3.  Content Objective: The students will be able to differentiate various fractures, joints, and functions of the skeletal system by completing notes.  Language Objective: The students will be able to apply the definition of the prefix “osteo” to various words in order to discover their meaning.

11.  Calcium and phosphorus  Energy Fats (lipids) are stored in the adipose cells of the yellow marrow  Releases minerals into the blood as needed

12.  What does movement mean?  Definition – Actions or activities as of a person

13.  Skeletal bones held by ligaments  Muscles are attached to bones through tendons The muscular and skeletal system work together to create movement and are called the musculoskeletal system.  When muscles contract the skeletal system moves  The shape of the bones affect movement

14.  Osteo - Prefix meaning of or relating to the bone. Examples:  Osteoclast – A cell that breaks down bone  Osteoblast – A cell that makes bone  Osteon – Basic central structural component of compact bone

15.  The natural process of bone formation.  The hardening of muscular tissue into a boney substance.

16.  Where do we have joints in our skeletal system? Discuss with the person sitting next to you  What types of joints have you already learned about? Discuss with the person behind you

17.  Definition of joints – The location at which bones connect. Joints are constructed at most locations to allow movement  Types of Joints Ball and Socket Hinge Joint Gliding Joint Saddle Joint Pivot Joint

18.  Allows for the greatest freedom of movement  Structure – Bone with a spherical end and a bone with a cup-like socket  Only ball and socket joints in the body: Shoulder (where the humerus meets the scapula and clavicle) Hip (where the femur meets the pelvis)  Move your shoulder through all the range of motion it is capable of

19.  Only allows forward and backward motion Example: Door  Examples in the Body: Elbow Knee Ankle Fingers  Try moving your elbow through its range of motion

20.  Bones that meet at a flat or nearly flat articular surfaces Allow the joints to slide past one another in any direction  Examples: Carpals in wrist Tarsals in ankle Try moving your hand

22.  Osteoporosis  Rickets Bowed-Legs  Fractures Complete Compound Stress  Osteoarthritis

23.  Causes bones to become weak and brittle Brittle to the point that a simple fall, cough or bending over can cause a fracture Most frequent injures occur in the hip, wrist or spine  Caused when the creation of bone does not keep up with absorption of bone Frequently Occurs in Older Women past Menopause

24.  Caused by lack of Vitamin D, calcium or phosphate causing the weakening and softening of bones Rickets can be caused by your genes, kidney disorder, disorders of the liver Rare in the United States but can occur when children are rapidly growing

25.  Common in toddler  Looks Like – When feet together there is a distinct space between knees and lower legs  Cause – Either one or both legs curve outward The bowing is typically corrected by age 3 or 4

26. Occur when a physical force exerted on a bone is stronger than the bone

27.  The bone is fractured completely across

28.  Open fracture where there is a break in the skin around the bone The outside air, dirt must be able to get to the fracture for it to be a compound

29.  Tiny cracks in the bones  Caused by repetitive application of force Typically overuse injury Example: Runners get stress fractures in tibia Also caused from osteoporosis

30.  Most common form of arthritis Wear and tear arthritis  Cause – Protective cartilage on the ends of bones wears down over time Most Common: Hands, neck, knees, hips, lower back
