Classification of Bones

• Short bone cube shaped, i.e. carpus and tarsus
• Flat bone plate of bone, i.e. scapula, rib,
  skull
• Irregular bone complex shaped, i.e. vertebrae
• Sesamoid small, seed-shaped bone, i.e. proximal
  and distal sesamoids, patella
• Long bone bone is longer that it is wide, i.e.
  femur, tibia, humerus, etc.

Types of Muscles
Muscles are contractile organs responsible for
the voluntary and involuntary movements of
animals.

• Skeletal muscle allows for all voluntary
  movement, appears to be striated when looked at
  under a microscope.
• Cardiac muscle controls the involuntary beating
  of the heart, appears striated under a
  microscope.
• Smooth muscle responsible for all other
  involuntary movement, such as breathing,
  digestion, peristalsis, blinking, etc.
