1 CHAPTER 6: THE SKELETAL SYSTEM By: Ashley Ambroise Ashley Hernandez Laura Alzate

2 FUNCTIONS OF THE SKELETON  Supports the body  The skeleton protects soft body part  The skeleton produces blood cells  The skeleton stores minerals and fats  The skeleton along with the muscles permits flexible body movement

3 TYPES OF BONE  Spongy Can be referred as cancellous bone, contains numerous bony bars and plates called trabeculae. Even though it is lighter than compact bone it is designed for strength.  Compact Can also be referred to as dense bone, it contains many cylinder shaped units called osteons. The osteocytes (bone cells) are in tiny chambers called lacunae that occur between concentric layers of matrix called lamellae. The matrix contains collagenous protein fibers and mineral deposits, primarily calcium and phosphorus salts.

4 CLASSIFICATION OF BONES  Long bones are longer than they are wide  Short bones are cube shaped; their length and widths are about equal  Flat bones are plate like and have a broad surfaces  Irregular bones have varied shapes with many places for connections with other bones  Round bones are circular

5 BONE GROWTH AND REPAIR Osteoprgenitor cells Unspecialized cells present in the inner portion of the periosteum, in the endosteum and in the central canal of compact bone Osteoblasts Bone forming cells derived from osteoprogenitor cells and are responsible for secreting by matrix characteristic of bone Osteocytes Mature cells derived from osteoblasts, once surrounded by the matrix they become the osteocytes in bone. Osteoclasts Thought to be derived from monocytes, a type of white blood cell present in red bone marrow. They perform bone resorption.

6 BONE DEVELOPMENT AND GROWTH  Ossification The formation of the bone The bones of the of the skeleton form during embryonic development in two distinctive ways

7 1: INTRAMEMBRANOUS OSSIFICATION  The bone develops between sheets of the fibrous connective tissue.

8 2: ENDOCHONDRAL OSSIFICATION  Most bones are formed by this process  Hyaline cartilage models which appear during fetal development, are replaced by bone as developing continues  During this process of the long bone the cartilage begins to break down in the center if the diaphusis which is now covered by a periosteum.

9 REMODELING OF THE BONES  In the adult, bone is continually being broken down and built up again  Adults need at least as much calcium in the diet as do actively growing children (1,000-1,500 mg daily)  Growth of the bone involve over 20 different known hormones other messenger chemicals. 3 of the most important hormones that regulates bone growth are parathyroid hormone, calcitonin and growth hormone.

10 BONE REPAIR  Hematoma- within six to 8 hours after a fracture blood escapes from ruptured blood vessels and forms a hematoma in the space between the broken bones

11  Fibrocartilaginous callus- tissue repair begins and the fibrocartilage fills the space between the ends of the broken bone for about three weeks

12  Bony Callus- osteoblasts produce trabeculae of spongy bone and convert the fibrocartilaginous callus to a bony callus that joins the broken bones together and lasts about three to four months

13  Remodeling- osteoblasts build new compact bone at the periphery, and the osteoclasts reabsorb the spongy bone, creating a new medullary cavity.

14 REPAIR OF A BROKEN BONE

15 OSTEOPOROSIS  a medical condition in which the bones become brittle and fragile from loss of tissue, typically as a result of hormonal changes, or deficiency of calcium or vitamin D.

16 AXIAL SKELETON  The axial skeleton lies in the midline of the body and consists of the skull, the hyoid bone, the vertebral column and the thoracic cage.

17 SKULL  The skull is formed by cranium and the facial bone. The cranium includes the frontal bone, two parietal bones, one occipital bone, two temporal bones, one sphenoid bone and one ethmoid bone  The facial bones include two maxillae, two palatine bones, two zygomatic bones, two lacrimal bones, two nasal bones, the vomer bone, two inferior nasal conchae, and the mandible.

21 THE HYOID BONE  U shaped bone that is located in the neck. It anchors the tongue and does not articulate with any other bone

22 VERTEBRAL COLUMN (SPINE)  The typical vertebra has a body, a vertebral arch surrounding there vertebral formen, and a spinous process. The first two vertebrae are the atlas and axis.  The vertebral column has four curvatures and contains the cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral and coccygeal vertebrae.  Cervical, thoracic and lumbar vertebrae are separated by intervertebral disks.

23

24 THE RIB CAGE  The rib cage contains the thoracic vertebrae, ribs and associated cartilages and the sternum

25

26

27 APPENDICULAR SKELETON  Consists of the bones of the pectoral girdle, upper limbs, pelvic girdle and lower limbs.

28 THE PECTORAL  The pectoral (shoulder) girdle contains two clavicles and two scapulae

29 THE UPPER LIMB  The upper limb contains the humorous, the radius, the ulna and the bones of the hand The carpals, the metacarpals and the phalanges

30 THE PELVIC GIRDLE  Contains two coxal bones as well as the sacrum and the coccyx. The female pelvis is generally wider and more shallow than the male pelvis

31

32 THE LOWER LIMB  The lower limb contains the femur, the patella, the tibia, the fibula, and the bones of the foot Tarsals, metatarsals and phalanges

33 JOINTS (ARTICULATIONS)  Joints are the regions of articulation between bones.  They are classified according ro their structure and or their degree of movement. Some joints are immovable and some are freely movable (synovial)  The different kinds of synovial joints are ball and socket, hinge, condyloid, pivot, gliding and saddle

34 JOINTS  Movements at joints are broadly classified as angular Flexion, extension, adduction, abduction  Classified as circular Circumduction, rotation, supination and pronation  Classified as Special Inversion, eversion, elevation, and depression

35 EFFECTS OF AGING  Two of the main effects of aging on the skeletal system are arthritis and osteoporosis

36 HOMEOSTASIS  The bones protect the internal organs  The rib cage protects the heart and lungs  The skull protects the brain  The vertebrae protects the spinal cord

37  The bones assist all phases of respiration  The rib cage assist the breathing process, and the red bone marrow produces the red blood cells that transport oxygen  The bones also store and release calcium.  Calcium ions play a major role in muscle contraction and nerve conduction  Calcium ions also help regulate cellular metabolism

38  The bones assist the lymphatic system and immunity  The red bone marrow produces not only the red blood cells but also the white blood cells  The bones assist in digestion. The jaw contains sockets for the teeth which chew food and a place of attachment for the muscles that move the jaw

39  The skeleton is necessary for locomotion  Locomotion is efficient in human beings because they have a jointed skeleton for the attachment of muscles that move bones.
