The Appendicular Skeleton 126 bones

Limbs (appendages)

Pectoral girdle (attaches arm to the axial skeleton)

Pelvic girdle (attaches leg to the axial skeleton)

The Pectoral (Shoulder) Girdle Composed of two bones

Clavicle - collarbone

Scapula – shoulder blade

Page 4: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

The Pectoral (Shoulder) Girdle These bones are very light and allow the

upper limb to have exceptionally free movement because:

1.Each pectoral girdle attaches to axial skeleton at only 1 point = sternoclavicular joint

2.The loose attachment of the scapula allows it to slide back & forth against the thorax

3.The glenoid cavity is shallow & the shoulder joint is poorly reinforced by ligaments

The Pectoral (Shoulder) Girdle Consists of 2 bones

1. Clavicle (collar bone) = slender, double curved bone

Attaches to manubrium of the sternum medially & to the scapula laterally

Acts as a brace to hold the arm away from the thorax & helps prevent shoulder dislocation

The Pectoral (Shoulder) Girdle2. Scapula (shoulder blade) = triangular

& flare when we move our arms posteriorly (“wings”)

Not directly attached to axial skeleton; held in place by trunk muscles

Flattened body w/ 2 processes:

Acromion process

Coracoid process

Page 8: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

The Pectoral (Shoulder) Girdle Acromion process = the enlarged end of the

spine of the scapula

Connects w/ the clavicle @ the acromioclavicular joint

Coracoid process = beaklike

Points over the shoulder & anchors some of the arm muscles

Suprascapular notch serves as a nerve passageway

Page 9: The Appendicular Skeleton

The Pectoral (Shoulder) Girdle Scapula has 3 borders & 3 angles:

Superior

Medial (vertebral) borders

Lateral (axillary)

Superior

Inferior Angles

Lateral

Bones of the Upper Limb (30) The arm is formed by

a single bone

Humerus

Rounded proximal end fits into glenoid cavity of scapula

Bones of the Upper Limb (30) Opposite of the

head – 2 bony processes = greater & lesser tubercles, sites of muscle attachment

Midpoint of shaft – deltoid tuberosity where the deltoid m. attaches

Figure 5.21a–b

Page 13: The Appendicular Skeleton

Bones of the Upper Limb (30) Radial groove

runs obliquely down the posterior shaft

Distal end – medial trochlea (looks like a spool) & lateral ball-like capitulum – both articulate w/ bones of forearm

Figure 5.21a–b

Page 14: The Appendicular Skeleton

Bones of the Upper Limb (30) Above the trochlea

anteriorly is a depression – coronoid fossa

On posterior surface is the olecranon fossa

Both are flanked by medial & lateral epicondyles

Figure 5.21a–b

Bones of the Upper Limb The forearm consists of

the radius and the ulna.

Radius is lateral when the arm is in the anatomical position (on the thumb side) & the ulna is medial

When the hand is rotated, the distal end of the radius crosses over & ends up medial to the ulna.

Figure 5.21c

Page 16: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Bones of the Upper Limb Radius & ulna

articulate @ small radioulnar joints

They are connected along their entire length by a flexible interosseous membrane

Both have a styloid process @ their distal end

Figure 5.21c

Bones of the Upper Limb Disc-shaped radial

head forms a joint w/ the capitulum of the humerus.

Below the head is the radial tuberosity where tendon of biceps m. attaches.

Figure 5.21c

Page 18: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Bones of the Upper Limb On the ulna’s

proximal end are the anterior coronoid process & the posterior olecranon process, which are separated by the trochlear notch.

These 2 processes grip the trochlea of the humerus in a pliers-like joint.

Figure 5.21c

Bones of the Upper Limb Hand consists of

carpals, metacarpals & phalanges

8 carpals arranged in 2 irregular rows of 4 bones each form the part of the hand called the carpus (wrist)

Bound together by ligaments that restrict movements between them. Figure 5.22

Page 20: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Bones of the Upper Limb Metacarpals form

the palm

Numbered 1 to 5 from the thumb to the pinky

Clenched fist – heads of the metacarpals = knuckles

Phalanges (14) are the finger bones (3 in each finger & 2 in the thumb)

Bones of the Upper Limb Carpals starting Left to

Right (pinky to thumb - both rows):

Joe took a Hamate and hit poor Pete in the Capitate, breaking it into a Trapezoid and Trapezium. He did it b/c he was Pisiform(d) Triquetral times. The Judge said he was Lunate and sent him to the Scaphoid.

The Bony Pelvis vs. the Pelvic Girdle Bony Pelvis

Composed of:

Sacrum

Coccyx

Coxal bones (coxae) or ossa coxae (Hip bones)

Pelvic Girdle

Coxae are composed of 3 pair of fused bones

Ilium

Ischium

Pubic bone

The Pelvic Girdle: Right Coxal Bone

Figure 5.23b

Page 25: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

The Pelvic Girdle Coxae are large, heavy & attached securely to

the axial skeleton.

Sockets that receive the femur are deep & heavily reinforced w/ ligaments.

Function = bearing weight; total wt. of upper body rests on pelvis.

