Practice Identifying Bone Markings: Use in conjuction with your bone markings to know worksheet
Bone markings: • Every bone (or matching pair of bones) in the body looks different from every other bone (or matching pair) because of bone markings. • There are three basic types of bone markings: • Processes that are sites of muscle and ligament attachment. • Processes that help to form joints. • Depressions, cavities, and openings that allow blood vessels and nerves to pass through a bone. • Generally, a bone process is an extension from the main body of a bone that serves as a site of muscle attachment or helps form a joint.
Here are the common processes that function as sites of muscle and ligament attachment: Tuberosity: A large rounded projection that may be roughened. Crest: Narrow, usually prominent, ridge of bone. Condyle: Rounded articular projection. Epicondyle: Raised area on or above a condyle.
Spine: Sharp, slender, often pointed process. Tubercle: Small rounded process. Trochanter: Very large, blunt, irregularly shaped process. Line: Narrow ridge of bone that is less prominent than a crest. Ramus: Arm-like bar of a bone.
Here are the common processes that function to help form joints: • Head: Bony expansion carried on a narrow neck. • Facet: Smooth, nearly flat articular surface. • Condyle: Rounded articular projection. • Fossa: Shallow, basinlike depression in a bone, often serving as an articular surface.
Here are the common depressions and openings that allow blood vessels and nerves to pass through bones: Meatus: Canal-like passageway. Sinus: Cavity within a bone, filled with air and lined with mucous membrane. Groove: Furrow. Fissure: Narrow, slit-like opening. Foramen: Round or oval opening through a bone.
