Tissues of the Skeletal System

• Bone.
• Compact bone is highly organized and composed of
  tubular osteons.
• Osteocytes lie in lacunae, tiny chambers arranged
  in concentric circles around a central canal.
• Spongy bone contains numerous plates (trabeculae)
  separated by unequal spaces.
• Spaces are often filled with red bone marrow.

4
Tissues of the Skeletal System

• Cartilage
• Cartilage is flexible because the gel-like matrix
  contains collagenous and elastic fibers.
• Three types differ according to type and
  arrangement of fibers.
• Hyaline - Firm and flexible.
• Fibrocartilage - Strong.
• Elastic - Flexible.

5
Tissues of the Skeletal System

• Fibrous Connective Tissue
• Made of rows of fibroblasts separated by bundles
  of collagenous fibers.
• Makes up ligaments (connect bone to bone) and
  tendons (connect muscles to bones at joints).

Bone Growth and Repair

• Several different types of cells are involved in
  bone growth and repair.
• Osteoprogenitor cells.
• Osteoblasts.
• Osteocytes.
• Osteoclasts.

8
Bone Development and Growth

• Ossification refers to bone formation.
• Intramembranous ossification - Bones develop
  between sheets of fibrous tissue.
• Endochondral ossification - Cartilage breaks down
  in the center of the diaphysis.
• After birth, the ends of developing bones
  continue to grow, but secondary ossification
  centers soon appear.
• Growth plate remains between primary and
  secondary ossification centers.

Endochondral Ossification
10
Remodeling of Bones

• Osteoclasts derived from monocytes in red bone
  marrow break down bone, remove worn cells, and
  assist in depositing calcium in the blood.
• Osteoblasts take calcium from blood and form new
  bone.

11
Bone Repair

• Fracture repair takes place over a span of
  several months in a series of four steps.
• Hematoma.
• Fibrocartilaginous callus.
• Bony callus.
• Remodeling.
• Naming of a fracture indicates what kind of break
  occurred.

12
Bone Fracture and Repair
13
Bones of the Skeleton

• Skeletal Functions.
• Support body.
• Protect soft body parts.
• Produce blood cells.
• Store minerals and fat.
• Permit flexible body movement.

14
Bone Classification

• Bones are classified according to their shape,
  and whether they occur in the axial skeleton or
  the appendicular skeleton.
• Axial - Midline.
• Appendicular - Limbs and their girdles.

15
The Axial Skeleton

• The axial skeleton lies in the midline of the
  body and consists of
• Skull.
• Hyoid bone.
• Vertebral column.
• Rib cage.

16
The Skull

• The skull is formed by the cranium and the facial
  bones.
• The cranium contain eight bones.
• Frontal bone
• Two parietal bones.
• Occipital bone.
• Two temporal bones.
• Sphenoid bone.
• Ethmoid bone.

17
Bones of the Skull
18
The Facial Bones

• The most prominent facial bones are the mandible,
  maxillae, zygomatic bones, and nasal bones.
• Mandible is the movable, lower jaw.
• Maxillae form upper jaw.
• Zygomatic bones form cheek prominence.
• Nasal bones form the bridge of the nose.

19
Bones of the Face
20
Hyoid Bone

• The hyoid bone is not part of the skull, but is
  part of the axial skeleton.
• Only bone that does not articulate with another
  bone.

21
The Vertebral Column

• Column made of thirty-three vertebrae.
• Spinal cord passes through the vertebral canal
  and gives off spinal nerves.
• Vertebrae named according to location.
• Cervical.
• Thoracic.
• Lumbar.
• Sacrum.
• Coccyx.

22
The Vertebral Column

• Intervertebral disks composed of fibrocartilage
  are found between the vertebrae and provide
  padding to absorb shock caused by movements and
  also provide flexibility of the column.

24
The Rib Cage

• The rib cage is composed of the thoracic
  vertebrae, ribs and associated cartilage, and the
  sternum.
• Twelve pairs of ribs.
• All connect to thoracic vertebrae in back.
• Upper seven pairs (true ribs) connect to sternum
  by costal cartilage.
• Next three pairs (false ribs) attach to sternum
  by common cartilage.
• Last two pairs (floating ribs)do not attach to
  sternum.

25
Thoracic Vertebrae and Rib Cage
26
The Appendicular Skeleton

• The appendicular skeleton consists of bones
  within the pectoral and pelvic girdles and their
  attached limbs.
• The pectoral girdle and upper limb (arm) are
  specialized for flexibility.

27
Bones of Pectoral Girdle and Arm
28
The Appendicular Skeleton

• The Pelvic Girdle and Lower Limb.
• The pelvis is a basin composed of the pelvic
  girdle, sacrum, and coccyx.
• Pelvis bears the weight of the body, protects
  organs within the pelvic cavity, and serves as
  attachment point for the legs.
• Femur is the longest and strongest bone in the
  body.

29
Bones of the Lower Limb
30
Articulations

• Bones are joined at joints.
• Cartilaginous joints are connected by hyaline
  cartilage.
• Synovial joints separate the bones by a cavity.
• Hinge.
• Ball-and-socket.

31
Knee Joint
32
Movements Permitted by Synovial Joints

• Angular Movements.
• Flexion - Decreases joint angle.
• Extension - Increases joint angle.
• Adduction - Movement towards midline.
• Abduction - Movement away from midline.

33
Movements Permitted by Synovial Joints

• Circular Movements.
• Rotation - Movement around axis.
• Supination - Rotation with palm upward.
• Circumduction - Movement in wide circle.
• Special Movements.
• Inversion (sole inward) and eversion (sole
  outward).
• Elevation (lifting up) and depression (moving
  down).

34
Joint Movements
35
Bone Homeostasis

• Rib cage enables oxygen to enter bloodstream.
• Red bone marrow produces red and white blood
  cells.
• Jaw and teeth chew food, aiding digestion.
• Bones protect internal organs.
• Calcium storage.
• Efficient locomotion.

36
