E N D
1. Unit 10Chapter 34Protection, Support, and Locomotion
2. Skin: the Bodys Protection Integumentary System
Contains skin and its related partshair, nails & glands
Functions:
Regulates body temperature
Receives stimuli from environment
Produces vitamin D
Protection of underlying tissues
3. Skin: the Bodys Protection Epidermis:
Outer layer of skin, composed of dead, flattened cells
Contains Melanin, a pigment that colors the skin & protects cell from damage by radiation
4. Skin: the Bodys Protection Dermis
Inner, thicker portion of the skin
Contains blood vessels, nerve endings, hair follicles, sweat & oil glands
5. Skin: the Bodys Protection Hypodermis (subcutaneous layer)
Below the dermis
Contains primarily of fat for cushioning & insulation
6. Bones: the Bodys Support Skeletal System divisions:
Axial skeleton
Includes the skull, vertebrae, ribs & sternum
Appendicular skeleton
Includes bones of the arms & legs, and shoulder & hip bones
7. Bones: the Bodys Support Skeletal system functions:
Protection
Support
Attach muscles
Produce blood cells
Store minerals
8. Bones: the Bodys Support Joints
Where two bones meet
Facilitates the movement of bones in relation to one another
9. Bones: the Bodys Support Ligaments
Connective tissue that attaches one bone to another
Tendons
Connective tissue that attach muscles to bones
10. Bones: the Bodys Support Spongy bone
Soft bone containing many spaces filled with red marrow
Compact bone
Dense bone with an inner cavity containing yellow marrow
Haversian system
Circular area in compact bone containing blood vessels, nerves, and living cells called osteocytes
12. Muscles for Locomotion Smooth muscle
Involuntary movement
Found in hollow body organs, i.e. stomach, arteries, iris of eye
Spindle-shaped cells, non-striated, one nucleus per cell
13. Muscles for Locomotion Cardiac muscle
Involuntary movement
Found only in the heart
Branching, striated (striped) cells, with one nucleus per cell
14. Muscles for Locomotion Skeletal muscle
Voluntary movement
Found attached to bones, i.e. biceps, triceps, hamstrings, etc
Long, striated (striped) cells, with many nuclei
15. Extensor and flexor muscles
16. Muscles for Locomotion
17. Muscles for Locomotion Muscle contraction:
Muscle fibers (cells) are made up of smaller units called myofibrils
Myofibrils contract (shorten) as filaments, called myosin & actin, slide toward one another
18. Sliding filament model
