinal muscles that act antagonistically.-contraction and retraction of circular and longitudinal muscle will cause a peristalsis wave and enables it to move forward.

Grasshopper Grasshopper Grasshoppers have an exoskeleton.Muscle bundles on the inside, are attached to the exoskeleton. Across the joints. The muscles work in that antagonistic pairs is known as the flexor and extensor muscles. The contraction results in the bending of the joint and the relaxation results in the extending of the joint. Antagonistic pairs allow movement of the appendage in both the directions.Grasshoppers have three pairs of legs. The body is supported on a tripod of three legs in walking. The other three legs pull or push the body forwards. The third pair legs are long with powerful muscles for jumping. The extensor muscles are attached to the tendons.Before jumping, the rear legs are fully flexed. Energy is stored in the elastic tendons caused by the contraction of both the flexor and the extensor muscles.During jumping, the flexor muscles relax and the extensor contract causing the rear legs to straighten. The energy stored in the tendon propels the grasshopper into the air. The grasshopper can jump 20 times its body length.Grasshoppers have a pair of wings. The wings are flattened extensions of the exoskeleton. During flight, the wings of the grasshopper move forwards and backwards, upwards and downwards through the air owing to contractions of the flight muscles. This produces a lift by driving the air downwards which in turn enables the grasshopper to lift off and fly.

Fish Fish Fish have a streamlined body, smooth and rounded at the anterior part of the fish, and long and tapering body towards the posterior end. This helps to overcome water resistance while moving in water.Fish swim by contracting and relaxing a succession of muscle blocks called myotomes. These muscle contract and relax alternately on each side of the body, starting at the head and progressing down towards the tail.The alternate contracting and relaxing of myotomes, which bends part of the body first towards the other side, result in a series of waves travelling down the fish’s body. The rear part of each wave thrusts against the water and propels the fish forward.Fish have fins to overcome the instability in water while swimming. The dorsal and the ventral fins are useful in stabilising the fish as it swims, helping to change direction quickly, or used with the other fins for applying brakes. Paired pectoral and pelvic fins help to overcome rolling and pitching by stabilising the fish’s body.

Bird Bird The bird’s wing has a curved shape called an aerofoil. The air on the upper part has a lower pressure than the air moving over the lower part. This pressure difference makes the lifting of the body possible by the wing.There are two pairs of antagonistic muscles that are evolved for flight. The larger pair called the pectoralis major contracts

for the downstroke. The pectoralis minor handles the upstroke, which needs far less power.Conversely, the contraction of the pectoralis major muscles moves the wing downwards and backwards. [email protected]@hotmail.com

Frog Frog Frogs make use of their long hind legs to effect several kinds of locomotion such as jumping, hopping, swimming, burrowing, and climbing. The long hind legs have well developed muscles to lift them off the ground.When the frogs are at rest, the long hind legs are folded into a ‘Z’ shape.Frogs crawl by extending and retracting their fore and hind limbs.During hopping, the extensor muscles contract rapidly, causing the hind legs to straighten suddenly. A force is produced to push the frog upwards and forwards.Frogs land on their short forelimbs. The short forelimbs absorb the shock of impact. Most frogs can jump ten times their body length.

2.2 Appreciating a Healthy 2.2 Appreciating a Healthy Musculoskeletal SystemMusculoskeletal System

-A balanced diet - It is very important to have a diet rich in proteins to build muscles and calcium for strong teeth and bones. Fats and oils should be avoided.-Good posture – A good posture is to be maintained in all occasions and slouching should be avoided. A good posture while perfoming certain tasks helps to ensure that the body is always well-supported.-Proper attire for daily activities – Comfortable clothes and shoes should be worn especially during long walks so that the flow of movement is not hindered.-Exercise – The right amount and the right kind of exercise are very important for a healthy musculoskeletal system. The correct and safe exercise technique should be practised. The wrong kind of exercise can cause serious injuries to the musculoskeletal system. Appropriate precautions should be taken during vigorous activities which can result in strains, sprains, dislocations and fractures.
