E N D
Bones • They support the body and give it shape • They work with muscles to let you move • Protect organs and produces blood cells • Store • Phosphorus and calcium • Released when your body needs them
Skeletons • Axial Skeleton • Bones in your head, breastbone, your ribs, and the bones in your backbone • Appendicular Skeleton • The rest of your body • Bones in your hands, arms, legs, feet, hips, and shoulders
Axial Skeleton • Skull • Actually made up of many small bones fused together • Cranium- the thick, hard part of the skull that encloses the brain and protects it • Jawbone • Only bone in your skull that can move
Backbone/spinal column • 33 bones called vertebrae • Support your head and give flexibility to your neck and back • Helps protect the spinal cord from injury • Cartilage between each vertebrae • Ribs and breastbone form a protective cage
Joints • The point at which two bones come together
Ligaments • Strong bands that hold bones together at movable joints and prevent them from popping apart • A tough layer of cartilage protects the ends of the bones • Synovial Fluid • A fluid that helps lubricate the joint
Joint Activity • We are going to break into 5 different groups • Each group will be responsible to research their assigned joint • Look at page 340 in the red book • Find out where in your body your assigned joint is and find 3 other examples that are within the classroom. • 1) Immovable 2) Hinge 3) Ball and Socket 4)Pivot 5) Gliding
Types of Joints • Immovable joints • Cranium • Hinge • Works like a door hinge and allows back and forth movement • Knees, elbows, and outer knuckles of your fingers
Ball and socket • Hips and shoulders • Allows movement in all directions • Greatest range of motion • Pivot • Bones move from side to side and up and down • You can shake your head because of these
Gliding joint • Your wrists and ankles are flexible • Allows joints to slide over one another
Bones • We have 206 bones in our body • Bones remain active even after they stop growing
Structure of bones • Periosteum • A tough membrane that covers bones • Contains cells that form new bone during growth and repair • Blood vessels run through it and branch into the bone • The blood flowing through here brings nutrients and takes away wastes
Compact Bone • Very hard and dense
Spongy Bone • Very light in weight • Filled with spaces • These spaces make the bone like a shock absorber • The rounded ends of bones are made up of mostly spongy bone
Marrow • Found in the inside of bones • There are two types • Red • Fills the spaces in spongy bones • Most of your blood cells are made in red marrow • Yellow • Found in the center of long bones and is made up mostly of fat
Development of Bone • The bones start as cartilage before birth • This is replaced by ossification • Ossification=cartilage turning into bone • Minerals are deposited in the cartilage making it hard • This continues until you are 20-25
In the red book, pg. 342-344 • There will be 8 groups • It is your job to research your assigned bone “problem” and then make a skit like you are an athlete you have a bone “problem” and needs a trainers expertise. The trainer will then tell you how to fix your “problem.”
