Two Divisions Axial Appendicular
Slide 3
Axial Skeleton
Slide 4
The axis of the Body Skull Inner ear bones Hyoid Bone Rib cage Vertebral column
Slide 5
Axial Skeleton Functions Framework for supporting and protecting organ systems in dorsal and ventral body cavities Surface area for muscle attachment Head, neck and trunk stability and movement Respiratory movement Stabilize/position appendicular skeleton
Slide 6
Skull Protect Brain Support sense organs Vision Hearing Balance Olfaction gustation
Slide 7
Skull 22 bones 8 cranial 14 facial Seven additional bones in the skull 6 auditory ossicles Hyoid bone
Slide 8
Hyoid Bone Suspended below the skull by ligaments Muscle base for the larynx (voice box) Supports and positions the larynx
Slide 9
Vertebral Column Spine is 26 bones 24 vertebrae Saccrum Coccyx
Slide 10
Vertebral Column Vertebrae are in regions Cervical (C1 C7): C1 = atlas; C2 = axis Thoracic (T1 T12) Articulate with ribs Lumbar (L1 L5) Total length in average adult is 28 inches
Slide 11
Intervertebral Disc Fibrocartilage disc that lies between two adjoining vertebrae Not found in sacrum or coccyx Shock absorbers
Slide 12
Act as ligaments that hold the vertebrae of the spine together and as cartilaginous joints that allow for slight mobility in the spine. Allow for movement at the waist as they act as a pivot point and allow the lumbar spine to bend, rotate, and twist
Slide 13
Vertebrae Anatomy For the three types of vertebrae there are different distinguishing features The openings of the vertebrae (foramen) form the vertebral canal which enclose the spinal cord
Slide 14
Vertebrae Anatomy Vertebral foramen: opening Vertebral arch: posterior margin of foramen Transverse process: site for muscle attachment Spinous process: Bump down your back Body: weight-bearing portion Lamina: roof of vertebral arch Pedicle: walls of vertebral arch
Slide 15
Cervical Vertebrae There are seven cervical vertebrae which are located in the neck. They are the smallest, and lightest vertebrae of the vertebral column.

Slide 17
Thoracic Vertebrae The rib cage of the chest is attached to the thoracic spine at each level. Gives a great deal of stability and support to the upper body. Limits the back's movement at the chest level.

Slide 19
Lumber Vertebrae There are 5 lumbar vertebrae located in the lower back. Receive the most stress and are the weight- bearing portion of the back. Allow movements such as flexion and extension and some lateral flexion.

Slide 21
Sacrum and Coccyx Sacrum: five fused vertebrae Protects reproductive and digestive organs Attaches axial to appendicular skeleton Extensive muscle attachment Coccyx: 3-5 fused vertebrae Attachment site for muscle that closes anal opening
Slide 22
Slide 23
Spinal Curves Curved to allow for weight distribution 2 primary curves: appear in late fetal development Thoracic Sacral 2 secondary curves: occur months after birth Cervical lumbar
Ribs and Sternum 12 pairs of ribs 7 pairs of true ribs Reach the anterior body wall and connect to the sternum by separate cartilage (costal cartilage) 8-12 are false ribs Do not attach directly to the sternum Costal cartilage of 8-10 fuses with 7 Last Two pairs = floating ribs No sternum connection
Slide 27
Slide 28
Sternum Manubrium: articulates with the clavicle Body Xiphoid process
