E N D
Functions of the skeletal system • Give shape & support • Protect internal organs • Moves muscles • Form blood cells • Store calcium and phosphorous
Bone Cross Section Periosteum: soft, thin, covers and protects the bone Compact Bone: Hard, outer surface. Can heal itself when broken Spongy Bone: Porous, contains blood vessels, nerves Marrow: manufactures red blood cells
Skeletal System is divided into two parts
Axial Skeleton • Skull (protects the brain). • Ribs ( protect lungs, and heart). • Spinal column (houses and protects the spinal cord).
Appendicular Skeleton • Legs • Pelvis • Arms • Shoulders
Types of Joints • Immovable • Skull • Pelvis • Moveable • Pivot • Ball & socket • Hinge • Gliding
Types of Joints • Ball and Socket Joint • Bone with a rounded end that fits into a cuplike cavity on another bone http://www.shockfamily.net/skeleton/JOINTS.HTML
Ball & Socket: Shoulders and Hips • Allows arms and hips to move in any direction • Can move in a full 360 degrees
Types of Joints • Pivot Joint • One bone rotates in a ring of another bone that does not move http://www.funhousefilms.com/b-pivot2.jpg
Pivot Joints: First two neck vertebrae & joint beneath elbow • Moves in a semicircle motion by twisting against each other
Types of Joints • Hinge Joint • Back-and-forth movement like hinges on a door http://www.shockfamily.net/skeleton/JOINTS.HTML
Hinged: Elbows & Knees • Move like hinges on a door • Limited movement • Can only swing back and forth
Type of Joints • Gliding Joint • One part of a bone slides over another bone http://www.shockfamily.net/skeleton/JOINTS.HTML
Gliding Joints: Spine, Wrists, Ankles • Slide against each other in a gliding motion • Gives your wrists and ankles lots of freedom
