Functions of the Skeletal System Bones are made of OSSEOUS TISSUE Support Protection Movement Blood cell formation (bone marrow) - hematopoeisis Storage of organic and inorganic materials (salt, calcium, potassium, lipids….)
ORGANIZATION About 206 bones in the adult body 2 Main Divisions – Axial & Appendicular
Axial Skeleton Head, neck, trunk Skull Hyoid Bone Vertebral Column Thoracic Cage (ribs, 12 pairs) Sternum
Hyoid Bone The hyoid bone is unique because it is the only bone that is not attached to any other bones.
Limbs & Bones that connect to the • Pectoral Girdle (shoulders) • Pelvic Girdle (hips) Appendicular Skeleton
Epiphysis • Diaphysis • Articular Cartilage • Periosteum BONE STRUCTURE - Long Bone
Medullary Cavity – hollow chamber filled with bone marrow Red Marrow (blood) Yellow Marrow (fat) Endosteum – lining of the medullary Inside the Long Bone
Compact (wall of the diaphysis) Spongy (cancellous, epiphysis) - red marrow Types of Bone Tissue

MATRIX - where the bone cells live OSTEOCYTES - mature bone cells, enclosed in tiny chambers called LACUNAE OSTEOCYTES form rings (LAMELLAE) around a HAVERSIAN CANAL which houses blood vessels Osteocytes are linked by CANALICULI Haversian Canals are linked by VOLKMAN's CANALS Microscopic Structure

BONE DEVELOPMENT & GROWTH • Intramembranous bones – flat, skull • Endochondral bones – all other • ALL BONES START AS HYALINE CARTILAGE, areas graduallly turn to bone • PRIMARY OSSIFICATION CENTER (shaft) • SECONDARY OSSIFICATION CENTER (ends)
EPIPHYSEAL DISK (growth plate) is a band of cartilage between the epiphysis and diaphysis These areas increase bone length as the cells ossify Cartilage becomes OSTEOBLASTS become OSTEOCYTES Bone Development & Growth
RESORPTION OSTEOCLASTS - dissolve bone tissue to release minerals, process is called RESORPTION
Abnormal Bone Conditions BONE SPURS: abnormal growth. Can occur on any bone (e.g. heel). OSTEOPOROSIS: Increased activity of osteoclasts cause a break down bone, and the subsequent fewer minerals in the extracellular matrix make it fragile. The spongy bone especially becomes more porous. Men get it as well as women. What’s the best way to prevent osteoporosis? Exercise! What does exercise do? Makes bones bigger. The most common bone used for a bone graft is the iliac bone of the hip.
Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease which causes joint stiffness and bone deformity Source: http://www.thetimes.co.uk/tto/public/article3233439.ece
SCOLIOSIS • SCOLIOSIS is a lateral curve in the spine
KYPHOSIS • KYPHOSIS is a hunchback curve
LORDOSIS • LORDOSIS is a swayback in the lower region.
ANKYLOSIS • ANKYLOSIS is severe arthritis in the spine and the vertebrae fuse.
