The Skeletal System

The Skeletal System. The skeleton. There are ~206 bones in your body. The longest bone in your body is your femur. (Can you find your femur?) Almost all animals have bones. Bones contain calcium. What foods do you eat that contain calcium? The human skeleton has two divisions:

Functions of (Skeletal) Muscles

Functions of (Skeletal) Muscles. Movement 2. Posture and Muscle Tone 3. Heat Production. Movement Muscles move bones by pulling on them. Length of skeletal muscle shortens as muscle fibers contract  moves bones (levers) Usually only insertion (more movable) bone moves

The Skeletal System

The Skeletal System. Vocabulary . Skeletal System : A system made up of bones, joints, and connective tissue. Cartilage : Flexible tissue that provides cushioning at your joints. Joint : Points at which bones meet. Ligament : Strong cords of tissue that connect bone to bone at joints.
