Abduction
moving arms up (remove space)
Adduction
moving arms down (take space)
Appendicular Skeleton
Limbs and Girdle.
Axial skeleton
Skull and Spinal Column.
Bone Marrow
the soft core of the bone that is is the site of formation of red blood cells, certain white cells, and blood platelets.
Bones are
hard connective tissue, dynamic structure composed of living tissues.
Bones means
dried up.
Bones store
calcium, a mineral essential for the activity of nerve and muscle cells.
Cartilage are found in body parts that require
stiffness and flexibility.
Cartilage are more (to bone)
softer, more elastic, and more compressible.
Circumduction
baseball winding (shoulder)
Compact bone makes up
most of the bones in the arms and legs. (they bear the most weight)
Depression means
indents in the bone.
Doraflexion
pointing feet to the sky.
Elements in Bones
phosphorous, zinc, calcium, magnesium, flourince, and chlorine.
Eversion
Turning feet outward
Extension
extending arm
Fissure
narrow slit like opening
Flat bones are
sandwiches of spongy bones between two layers of compact bone.
Flat bones are like those of the
cranium and scapula
Flexion
flexing biceps
Foramen
Round or oval opening
Fossa
shallow basin
How many bones are in the human body
206 in the human body, making up 14% of body weight.
Inversion
Inverting foot (rolled ankles for sure)
Irregular bones are like those of the
face, vertebrae, and pelvis.
Joint depressions allow
blood vessels or nerves to pass through.
Ligament
BONE to BONE
Ligament serve to
hold structure together and keep them stable.
Long bones are
limbs ( longer than the width
Made up of
50% water and 50% organic and inorganic material.
Meatus
canal tube
Periosteum contains
nerves and blood vessels that branch into the bone.
Periosteum has
thin membrane.
Periosteum surrounds
the compact and spongy bone.
Projection means
growing out.
Pronation
joint movement (wrist up)
Rotation
only happens at neck
Sesamoids are embedded within
a muscle or tendon near joint surface.
Sesamoids function as a
pulley
Short bones are (examples)
wrists, ankle carpals, and tarsals.
Short bones have no _____
shaft
Sinus
cavity within bone filled with air and lined with mucous membrane
Spongy bones are found in
the bone of the pelvis, ribs, breastbone, vertebrae,skill and ends of arms and legs.
Spongy bones are internal to the
compact bone
Spongy bones are made
to bear stress from several directions.
Spongy bones look like
a honeycomb network called traveculae that acts as supporting beams.
Sulcus
groove or furrow, a shallow depression
Supination
joint movement(wrist down)
Tendon
MUSCLE to BONE
Tendons serve to
move the bone or structure
The larget sesamoid is the
patella
The musculoskeletal system
is an organ system that gives humans the ability to move.
The musculoskeletal system includes
muscles, bones, cartilage, and ligaments.
The structure of the compact bone are
osteons, long cylinders that act as weight bearing pillars.
The three layers of Bone
Periosteum, Compact, and Spongy.
Where can you find Cartilege
Ends of bones, tip of the nose, and the outer part of the ear.
