Support - The backbone is the main support center for the upper body. It holds your head up and protects your spinal cord, Protection - The bones of your skull Protect your brain. Your ribs protect your lungs and heart from injury. ‘Makes Blood - Red and white blood Cells are formed by tissue called "marrow, which is in the center of the bone, 5. Storage - Bones store minerals, such as Calcium and phosphorus, for use by the body. FOUR BASIC BONE SHAPES 1. Long - arms, legs, fingers 2. Short - wrist and ankles 3. Flat - skull and sternum 4, Imegular - spine TYPICAL FOUR LAYERS OF THE BONE: @. Periosteum: Covers Bones b. Compact Bone: Lies beneath the periosteum ©. Spongy Bone: Lies beneath the compact bone d. Bone Marro spongy bone AXIAL SKELETON — includes the skull, spine, ribs ‘ond sternum, ils the gaps between the Cranium (Skull) — Rests on the superior end of ihe vertetoral column (backbone). Grouped inlo two categories: Cranial and Facial Bones, 1. Cranial Bones (crani — brain case) a. Frontal bone ~ forehead b. Temporal bone - temple; inferior lateral aspects ¢. Parietal bone - wall; sides and root d. Occipital bone - back of the head: Posterior part 2. Facial Bones 2. Maxilla (plural: maxiliae) - unite to form the upper jawbone . Mandible (mand ~ chew) — lower jawbone; largest and strongest facial bone Vertebral Column (Spinal Cord) |. The Cervical region/vertebrae (neck bones) ~ smaller than all other vertebrae 2. The Thoracic region/vertebrae (the ribs ‘attach to) ~ larger and stronger than cervical vertebrae 3. The Lumbar region/vertebrae (the lower Part of the back) - largest and strongest Of the unfused bones in the vertebral - column’ Sacrum ~ triangular bone formed by the union of five sacral vertebrae. Serves as a string foundation for the pelvic girdle. Coceyx - like the sacrum, is riangularin shape. Arliculates superiony with the apex of the sacrum, Thorax ~ refers to the entire chest @: Sternum (Breastbone) - flat, narow bone located center of the anterior thoracic wall, cong Bae Humans) f rane i i b. Ribs - Gives structural support to the ‘Carpus (Wrist Bones) - Proximal region of the sides of the thoracic cavity. hand a. Carpals b. Metacarpals c, Phalanges APPENDICULAR SKELETON — includes the ‘appendages of the body, which are the shoulders, arms, hips, and legs. Slavicle (Collarbone) - holds the shoulder joint ‘away from the rest of the upper body and is ‘only as thick as your ile finger. Scapula - located on the back side of the “acage and helps provide part of the shoulder jeint and movement for the arms Humerus (Upper Arm Bone) - Longest and largest bone of the upper limb. Articulates proximally with the scapula and distally with ‘the radius and ving, Radius - Located at the lateral aspect of the forearm {thumb side) Femur thigh bone, longest, heaviest, ond Una - Located at the medial aspect of the S¥oniges ona In the body foreorm [ittle-finger side) Patella (kneecap) ~ small angular bone located anterior to the knee joint Tibia (shin bone) - larger, medial, weight- bearing bone of the leg.

Tarsals b, Metatorsals j/ cc. Phalanges 4 orf Caleaneus ~ heel bone Fixed Immovable - Joint does no! move: Ee Skull Gliding Joint - Bones sii with a free flowing movs ipping over other bones ement; Ex. Knuckles JOINT OF THE BODY all and Socket Joint - Round end of bone filling snuggly within another bone; Ex. ‘Shoulder and Hip ‘Tendon — Attaches muscles to bones PROBLEMS OF THE SKELETAL SYSTEM 1. Fracture Break 2. Dislocation - Out of joint 3. Sprain - Swelling in joints 4. Arthritis ~ Inflamed and stiff joints 5. Scoliosis - Curvature of the spine $ Osteoporosis ~ Britle bones EP YOUR SYSTEM WORKING WELL Exercise every day Eat all the right amount of servings of each food group every day. Drink at least 3-4 glasses of milk a day. Eat 1-2 vitamins a day. It will keep your bones strong, FACTS ABOUT OUR BONES There are 305 bones in your body when you are aibaby, but there are 206 bones in your body when you are an adult Half of your bones are in your hands and feet Girls stop growing at the age 16 Boys stop growing at the age 18. Your bones are made of bone marrow, which is where red and white blood cells come from ‘ihe longest bone in your body is your femur, {tis 1891/2 inchesjong when you are an adult. The smallest bong in your body is ear foints in yourbody. There are 37 bonesin your hand. ‘Your face has 14 bones in it. There are 6 bones in your pelvis Your leg is the fastest growing bone in your body There is a total of 22 Bones in your skull and 26 bones in your spine. ‘The hardest part Of the bone is thevouten part ‘An adult's rib cage has 12 ribs A giraffe has the same amount of bones iivits neck as you have in your neck.

Effects of Muscles Results of increased muscle use Increase in muscle size Y Increase in muscle strength Y Increase in muscle efficiency, Y Muscle becomes more fatigue resistant Types of Body Movements 1° 1. Adduction ~ moving a body part toward the midline, 2. Abduction ~ moving a body part away from the midline. 3. Flexion (Flexor) ~ decreasing the angle between two bones and body part. Extension (Extensor) ~ increasing the angle between two bones and body part. Rotation ~ a circular motion which turns a body part on its axis. ‘Sphincters ~ ring like muscles that close body openings. example: rectum Elevators ~ lift @ part of the body Nou 8. Depressors ~ lower a part of the body. 9. Supination ~ the act of rotating the arm so the palm of the hand is upward. 10. . Pronation ~ the act of rotating the arm so the palm of the hand is turned downward. Types of Body Muscles Y Prime Mover-~ muscle with the major responsibility for a certain movement. Antagonist - muscle that opposes or reverses a prime mover, Symergist - muscle that aids a prime mover in a movement and helps prevent rotation.

Overusing a muscle or pinching nerve can cause a cramp. Polymyositis it affects the systemic connective tissue ‘Causing weakness and muscle atrophy.
