Types of Cells
Even though cells perform different jobs or functions in the body, they all have the same structure.
MuscleCells
Red Blood Cells
Nerve Cells
Cells Continued….
Bone Cells: calcify to become bones.
Muscle Cells: form muscles
Nerve Cells: send messages
Red Blood Cells: carry oxygen
White Blood Cells: kill germs
Remember these are just a few examples!!
The Skeletal System
The skeletal system protects your internal organs and helps you move.
skeletal system The framework of bones and other tissues that supports the body
The 206 bones in your body make blood cells and store calcium and other minerals.
The Skeletal System
Some joints allow bones to move, while others never move but protect organs instead.
joints The places where two or more bones meet
The Skeletal System
Three types of connecting tissue are tendons, ligaments, and cartilage.
tendons A type of connecting tissue that joins muscles to bones and muscles to muscles
ligaments A type of connecting tissue that holds bones to other bones at the joint
cartilage A strong, flexible tissue that allows joints to move easily, cushions bones, and supports soft tissues
Ligaments and Tendons
The Muscular System
The three main types of muscles that make up the muscular system are skeletal, smooth, and cardiac.
muscular system Tissues that move parts of the body and control the organs
