3 Introduction All living things have the ability to move without outside help. This makes them different from non-living things that only move if they are pushed or pulled by something else e.g. a stone that is thrown, a stream that flows, paper blowing about. No outside force has to ‘push-start’ growth of a green shoot towards sunlight or a dog to scratch, or YOU to move…. as you are doing right now! All these things are living, so they move by themselves!

4 Objectives You should be able to:
state the difference between movement and locomotion. explain the importance of movement to plants. describe the different types of movements in plants. distinguish between growth movements in plants and movements in animals.

5 What is Movement? Movement is rhythmical progression, resulting in a change of pace, posture, position or place. All living organisms show movement of one kind or another. They have the innate ability to move substances from one part of their body to another - called internal movement. Many living organisms also show external movement as well -- they can move various body parts, or move their entire body from place to place, i.e. locomotion.

8 Movement in Plants Unlike many animals, plant movement is non- locomotory. Movement is confined to specific plant parts (e.g.stems/roots) and is not always obvious because it is very slow. Plant movements are often related to growth. Watch the video from this website:

9 Movement in Plants Tropisms are directional growth responses to an external, unilateral stimulus. Tropic growth movements cannot be reversed! Tropic growth movements are caused by chemicals called auxins that are produced in stem and root tips and cause selective cell growth and elongation which will result in either overall growth or growth curvatures of plant parts affected by the auxins.

10 Types of Tropisms Positive or negative growth movements occur in response to various stimuli as follows: chemotropism – chemicals geo- or gravi -tropism – gravity hydrotropism – water phototropism – light thigmotropism – touch

11 Types of Tropisms Shoots grow upwards, whatever the orientation of the rest of the plant. Positive phototropism = positive upward growth movement in response to light. Negative gravitropism or geotropism = negative growth movement in response to the downward pull of gravity. What + ve and/or – ve growth movement is this stem showing?

12 Types of Tropisms Roots normally grow downwards, in spite of the orientation of the rest of the plant. Positive gravitropism or geotropism = positive downward growth in response to gravity. Negative phototropism = negative growth response to light. Click on ‘Cool Corn Phototropism’ then ‘Coleus Shoot Gravitropism’ at the website:

13 Nastic Plant Movements
Plant movement can also be a non-directional response to a stimulus, called a nastic movement. Plant parts (e.g. leaves and leaf structures, flowers, fruits) respond to touch, light, temperature changes and humidity e.g. by opening/closing/folding or bursting to disperse seeds etc.

14 Nastic Movements Visit these websites and click open and watch examples of plants showing nastic movements. (“Sleep Movements” of the Morning glory flowers)

15 Movement in Plants vs Animals
Like plants, invertebrate animals such as sea anemones, adult sponges and corals, move body parts only and are non- locomotory. These movements are somewhat like nastic movements in plants since they are temporary and reversible. For example, below left -sea anemones can open/close tentacles.

16 Movement in Plants vs Animals
Like plants, many invertebrates move in response to light, moisture, chemicals, temperature changes and, additionally, to magnetic and electrical fields. Their movement differs from that of plants, because the animal’s entire body moves about from place to place = locomotion. Such animals move about with the aid of cilia, flagella, false ‘legs/feet’, hydrostatic pressure against their body wall, or they may have an exoskeleton that enables muscle attachment for locomotion.

17 MOVEMENT IN HIGHER ANIMALS
Module 3 Unit 9 Lesson 2

18 Introduction If we want to now if an organism is a living animal, we usually observe it or prod it to see if it moves. This is because, in response to stimuli, all animals move various body parts and many can also carry on locomotion. In animals, movement and locomotion usually involves the action of muscles (contractile tissue).

19 Objectives You should be able to: discuss the importance of locomotion in animals. describe movement in animals. differentiate between growth movements in plants and locomotion in animals.

20 Importance of Locomotion
Locomotion is a common response to all kinds of stimuli. Animals to: move about futurity.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/prey.jpg Protect themselves from damage from pressure, pain, or sudden temperature changes Find a mate and to reproduce Escape danger

21 Why else would the ability to move about be important to animals?
Animals move about to … Seek and capture food Why else would the ability to move about be important to animals? CHECK To seek shelter, a suitable habitat/climate; To avoid competition for food/water, living space etc.

22 Muscles move you! Muscles help animals such as dogs, whales, spiders, snakes, worms, flies and humans to move from place to place. Muscles also move body parts and things inside the animal’s body. In fact, no animal could move anything inside or outside of its body if there were no muscles. Without muscles, you wouldn't be alive for very long! Muscles move you from place to place! Adapted from: do muscles do? Adapted from>> do muscles do?

23 Types of Muscles Humans and other mammals have different types of muscles in their body: Involuntary muscle: smooth muscle – found in inner organs e.g. arteries, intestines, bladder cardiac muscle – found only in the heart Voluntary muscle: skeletal muscle – attached to the skeleton Read about muscles at this website: ndcardiac/heart_beat.shtml

24 Movement in ‘Higher’ Animals
Vertebrate animals have a skeleton. They carry out both movement and locomotion, often using specialized organs e.g. fins, wings, arms/legs, tails and their body muscles, to get from place to place. The type of body parts used are modified to suit the medium through or in which the animal normally moves. Many vertebrates have several methods of locomotion, all relying on the skeleton.

25 THE HUMAN SKELETON Module 3 Unit 9 Lesson 3
Around

26 Objectives You should be able to:
list the functions of the human skeleton. identify and name the parts of the human skeleton. distinguish between cervical, thoracic and lumbar vertebrae. identify bones of a fore/hind limb.

