THE SKELETAL SYSTEM
![Page 2: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Functions of the Skeletal System
1. Movement: Muscles work on the foundation of the bones to allow for movement.
2. Support: The backbone is the main support center for the upper body.
3. Protection: The bones of your skull protect the brain.
4. Storage: Bones store minerals, such as calcium, for use by the body.
5. Blood Cell Formation: Red and white blood cells are formed by marrow.

Two Major Parts of Skeletal System Axial: supports the
central axis of the body; includes skull, vertebral column, ribcage.
Appendicular: consists of the bones of the arms, legs, pelvis, shoulder area
*THERE ARE 206 BONES IN AN ADULT SKELETON

What are bones? Bones: solid network of living cells and
protein fibers that are surrounded by deposits of calcium salts.
![Page 7: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Bone Structure Periosteum: tough layer of connective tissue
surrounding bone Compact bone: thick, dense layer of bone
containing Haversian canals – containing blood vessels
Spongy bone: strong layer found inside compact bone
Bone Marrow: soft tissue located inside bone cavities
![Page 8: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Types of Bone Marrow• Yellow Marrow – made up primarily of fat
cells• Red Marrow – produces red blood cells,
some white blood cells, and platelets
![Page 9: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Development of Bones The skeleton of an embryo is composed
almost entirely of cartilage Cartilage: connective tissues with cells that
are scattered in a network of protein fibers including collagen and elastin
Ossification: process of cartilage being replaced by bone
During adolescence/early adulthood, cartilage in growth plates are replaced by bone – stopping growth!

Joints Joint: place where one bone attaches to
another Depending on its type of movement, a
joint is classified as immovable, slightly movable, or freely movable
![Page 11: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Types of Joints Immovable: allow for no
movementEx. Skull
Slightly Movable: small amount of restricted movementEx. joint between
adjacent vertebrae
![Page 12: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Types of Joints Ball-and-Socket: Round end of one
bone fits snuggly into another Ex. Shoulder and Hip
![Page 13: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Types of Joints Hinge Joint: movement at joint occurs in
one direction, like a door Ex. Knee and Elbow
![Page 14: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Types of Joints Pivot Joint: bone resting atop another
bone permitting free movement Ex. Neck, Wrist, Ankle
![Page 15: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Types of Joints Saddle Joints: permit one bone to slide
in two directions Ex. knuckles
![Page 16: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Structure of Joints Ligaments: tough
connective tissue that connects bone to bone
Synovial Fluid: a substance that enables joints to slide over each other smoothly
![Page 17: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Skeletal System Disorders Arthritis: Inflamed/stiff
joints Osteoporosis: weakening of
bones, especially in women
![Page 18: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
THE MUSCULAR SYSTEM
![Page 19: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Muscular System More than 40% of the mass of a human
is muscle Muscular system includes large muscles
displayed by some athletes Muscular system also includes many
tiny muscles used to help regulate blood pressure, move food, and power every movement of the body
![Page 20: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Types of Muscle Tissue: Skeletal Usually attached to bones Responsible for voluntary movements:
dancing, walking, typing Referred to as striated muscle Controlled by the central nervous
system Consists of muscle fibers, connective
tissue, blood vessels, and nerves
![Page 21: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Skeletal Muscles Labeling

Types of Muscle Tissue: Smooth Usually not under voluntary control Found in walls of hallow structures:
stomach, blood vessels, intestines Can function without nervous system
stimulation
![Page 23: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Types of Muscle Tissue: Cardiac Found in the heart ONLY! Cells may have up to two nuclei Is not under control of the central
nervous system
![Page 24: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Muscle Tissue Makeup Myofibril: smaller structures that make
up a muscle; composed of two filamentsMyosin: the name of the protein that
composes the thick filamentActin: the name of the protein that
composes the thin filament
![Page 25: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Muscle Contraction A muscle contracts when the thin
filaments in the muscle fiber slide over the thick filaments
ATP is used to power muscle contractions
Large amounts of ATP are needed!
![Page 26: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Muscle and Bone Interactions Tendon: attaches bone
to muscle Origin: attachment of
muscle to immovable bone
Insertion: attachment to bone that moves when muscle contraction
Muscles move from insertion point to origin
![Page 27: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Exercise and Health Muscle tone: result of skeletal muscles
remaining in a state of partial contraction Regular exercise is important in
maintaining muscular strength Aerobic exercise causes the body
systems to become more efficient
![Page 28: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Muscle Pain Sprain: wrenching,
twisting, stretching injury to a ligament
Strain: injury to muscle or tendon – often caused by overuse
![Page 29: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Muscle Pain
Shin splints is pain resulting from damage to the muscles along the shin. Pain is felt in different areas, depending on which muscles are affected.
Shin splints
Shin splints represent an "overuse injury" and occur most commonly in runners.

THE INTEGUMENTARY SYSTEM
![Page 31: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Integumentary System Functions Barrier against infection and injury Regulates body temperature Removes waste products from the body Provides protection against ultraviolet
radiation from the sun
![Page 32: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Skin Serves as a gateway through which
sensations such as pressure, heat, cold, and pain are transmitted to the nervous system
Two main layers: epidermis, dermis Below the dermis is a layer of fat and
connective tissue to insulate the body
![Page 33: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Structure of Skin
![Page 34: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Skin: Epidermis Epidermis has two parts: outside portion is
made of dead cells, inside portion is made of living cells
As cells move from the inner layer towards the outer layer, they create keratin – a fibrous protein
Eventually the cells die and form a waterproof coating – skin
The outer layer of cells is shed every 4-5 weeks
![Page 35: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Skin: Epidermis Epidermis contains melanocytes – cells
that produce melanin Melanin protects skin from the damage
of UV rays Differences in skin color are due to the
differences in the amount of melanin produced
![Page 36: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Skin: Dermis Dermis contains collagen, blood
vessels, nerve endings, glands, smooth muscle, hair follicles
The vessels in the dermis help control body temperature: contracting and widening as needed
![Page 37: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Skin: Dermis Dermis contains two types of glands:
Sweat glands: produce perspiration; sweat contains salts, water, and other compounds; sweat helps get rid of waste
Sebaceous glands: produce an oily secretion called sebum; sebum helps keep the epidermis flexible and waterproof
![Page 38: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Skin Cancer Skin cancer = abnormal growth of cells
in the skin Excessive sun exposure can produce
skin cancer SPF 15 should be the minimum!!!
![Page 39: The Skeletal system](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568166de550346895ddb097a/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Hair and Nails Keratin forms the basic structure Hair
Functions: protect surface of the body from UV; prevent dirt/particles from entering body
Hair Follicles: tubelike pockets of epidermal cells that produce hair
NailsNail root: area of rapidly dividing
cells from which nails growGrow at a rate of 3mm per month
