  1. Skeletal System Riley Embler Zoë Headley Amber Arneson Madison Miller

  2. Function • Supports muscle structure • Supports the bodies weight • Protects vital organs (hearts, lungs, reproductive system, etc.) • Stores nutrients within the marrow (calcium, fat cells, red/white blood cells)

  3. Skeletal Regions • Axial • Skull • Vertebral column • Thoracic region Axial Skeleton (purple) • Two parts: Axial and Appendicular • Appendicular • The shoulder girdle: • Clavicle, scapula • The Upper Extremities: • Humerus, radius and ulna, carpals, metacarpals and phalanges • The Pelvic Girdle: • Coxal bones (Ilium, ischuim, pubis) Appendicular Skeleton (pink)

  4. Protection • Cranium (skull)- protects and houses the brain. • Rib Cage – Protects the heart, lungs, liver, small intestates, pancreas, ext. • Pelvis– Protects bladder and reproductive organs. • Spine – Protects and supports the spinal cord. • Scapular– Protects posterior heart and lungs.

  5. Joints • Joints-A point at which parts of an artificial structure are joined. They make the skeleton flexible — without them, movement would be impossible. • Joint types: • Ball & Socket (hip and fibular) • Pivot (C1 & C2, This is the Cervical Vertebrae) • Hinge (cubital) • Plane (foot) • Ellipsoid (wrist) • Saddle (thumb and clavicle)

  6. Joints Plane Ball and Socket Hinge Saddle Ellipsoid Pivot

  7. Muscle Support/Body Weight Support • Skeletal muscles: muscles that are attached to the bones. 1)Origin- attachment of muscle to the immobile part of the bones. 2) Insertion- is the attachment to the mobile part of the bone. • Movement of the body is based on a principle of levers. • 3 types of levers: • First Lever • Secondary Lever • Third Lever. • Lever: Is your bones • Fulcrum: Your joints are the pivot point for the lever (bone). • Force: Is the Muscle Contractions.

  9. Marrow • Marrow is a soft tissue that produces Red and white blood cells and is located inside the bones. • Two types of bone marrow – Red (Medulla Ossium Rubra) and Yellow (Medulla Ossium Flava) • Red Marrow Function: • Creates Red blood cells, platelets, and some white blood cells. • Yellow Marrow Function: • Fatty marrow, produces cartilage and fat, used as a reserved energy source.

  10. Nutrient Storage • Calcium-It helps with clotting of blood, nerve electrical impulses and contraction of muscles. • Calcium is stored as Hydroxapatite Crystals. • Cells that regulate Calcium: • Osteoblasts • Osteoclasts

  11. Bone Diseases and Disorders • Brittle Bone– OsteogenesisImperfecta (OI); rare inherited disorder; caused by low production of collagen. • Arthritis– A break-down of the smooth surface between bones; it irritates the sensitive bones by rubbing it away. • Scoliosis – disorder of the backbone; generally, unevenly distributed weight causes the spinal column to overcompensate for the imbalance; causes spine to develop an “S” shape

  12. Bone Diseases and Disorders(Examples) Brittle Bone Scoliosis Arthritis

  13. Osteoporosis • Disease of the bones • Maximum bone density not reached during adolescence • More likely to develop later on in life • Causes bones to become fragile, weak and prone to fracture • Most common medical condition for women over the age of 50 • Environmental factors Insufficient calcium Lack of Exercise Smoking Excessive consumption of alcohol

  14. Interesting Facts • Our bone is six times stronger than steel (proportionately) • The smallest bone is in the ear, it’s called the Stapes. • 206 bones in human body - 52 of them are in both feet • Humans and giraffes have the same number of bones in their necks. • Babies have 305 bones - Adults have 206

  15. Interesting facts continued… •The hyoid bone is the only bone in the body not connected to any other bone • When you lift a glass of milk and take a sip, more than 30 joints move in your fingers, wrists, arm and shoulder. •Milk accounts for approximately 60% of a teens calcium intake • High calcium foods Sardines Salmon Broccoli Cooked Spinach Corn Tortillas Orange Juice