27 The Skeleton Vertebrates have a jointed skeleton inside their bodies. It carries out these functions: provides surfaces for muscle attachment, and has joints and so enables movement and locomotion. acts as a framework, gives shape and supports the softer parts of the body. protects delicate internal organs. acts as a store for minerals and fats. in humans, produces blood cells. Visit this website to learn about various bones of the skeleton >> (Interactive skeleton – Click the labels)

28 Types of Bones in the Human Skeleton
The adult human skeleton consists of 206 bones. Long bone - femur Flat bone - scapula Short bones - FEMUR FLAT BONE IRREGULAR BONE SHORT BONES Irregular bone - vertebrae

29 skull, backbone, rib cage and breastbone
The Human Skeleton The adult human skeleton is divided into: - axial skeleton (180 bones) - appendicular skeleton (26 bones), comprising the limbs and limb girdles. Name the parts of the axial skeleton, shown on the next slide. CHECK skull, backbone, rib cage and breastbone

30 Human Axial Skeleton Along body axis

31 A look at the Spine Look at the image of the vertebral column on the right. Watch the video from ideos/humanbody/spine.html State the number of bones in each of the regions and how the bones are connected to each other.

32 Parts of a Vertebra Much of the variety in movement shown by humans is due to the structure of the vertebral column. Look at the parts of a ‘typical’ vertebra. Learn to draw and annotate a ‘typical’ vertebra. (Lumbar vertebra)

33 Comparing Vertebrae View the videos at the websites below.
Discuss and use the variations in structure to distinguish cervical, thoracic and lumbar vertebrae. Look at and draw actual vertebrae! (Cervical, Thoracic vertebra and ribs – 5:04 mins. long) (Lumbar vertebra and Sacrum/Coccyx – 3:38 mins. long) Now, test yourself. Turn off the sound and name the parts shown by the arrows. To check your answers, replay with sound turned on!

34 Appendicular Skeleton
Can you name the bones of this part of the skeleton? Go to this website to learn the bones of the appendicular skeleton v=jWyUwv8mfMo&feature=relat ed How does the appendicular skeleton relate to the axial skeleton? Talk about it with your teacher START ANIMATION

35 Activity: Looking at long bones
Look at the diagram to see how the Humerus and other long bones of the fore arm relate to the shoulder girdle. Examine actual bones and find the same parts. Check the parts of these long bones at this website sGhW9A&feature=related (Watch Humerus from 0:00 – 2: 28 mins; Ulna from 2:29 – 3:23; articulation of ulna with Humerus- up tp 4:25; and Radius from 4:25 – 5:02 mins.) Learn to draw, label and annotate each bone.

36 Click here to try an activity.
Did You Know? The radius is on the lateral (thumb) side. The radius is bigger and longer than the ulna which is on the inside or medial side, closest to the body. Your elbow is actually the tip of the ulna, called the olecranon process. Click here to try an activity. Hold your right forearm with your left hand. Then rotate your right wrist -- palm up and then palm down. What do you feel? CHECK You will feel the radius and ulna bones in your right arm twisting and rotating.

38 Bones and Joints Module 3 Unit 9 Lesson 4

39 Introduction The bones of the human skeleton are rigid structures which cannot bend to allow movement. So, voluntary or skeletal muscles are attached to the rigid bones. To enable the functions of movement and locomotion, two or more bones of the skeleton have points of articulation called joints.

40 Objectives You should be able to:
list the types of joints present in the human body. describe the action at moveable joints. use diagrams to describe the behaviours of antagonistic muscles.

41 Joints Joints occur where two or more bones articulate with each other. Some joints allow free movement; some allow partial movement, some are fused or fixed and immoveable (sutures). Voluntary muscles act together to cause movement at some joints. Discuss the types of moveable joints shown on the next slide. Arrows show direction of movement at each joint. Silhouettes from>>

42 Types of Joints static.howstuffworks.com/gif/bones-joints.gif

43 Movement at Joints Visit the following websites to see the kinds of movement at various joints: nts/hinge_joint.shtml nts/slightly_movable_joint.shtml nts/ball_and_socket_joint.shtml Click open each type of joint, listed at left webpage, then click the control arrows to see how that joint moves. Discuss the structure of moveable joints using the diagram on the next slide.

44 Structure of Moveable Joints

45 A Moveable Joint A moveable joint contains synovial fluid, which is a thick, stringy fluid found in the joint cavity. The fluid reduces friction between the articular cartilage and other tissues in the joint, by lubricating and cushioning them during movement when it is squeezed out mechanically to maintain a layer of fluid on the cartilage surface.

46 Voluntary Muscles Some muscles are known as "voluntary" -- that is, they only work when you specifically ‘tell’ them to. All the muscles that are attached to the skeleton are voluntary (or skeletal) muscles. Can you think of some movements that involve voluntary muscles? Read about skeletal muscles at this website: pairs/biceps_animation.shtml CHECK e.g. clapping, lifting your leg/arm, nodding, dancing, writing and so on.

47 How do Voluntary Muscles Work?
To cause movement, muscles contract and then relax. It is really the individual cells that make up voluntary muscles that contract and shorten and then relax back to their original size. There are two sets of voluntary or skeletal muscles attached to most of your bones. They work in antagonistic pairs – when one contracts, the other is relaxed and vice versa. Tendons attach muscles to the bones; muscles contract, pull on the bones and so they move.

48 Activity Watch the three short videos on joints at this website:
The video shows how muscles work with bones across a joint.
