The Skeletal System
Essential Question What is the purpose of the skeletal system?
The Skeletal System · Parts of the skeletal system · Bones (skeleton) · Joints · Cartilages · Ligaments (bone to bone)(tendon=bone to muscle) Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 1
The Skeletal System • Skeleton comes from a Greek word meaning dried up body. • Bone appears dead and dried up, but it is not! • Bone is living tissue • Newborn human has 350 bones • Adult human has 206 bones
Functions of Bones · Support of the body (framework) · Protection of soft organs · Serve as levers (with help from muscles) · Storage of minerals and fats (calcium) · Blood cell formation Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 2
Bones of the Human Body · Two basic types of bone tissue · Compact bone · Dense/hard · Spongy bone · (Cancellous) · Many open spaces Figure 5. 2 b ·Decrease wt of bone/contain red bone Slide 5. 3 marrow Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings
Classification of Bones · Long bones · Typically longer than wide · Have a shaft with heads at both ends · Contain mostly compact bone · Found in legs and arms • Examples: Femur, humerus Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 4 a
Classification of Bones · Short bones · Generally cube-shape and small · Contain mostly spongy bone · Found in wrist, ankles, and toes · Examples: Carpals, tarsals Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 4 b
Classification of Bones on the Basis of Shape Figure 5. 1 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 4 c
Classification of Bones · Flat bones · Thin and flattened · Usually curved · Cover organs/provide surface for lg. muscle · Thin layers of compact bone around a layer of spongy bone · Examples: Skull, ribs, sternum Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 5 a
Classification of Bones · Irregular bones · Irregular shape · Do not fit into other bone classification categories · Example: Vertebrae and hip
Gross Anatomy of a Bone · Diaphysis · Shaft · Composed of compact bone · Epiphysis · Ends of the bone · Composed mostly of spongy bone
Structure of a Long Bone · Periosteum · Outside covering of the diaphysis · Fibrous connective tissue membrane Serves as an attachment for muscle · Arteries · Supply bone cells with nutrients
Structure of a Long Bone · Articular cartilage · Covers the external surface of the epiphyses · Made of hyaline cartilage · Decreases friction at joint surfaces
Structure of a Long Bone · Medullary cavity · Cavity of the shaft · Contains yellow marrow (mostly fat) in adults · Contains red marrow (for blood cell formation) in infants
Changes in the Human Skeleton · In embryos, the skeleton is primarily hyaline cartilage · During development, much of this cartilage is replaced by bone · Cartilage remains in isolated areas · Bridge of the nose · Parts of ribs · Joints Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 12
Bone Growth · Epiphyseal plates allow for growth of long bone during childhood · New cartilage is continuously formed · Older cartilage becomes ossified · Cartilage is broken down · Bone replaces cartilage Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide
Bone Growth · Bones are remodeled and lengthened until growth stops · Grow longitudinally for height · Bones grow in width to support weight Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide
Epiphyseal Disc • Refer to figure 8 -3 • Growth plate • The cartilage near the epiphyseal disc multiplies and eventually becomes ossified (turns to bone) • As long as new cartilage continues to form the bone continues to lengthen.
Epiphyseal Disc (cont. ) • When the growth plate hardens and becomes ossified, growth stops • Hormones play a big part in this • Growth hormone stimulates growth • Sex hormones stop growth
Bone Width • Long after longitudinal bone growth has stopped, bones continue to grow in thickness and width. • Bones are continuously being reshaped
Types of Bone Cells · Osteocytes · Mature bone cells · Osteoblasts · Bone-forming cells · Osteoclasts · Bone-destroying cells · Break down bone matrix for remodeling and release of calcium · Bone remodeling is a process by both osteoblasts and osteoclasts Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 15
Bone Remodeling • A combined action of osteoblasts (bone forming cells) and osteoclasts (bone destroying cells) • Osteoblasts deposit bone on the external bone surface • Figure 8 -5 (like a brick layer) • Osteoclasts break down bone from the inside • Figure 8 -5 (like a sculptor)
Long Bone Formation and Growth Figure 5. 4 a Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide
Bone Fractures · A break in a bone · Types of bone fractures · Closed (simple) fracture – break that does not penetrate the skin · Open (compound) fracture – broken bone penetrates through the skin · Bone fractures are treated by reduction and immobilization · Realignment of the bone Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 16
Common Types of Fractures Table 5. 2 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 17
Handout #1 Injuries to bones
Dislocation of joint • Displacement of bones at the joint • Often caused by impact trauma to that joint • Can be more damaging and painful than a fracture • Damage to the joint capsule and surrounding ligaments and tendons often takes much longer to heal than bone tissue.
Dislocated Finger
In Groups of 4 • Locate the fracture/dislocation • Identify the type of fracture
Repair of Bone Fractures · Hematoma (blood-filled swelling) is formed · Break is splinted by fibrocartilage to form a soft callus · Blood vessels grow into the hematoma · Fibrocartilage callus is replaced by a bony callus · Bony callus is remodeled to form a permanent patch Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 18
Stages in the Healing of a Bone Fracture Figure 5. 5 Copyright © 2003 Pearson Education, Inc. publishing as Benjamin Cummings Slide 5. 19
