    The document outlines the major bones and joints of the human skeletal system, including the humerus, ulna, radius, pelvis, femur, tibia, fibula, and bones of the hands, feet, and spine. It also describes the types of movements possible at each joint, such as flexion, extension, adduction, and rotation. Key joints that allow motion are identified as the shoulder, hip, elbow, wrist, knee, and ankle joints.

    Humerus: Ulna and Radius: ossa Carpi (wrist bones) 8, ossa metacarpi 5, ossa digitorum Manus 14= Phalanx

    proximalis, medialis and distalis

    Lower Structure

    Pelvis: whole structure; bony pelvis; hip bone (individual bone) (Pelvic/Hip Girdle) Circulatory= 2 hip bones+ sacrum Hip Bone: Ilium, Ischium, pubic bone

    Cruz-Leg: Tibia and Fibula Femur: Thigh Ankle: Tarsus- 7 bones Metatarsus- foot- 5 metatarsal bones Toes: ossa Digitorum Pedis- 14 Phalanges

    Patella= Knee Cap

    Movements of the Joint


    Flexion= bending forward Extension= bending backwards Adduction= movement towards the body Medial Rotation= rotation towards the body Lateral Rotation= rotation away from the body Lateral Flexion (only the trunk)= bending sideways

    Joints needed for motion

    Shoulder and Hip Joints= 2 movable joints that can perform six movements Upper head joint= up and down Lower Head Joint= sideways, rotation of the head Sternal-clavicular joint Shoulder Joint= Scapula and Humerus Elbow joints (3)= flexion and extension= 2; pronate and supinate= 3 wrist joints (2)MP &PIP & DIP= both fingers and toes Hip joint= hip bone and femur Knee joint= femur and tibia Ankle joints = Upper and Lower Ankle joint

    Ligament Cartilage Standing straight= 2 ligaments loose Bending= tight

    1 muscle is responsible for one movement
