Intro to the skeletal System School House Rock Video
137.222.110.150 www.becomehealthynow.com www.genomenewsnetwork.org www.orthop.washington.edu Components of Skeletal System • Bones • Joints • Cartilages • Ligaments
Functions of Skeletal System • Support • Protection • Movement • Storage • Hemopoiesis
www.gla.ac.uk Basic Bone Types • Compact—dense, looks smooth • Spongy—composed of small, needle like pieces & lots of open space
adam.about.com 137.222.110.150 Four Categories of Bones • Long longer than wide mostly compact bone
library.thinkquest.org Four Categories of Bones Short cube shaped, contain mostly spongy bone
avalon.ira.uka.de Four Categories of Bones • Flat • thin, flat, usually curved.
www.linkpublishing.com Four Categories of Bones • Irregular • all the rest.
Bone Markings • Projections (Processes)—grow out from bone surface; used to form joints or sites for muscle/ligament attachment. • Depressions—indentations in bone; allow for blood vessels and nerves to pass.
Long Bone Structure • Diaphysis (shaft)—makes up most of bone’s length—compact • Yellow bone marrow—storage of fat (cavity of shaft) in adults • Periosteum—protective covering of diaphysis • Epiphysis—end of long bone
Long Bone Structurecon’t: • Red bone marrow—within long bone shafts in infants, forms RBCs, limited to few locations in adults • Articular Cartilage—covers epiphyses of long bone • Epiphyseal plate—flat plate of hyaline cartilage found in young bone; causes lengthwise growth of bone. • Epiphyseal line—remnant of the epiphyseal plate
Bone Formation and Growth Most bones (except flat bones) undergo ossification— http://embryology.med.unsw.edu.au/notes/images/skmus/endochondralbone600.jpg
Ossification Process • Hyaline cartilage model of bone is completely covered with bony matrix (laid down by osteoblasts…bone builders)
Next, the enclosed hyaline cartilage will be digested away, opening up the medullary cavity within the newly formed bone. http://www.cdb.ucl.ac.uk/research/arnett/arnett_lab/images/osteoclast_bfast_lunch_dinner.jpg (Done by osteoclasts—bone destroyers)
New cartilage is formed on external face of the epiphyseal plate farthest away from the medullary cavity At the same time, the old cartilage next to the medullary cavity is broken down and replaced by bone—effectively lengthening the bone Longitudinal Growth
Longitudinal Growth con’t: • Ossification completed between 18-25 years old.
How do bones widen? • Osteoblasts in periosteum add bone tissue to outer surface at the same rate that osteoclasts break down bone from inner diaphysis wall.

Broken bones and how they mend… • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1qLUNXAhAY • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUK6EghcUdc • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fjGpMmmycw
Remodeling of bone • Response to two factors: • Ca levels in blood • Stress on bones (gravity and muscle action)
Ca levels • When Ca levels in your blood drop below homeostatic levels, the parathyroid glands release PTH (parathyroid hormone) into blood http://www.vivo.colostate.edu/hbooks/pathphys/endocrine/thyroid/pth_targets.gif
Ca levels • PTH activates the osteoclasts to break down bone to release Ca into blood • If Ca levels in blood are high, your thyroid gland releases calcitonin which causes the extra Ca to be deposited into the bone

Stress on bones • Gravity/Muscles pulling on bones indicates where the bones must strengthen. This explains why bones grow large projections in areas that are heavily muscled…
Ca and Stress on bones work together… • PTH determines IF Ca is needed and the effects of gravity/stress on bones determines WHERE the Ca is deposited in bone.
Minerals Mg deficiency slows osteoclasts and slows bone formation Insufficient Ca and P are causes of weak bone Insufficient B—boron aids in Ca absorption in digestive tract…
Minerals • Vit C deficiency results in decreased production of collagen = slower bone growth and slower fracture healing • Vit B12 may play a role in osteoblast activity
Hormones—(other than PTH and Calcitonin) • Human Growth Hormone (hGH) produced by pituitary gland promotes general bone growth • Estrogen and Testosterone—promote osteoblast activity
Exercise • Exercise creates electrical currents that stimulate formation of osteoblasts—especially exercise that puts stress on bones • Stimulates production of Calcitonin (inhibiting osteoclasts) • Lack of exercise induces removal of mineral salts and collagen
Smoking • Smoking reduces estrogen levels thus lowering osteoblasts = greater risk of osteoporosis • Smoking diminishes circulation which increases the risk of poor bone density • Smokers tend to not exercise…see previous slide
Aging • Loss of Ca is correlated with aging • Premature abandonment of exercise results in decreased ability to make bone matrix—older people who maintain exercise have stronger bones than same age peers who are sedentary…

Hyoid courses.washington.edu bioweb.uwlax.edu • only bone in human body that doesn’t articulate with another bone.
Fetal Skull Large compared to body size (about ¼ of body, in adults 1/8) fontenels—soft spots, allow for depression during birth and brain growth. ossification between 22 – 24 months
Vertebral Column Supports skull and extends to pelvis • flexible, curved structure of 26 irregular bones (33 at infancy) • spinal cord runs through the center • Intervertebral discs—flexible fibrocartilage to cushion and protect.
