Skeletal system function |
- support. The lower extremities support the weight of the body. - support and protection to the soft organs. - posture - stores a number of minerals ( the most important; phosphorus, calcium) |
|
Skeletal system clasification |
Theyvare clasified according the size & shape. - long bones - short bones - flat bones - irregulars Section |
|
Section of the vertebral column |
Cervical ( C1-C7) Thoracic ( T1-T12) Lumbar ( L1-L5) |
|
Parts of the long bone |
-Epiphysis - Epiphyseal disc - Diaphysis - Medullary cavity - Periosteum |
|
Epiphyseal disc Also know as " the growth plate" |
Is a hyaline cartilage plate in the metaphysis at each end of a long bone. As long the cartilage continous to form the bone continous to lengthen. When this is ossified and fused the growth on length of the person stop. |
|
Types of joint |
- Immovable joint - slighly movable - freely movable ,"sinovial joint". |
|
Immovable joint |
In the skull |
|
Slightly movable |
Permitd limited movement such as flexion & extencion. Exsmple; spine. |
|
Freely movable " sinovial joint" |
Provide more flexibility & movement. Example; arms, legs |
|
Types of freely joint; |
- hinge ( like a hinge movement Example; the elbow & Knee.) - ball & socket joint. (Formed when the ball shape of a bone fits in the cup-shaped socket of the 2dn bone. - pivot joint. ( allow rotation around the lengt of a bone. Example; side to side mov. Of the head indicating NO. - saddle joint. Both bone's surface forme a saddle shape. One bone is saddle concave and the other saddle shape is convex. - gliding joint. Formed by the interaction of the flat surface of articulation bone. Example; the wrist ( intercarpal joint), ankle, vertebral column. - condyloid joint. An oval articulation of a bone fits in an oval depresion of the second bone. Example; the wrist, the metacarpophalanges. |
|
Type of movement |
- flexion - extension ( limbs extended out the body) - hyperextencion ( an excesive extension) - plantar flexion (the foot and toes flex downward toward the sole) - dorsification ( foot bending up) - adduction ( returning back to the midle line of the body) - abduction ( taking away, separate the limb from the middle line of the body) - supination ( the palm of the hands up) - pronation ( the palm of the hands down) - circumduction ( circular movement) |
|
Sutures Joing together the bones of the skull, looks much as a zipper. |
- Coronal suture( separates the frontal from the parietal) - lambdoidal suture( separtes the occipital from the parietals) - squamosal suture( separates the temporal from the rest) |
|
Fontanels "The soft spots" |
The unfused sutures in the baby skull. We can read the baby's pulse at the soft spots. Also is a fragile spot where the baby can be severely injured. |
|
Types of muscle |
- skeletal - smooth - cardiac |

Types of muscle |
- skeletal - smooth - cardiac |
|
Skeletal muscle |
- voluntary - stratied/ striped - produce movement, posture, & stabilize joints. Also produce considerable heat Therefore help maintain the body temperature. |

|
Smooth muscle " visceral muscle" |
- involuntary ( function automatically) - nonstriated - it tone the Blood vessels that helps mantain the blood presure. - the great stretching propierties allows the walls of the organs to expand to hold content. Example; Urinary Bladder, stomach & uterus. |

|
Cardiac muscle ( only in the heart) |
- involuntary stratied - it has intercalated disc ( promote the rapid conduction of the electrical signal throughout the heart) - has no capacity for regeneration. ( can not repair it self). |