Reproductive organs, bladder & part of large intestine lie within & are protected by pelvis.

Page 26: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

The Pelvic Girdle Each coxa is formed by the fusion of 3 bones:

1. Ilium (Large flaring bone - forms most of the coxa)

Connects posteriorly w/ sacrum @ the sacroiliac joint.

Alae - winglike portions of the ilia.

Iliac crest – upper edge of alae that ends anteriorly in the anterior superior iliac spine & posteriorly in the posterior superior iliac spine w/ small inferior spines located below these.

Page 27: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

The Pelvic Girdle2. Ischium (“sit down bone”)

Most inferior part of coxa.

Ischial tuberosity, a roughened area, receives body wt. when sitting.

Ischial spine, superior to the tuberosity, narrows the outlet through which the baby passes during childbirth.

Greater sciatic notch allows blood vessels & the large sciatic nerve to pass from the pelvis posteriorly into the thigh.

Page 28: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

The Pelvic Girdle3. Pubis or pubic bone

Most anterior part of the coxa.

Fusion of the rami of the pubis anteriorly & the ischium posteriorly forms a bar of bone enclosing the obturator foramen, an opening through which blood vessels & nerves pass into the anterior part of the thigh.

Pubic bones fuse anteriorly to form a cartilaginous joint called the pubic symphysis.

Page 29: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

The Pelvic Girdle The ilium,

ischium, & pubis fuse @ the deep socket called the acetabulum (“vinegar cup”); it receives the head of the femur.

Page 30: The Appendicular Skeleton

The Bony Pelvis Bony pelvis is divided

into 2 regions:

False pelvis, superior to the true pelvis, is the area medial to the flaring portions of the ilia.

True pelvis lies inferior to the flaring parts of the ilia & the pelvic brim.

Page 31: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

The Bony Pelvis Dimensions of the true

pelvis are important for childbirth – must be large enough for the head to pass.

Outlet is the inferior opening of the pelvis.

Inlet is the superior opening.

Page 32: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Differing Characteristics Between the Male and Female Pelvis Female inlet is larger

& more circular.

Female pelvis as a whole is shallower & the bones are lighter & thinner.

Female ilia flare more laterally.

Page 33: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Differing Characteristics Between the Male and Female Pelvis Female sacrum is

shorter & less curved.

Female ischial spines are shorter & farther apart; thus the outlet is larger.

Female pubic arch is more rounded because the angle of the pubic arch is greater.

Bones of the Lower Limbs Carry our total

body weight when standing = thicker & stronger

The thigh has one bone – Femur (thigh bone)

Figure 5.24a–b

Page 35: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Bones of the Lower Limbs Femur (thigh bone)

Heaviest, strongest bone in the body.

Proximal end has ball-like head, neck and greater & lesser trochanters. Trochanters are separated anteriorly by intertrochanteric line and posteriorly by intertrochanteric crest.

Figure 5.24a–b

Page 36: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Bones of the Lower Limbs Trochanters, inter.-

crest & gluteal tuberosity are sites for muscle attachment.

Slants medially as it runs downward to bring knees in line w/ body’s center of gravity. (more noticeable in females b/c of wider pelvis)

Figure 5.24a–b

Page 37: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Bones of the Lower Limbs Distally are the

lateral & medial condyles – articulate w/ tibia. (condyles separated by condylar fossa)

Anteriorly on distal end is the patellar surface – forms a joint w/ patella (kneecap)

Figure 5.24a–b

Page 38: The Appendicular Skeleton

Bones of the Lower Limbs The leg has two bones

– tibia and fibula

Connected by interosseous membrane

Figure 5.24c

Page 39: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Bones of the Lower Limbs Tibia (shinbone)

Larger & more medial

At proximal end – medial & lateral condyles (separated by intercondylar eminence) articlulate w/ distal end of femur to form knee joint.

Figure 5.24c

Page 40: The Appendicular Skeleton

Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Benjamin Cummings

Bones of the Lower Limbs Patellar ligament

attaches to tibial tuberosity (anter.)

Distally, a process called medial malleolus forms inner bulge of ankle.

Anterior surface has sharp ridge – anterior border (unprotected by muscle – so you can feel this)

Figure 5.24c

Page 41: The Appendicular Skeleton

Bones of the Lower Limbs Foot – composed of

tarsals, metatarsals & phalanges

Two important fxns.: supports body weight & serves as a lever allowing us to propel body forward when walking,etc.

Figure 5.25

Page 43: The Appendicular Skeleton

Bones of the Lower Limbs 7 Tarsal bones

Weight carried by the 2 largest tarsals:

calcaneus (heelbone) &

talus (lies b/n tibia & calcaneus)

Figure 5.25

Page 44: The Appendicular Skeleton

Bones of the Lower Limbs 5 metatarsals

form the sole

14 phalanges form the toes (each toe has 3, except the big toe)

Arches of the Foot Bones are arranged to form 3

strong arches:

2 longitudinal (medial & lateral), 1 transverse

Ligaments bind foot bones together

Tendons of the foot muscles help to hold bones in arched position but allow for “springiness” – weak arches are referred to as “fallen arches” or “flat feet”
