The Skeletal System
2
The skeletal system is made of tough bone tissue that supports the body and allows it to move. Some bones cover and protect vital organs, such as the heart and brain. Marrow within bones produces white and red blood cells. As a health care professional, it is important to know the parts of the skeleton, as well as diseases that may affect bone.

3
Match key terms with their correct meanings. Label a diagram of major bones in the body. Select from a list the functions of bones. Name the long, short, flat, and irregular bones of the body. Identify immovable, slightly movable, and freely movable joints of the body. Identify common disorders of the skeletal system. Label a diagram of four types of bone fractures. Explain why a health care worker must have a basic knowledge of the skeletal system and how it functions. Copyright (c) 2009 Pearson Education3

Made up of bone and other connective tissues (ligaments and cartilage) Functions of the bone: To serve as a framework for body, giving the body structure and support To protect internal structures To act as a storage area for calcium To produce blood cells To allow flexibility Copyright (c) 2009 Pearson Education4

Joints are the point where two bones meet: p. 335 Immovable joints: cranium Slightly movable joints: vertebral discs, symphysis pubis, sacroiliac joints Freely movable joints: ex. Shoulder, knees, ankles, elbows, wrists, fingers Ligaments connect to bone and hold bones together Copyright (c) 2009 Pearson Education14

16
arthritis - inflammation of the joints degenerative - change in the structure of the joint disease joints with aging fracture - break in a bone simple fracture - bone is broken, and the skin is not open around the break compound fracture – bone is broken, and the skin is penetrated by the bone
17
comminuted fracture – bone breaks into pieces, and bone fragments are lodged in the surrounding tissue greenstick fracture - bone is bent and splits, causing an incomplete break
18
kyphosis - abnormal posterior curve of the spine(hunchback) lordosis - excessive concave (inward) curve of the spine (swayback) osteomyelitis - bone infection, usually caused by a bloodborne pathogen osteoporosis - condition in which bones become full of tiny holes, causing them to break easily Common in women after menopause rickets - condition in which bones are soft because they do not calcify Often caused by a lack of calcium and phosphorus in the diet scoliosis - lateral (to the side) curve of the spine
19
arthrodesis - surgical fixation of a joint caudocephalad - from tail or coccyx to head cephalalgia - pain in the head; headache cephalocentesis - surgical puncture of the head cerebrootomy - incision into the brain chondroma - tumor consisting of cartilage costochondral - pertaining to a rib and its cartilage craniomalacia - softening of the skull bones craniosclerosis - thickening of the skull bones dactyledema - excess fluid in the fingers and toes dactylology - representing words by signs made with the fingers (sign language)
20
dactylus - toe or finger iliotibial - pertaining to the ileum and tibia lumbosacral - pertaining to the lumbar vertebrae and the sacrum myelitis - inflammation of the spinal cord or bone marrow osteomalacia - softening of the bones osteoplasty - plastic repair of the bone osteosarcoma - malignant tumor of the bone osteotomy- incision into the bone phalanx - finger or toe bone prosthesis - artificial organ or part of the body

The Muscular System
23
The muscles in your body help you to move your arms and legs. They also help to move food, blood, and other materials around your body. In this section, you will learn about the types of muscle, their functions, and their movements. You will review the different muscles of the muscular system and learn disorders related to muscles. Copyright (c) 2009 Pearson Education23
24
Match key terms with their correct meanings. Explain the difference between muscle and bone functions. List three major functions of the muscles. Match common disorders of the muscular system with their descriptions. Match basic muscle movements to their correct names. Label a diagram of the muscular system. Describe how muscles provide support and movement. Explain why the health care worker’s understanding of the muscular system is important. Copyright (c) 2009 Pearson Education24
25
The main functions of muscles are to: Produce heat Produce movement Maintain posture Types of muscle include: Voluntary muscles – contract when you want to move Involuntary muscles – contract automatically Muscle tissues include: Skeletal muscles or striated muscles – voluntary muscles Visceral muscles or smooth muscles Cardiac muscle Copyright (c) 2009 Pearson Education25

Adduct Moving a body part toward the midline Abduct Moving a body part away from the midline Extend Increase the angle of the muscle Flex Decreases the angle of the muscle Rotate Turing a body part on its axis Supination and pronation Rotation movement Copyright (c) 2009 Pearson Education28
29
fibrositis - inflammation of connective tissue muscle strain - trauma to the muscle, usually caused by a violent contraction muscular dystrophy - deterioration of muscle tissue that progresses over time myalgia - muscle pain torn muscle - tear of the muscle tissue, usually caused by extreme trauma to the muscle
30
myasthenia - muscle weakness myocardium - heart muscle or cardiac muscle myocele - muscular protrusion (bulge)through a muscle myocelialgia - pain of the abdominal muscle myogenic - beginning with muscle myography - record of muscle contractions myoid - resembling muscle myoma - tumor containing muscle tissue myomelanosis - abnormal darkening of muscle tissue
31
myoparesis - weakness or partial paralysis of a muscle myosclerosis - hardening of a muscle myothermic - pertaining to a rise in muscle temperature tenorrhaphy - suturing of a tendon tenositis - inflammation of a tendon
