8. Functions of Bones  Early animals lived in the ocean.  Ocean(salt water) has minerals that animals need to out carry life functions.  To move into fresh water or onto land, animals needed a way to store the minerals they need.  A skeleton was a method of storing minerals allowing animals to move into freshwater and onto land.

9. Bones of the Human Body Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  The skeleton has 206 bones  Two basic types of bone tissue  Compact bone  Homogeneous  Spongy bone  Small needle-like pieces of bone  Many open spaces Figure 5.2b

23. Changes in the Human Skeleton Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  In embryos, the skeleton is primarily hyaline cartilage  During development, much of this cartilage is replaced by bone  Cartilage remains in isolated areas  Bridge of the nose  Parts of ribs  Joints

24. Useless Bone Fun Fact  How old is your skeleton?  How old is your parent’s skeleton?  How old is your grandparent's skeleton?

26. Types of Bone Cells  Osteocytes  Mature bone cells  Osteoblasts  Bone-forming cells  Osteoclasts  Bone-destroying cells  Break down bone matrix for remodeling and release of calcium  Bone remodeling is a process by both osteoblasts and osteoclasts  Diet and weight carrying – Use it or lose it.

27. Joints Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings  Articulations of bones  Functions of joints  Hold bones together  Allow for mobility  Ways joints are classified  Functionally  Structurally
