6 Main Functions of the Skeletal System: Abbreviated
p,s,m,mh,h,ts
P
protection
S
support
M
movement
MH
mineral homeostasis
H
hematopoiesis
TS
triglyceride storage
Each part of a long bone
diaphysis, metaphysis, epiphysis
Diaphysis
The shaft, main bone
Metaphysis
Between di and epi, contains the epipheseal plate.
Epiphysis
red bone marrow, ends of a long bone.
Why bone tissue is classified as a connective tissue.
because of the periosteum
Periosteum
Outer Membrane
Describe the cellular composition of bone tissue
osteoblasts, osteoclasts, osteocytes, and osteoprogenitor cells.
Osteoblasts
build bone
Osteoclasts
create bone
osteocytes
fully mature bone cells
Osteoprogenitor
stem cell
Spongy Bone
lightweight, irregular + flat bones, protects red bone marrow
Compact Bone
protection and support, external bone layer
Explain how bone grows in length.
bone material grows on diaphysis side of the epiphyseal plate,
Explain how bone grows in thickness
bone material grows from osteoprogenitor cells
Describe the process involved in bone remodeling.
ongoing replacement of old bone tissue with by resorption and deposition
Resorption
removal of calcium from bone by osteoclasts
Deposition
addition of calcium from bone by osteoblasts
Explain the role of bones in regulating blood calcium levels.
parathyroid hormone.
Unit 7 & 8
Axial and Appendicular Skeleton
Axial Skeleton
head, ribs, and spine (inside)
Appendicular Skeleton
arms, shoulders, hips and legs. (outside)
Classify bones base on their shape of location.
long, short, irregular, flat, sesamoid.
Foramen
large opening for things to pass through
Magnum
foremen for the spine
Normal Spinal Curves
cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacrum, coccyx
Spine Functions
protects spinal cord, supports the head, attaches.
The parts of the Thoracic Cage
sternum, ribs and costal cartilage
Sternum
breast bone
Ribs
support thoracic cage
Costal Cartilage
connects the sternum to the ribs
The parts of the pectoral girdle
scapula, clavicle
The parts of the pelvic girdle
coxal bones, acetabulum
Acetabulum
socket for the femur head.
Unit 9
Joints
Fibrous Joint
held together by collagen fibers, barely moveable
cartilaginous joints
held together by cartilage, barely moveable
synovial joints
reduces friction, freely moveable
Tendons
attach muscle to bone
Ligaments
attach bone to bone
bursae
sac like structures; hold synovial fluid
tendon sheaths
bursae around tendons
menisci
pads of cartilage between bone
Synovial Joint Movements
hinge, pivot, ball and socket
Hinge
opening and closing
pivot
rotation
ball and socket
shoulder and hip
Unit 10
Muscles
4 Functions of muscle tissue
produce, stabilize, move and thermoregulate
Skeletal Muscle
striated, voluntary movement
Smooth Muscle
unstriated, organ linings,
cardiac muscle
striated, walls of heart
Skeletal muscle fibers
t-tubules, sarcoplasm, mitochondria, sarcoplasmic reticulum
T-Tubules
tunnelling of sarcolemma to to center of a muscle fiber
Sarcoplasm
cytoplasm
Mitochondria
ATP production
Sarcoplasmic Recticulum
smooth ER stores and releases calcium
Function of skeletal muscle proteins
contraction
Myofibril
motor protein
actin
myosin binds to this
troponin
calcium from sarcomere binds to this
tropomyosin
troponin oves tropomyosin (bonding site)
cross bridge
actin bonded to myosin
contraction
myosin binds to sarcomere which slides
Sliding filament theory
myosin binds to actin, forms a cross bridge.
Somatic Motor Neuron
voluntary muscle movement, action potential delivery
Neurotransmitter junction
space between neuron and muscle fiber
acetylcholine
neurotransmitter causing contraction in skeletal muscle
sarcolemma
plasma membrane, receives action potential
Anaerobic metabolism
No O2, 1 glucose; 2 ATP (FAST)
Aerobic Slow
O2 required, 1 glucose; 32 ATP (SLOW)
Slow Twitch
more myoglobin, aerobic metabolism,
Fast Twitch
fine motor movement, anaerobic metabolism
Cardiac Muscle
sarcomeres, striated, heart
Smooth Muscle
No sarcomeres, organs, slow contract, involuntary
Skeletal Muscle
sarcomeres, attach to bone, fast contractions, voluntary,
Temporomandibular
synovial joint, chewing
Atlanto-Occipital
flex/extending head
Altanto-Axial
synovial; pivot, rotating head
Intervertebral Discs
cartilaginous, absorbs shock
Sternocostal
synovial, breathing
Shoulder
synovial, abd/adduction
Elbow
synovial, flex/extend of elbow
Radioulnar
synovial, flipping hand
Interphalangeal
synovial, flex/extend fingers
pubic symphasis
cartilaginous, coxal bones
knee
synovial, flex/extend
hip
ball and socket, abd/adduction of femur joins the acetabulum
ankle
synovial, foot movement
