The Skeletal System: divided into two groups, the axial and appendicular skeleton for a total of 206 bones in the body.

I. The Axial Skeleton: consists of 80 bones that revolve around the vertical axis of the skeleton.

*skull, ribs, sternum and vertebral column

1. The Skull

A. Cranial bones (8):

*frontal (1)

*parietal (2)

*temporal (2)

*sphenoid (1)

*ethmoid (1)

*occipital (1)

III. Functions of the Skeletal System

A. Axial Skeleton Functions:

*protects the brain and internal organs.

*provides structure and support

*attachment for muscles

III. Functions of the Skeletal System

B. Appendicular Skeleton Functions:

*protection

*attachment for muscles

*support and movement

*blood cell formation

IV. Types of Bones

1. Long Bones: those that are longer than they are wide.

*femur, tibia, fibula

*humerus, radius, ulna

*clavicle

*metacarpals

*metatarsals

*phalanges

2. Short Bones: are as wide as they are long.

*tarsals of the foot

*carpals of the hand

3. Flat Bones: broad flat plates used for protection and muscular attachment. Most RBC’s are produce in flat bones.

*skull

*rib cage

*sternum

*scapula

*pelvis

*os coxae (hip bone)

4. Irregular Bones: have peculiar shapes and cannot be grouped in the other bone categories.

*verterbrae

*sacrum

*coccyx

*mandible

*maxilla

*hyoid

V. Anatomical Terminology

V. Anatomical Terminology

1. Anterior: towards the front.

2. Posterior: towards the back.

3. Superior: towards the head.

4. Inferior: towards the feet.

5. Proximal: nearest; closer to any point of reference.

6. Distal: remote; farther from any point of reference.

7. Lateral: point that is more distant from the median plane.

8. Medial: point that is closer to the median plane

VI. Connective Tissue

1. Cartilage: a flexible connective tissue found between the bones of joints. It acts as a cushion between joints and reduces friction in movement.

VI. Connective Tissue

2. Ligament: dense, flexible tissue that connects bone to bone at a joint.

VI. Connective Tissue

3. Tendon: consists of dense collagen fibers and connect muscle to bone.

VII. Joint: point where two or more bones articulate allowing movement and mechanical support.

A. Types of Joints1. Fibrous: held

together by fibrous connective tissue. Usually immovable or slightly moveable.

Ex. Suture joints between cranial bones and distal joint of tibia and fibula.

2. Cartilaginous: joints held together by cartilage. May be immovable or slightly movable.

3. Synovial: freely movable joints characterized by a synovial cavity (joint cavity) containing synovial fluid.

Features of Synovial Joints:

a. Articular cartilage: (hyaline cartilage) covers the ends of bones.

b. Synovial membrane: surrounds the synovial cavity.

c. Articular Capsule: is composed of the synovial membrane and the fibrous capsule.

d. Bursae: fluid filled sac that cushions and reduces friction between moving structures.

e. Meniscus: disperses the weight of the body and reduces friction in the joint.

Types of Synovial joints

1. Hinge: allow flexion and extension along one plane.

*elbow

*knee

*ankle

*joints in the fingers

Types of Synovial joints

2. Ball and Socket: allow all movements except gliding.

*hip

*shoulder

Types of Synovial joints

3. Condyloid: allow flexion, extension, abduction, adduction and circumduction.

*wrist

*between the metacarpals and phalanges.

Types of Synovial joints

4. Pivot: one bone rotates about another.

*the neck

*radius and ulna

Types of Synovial joints

5. Gliding: permit sliding and gliding movements.

*spine

*wrist

*ankles

*clavicle

Types of Synovial joints

6. Saddle: same movement as condyloid joints.

Write a 1 page essay outlining the function of

connective tissue.

Discuss the role played by cartilage, ligaments and

tendons citing examples from specific joints.

The Muscular System

I. Characteristics of muscle tissue

*contractibility-ability of the muscle to shorten.

*extensibility: ability of the muscle to lengthen.

*elasticity: ability of the muscle to return to it’s normal size.

I. Characteristics of muscle tissue

* atrophy-a decrease in the size of muscle tissue.

* hypertrophy-an increase in the size of muscle tissue.

* Controlled by nerve tissue and fed by capillaries.

II. Types of Muscle Tissue

A. Smooth: Involuntary muscle that lines the walls of hollow organs, blood vessels and the digestive tract.

II. Types of Muscle Tissue

B. Cardiac: involuntary striated muscle responsible for rhythmic contractions of the heart.

II. Types of Muscle Tissue

C. Skeletal: Voluntary striated muscle that is responsible for movement.

III. Structure of Skeletal Muscle

III. Structure of Skeletal Muscle

IV. Muscle Attachment

1. Origin: the point of attachment of a muscle tendon to a stationary bone.

2. Insertion: point of attachment of a muscle tendon to a movable bone.
