Skeletal, Muscular, and integumentary systems

QuestionAnswer
What do bones provide? A system of levers on which muscles act to produce movement
What important functions does the skeletal system do? It supports the body, protects internal organs, provides for movement, stores mineral reserves, and provides a site for blood cell formation.
How many bones are in an adult human body? 206 bones
What are bones? Solid network of living cells and protein fibers that are surrounded by deposits of calcium salts.
What is periosteum? The bone surrounded by a tough layer of connective tissue
What are Haversian canals? Are a network of tubes and they contain blood vessels and nerves and run through compact bone.
What is spongy bone? A less dense tissue that is found inside the outer layer of compact bone.
Osteocytes? Mature bone cells that are embedded in the bone matrix
Osteoclasts? break down bone
Osteoblasts Produce bone
Bone Marrow soft tissue that act as cavities in a bone
Yellow marrow made up of fat cells
Red Marrow produces red blood cells, some kinds of white blood cells, and cell fragments called platelets
Cartilage connective tissue that a skeleton of an embryo is composed of.
Stucture of a bone 1.) spongy bone 2.) compact bone 3. Periosteum 4. Bone marrow
Ossification Process where cartilage is replaced by bone
Axial skeleton is made up of? Skull, Sternum, Ribs, Vertebral Column
Appendicular Skeleton is made up of? Clavicale, scapula, Humerus,Radius, Pelvis,Ulna, Carpals, Metacarpals, Phalanges, femur, patella, fibula, tibia, tarsals, metatarsals, Phalanges.
Joint? A place where one bone attaches to another bone
what depends for what a joint is classified as? The type of movement
Immovable joints... Allow no movement. They are interlocked and held together with connective tissue.
Slightly movable joints... Permit cmall amount of movement. The joints are separated from each other
Freely Movable joints... Premit direction is one or more directions.
Ball-and-socket joint pieces Clavicle, Ball-and socket joint, scapula, and humerus
Hinge joint pieces Femur, Patella, Fibula, Tibia, and Hinge joint
Pivot joint humerus, radius, ulna, pivot joint
Saddle joint Metacarpals, carpals, and saddle joint
Ligaments Hold bones together and is a layer of a joint capsule
Three types of muscle tissue? Skeletal, smooth, and cardiac
Skeletal muscle? usually attached to bones and are responsible for voluntary movement.
Are skeletal muscle cells small or large? Large and long and slender
What makes up skeletal muscle? Muscle fibers, connective tissues, blood vessels, and nerves
What are smooth muscles? Usually not under voluntary control. Spindle-shaped, had one nucleus, and not striated.
What do smooth muscles do? Move food through your digestive tract, control the way blood flows through your curculatory system, and decrease the size of your pupils when in contact with light.
Where is Cardiac muscle found? Found in the heart
What is myosin? Thick filaments that are the force-producing engines that cause a muscle to contract
When does a muscle contract? When the thin filaments in the muscle fiber slide over the thick filaments.
What is actin? The thin filaments that are made up of mainly this protein.
Neuromuscular junction is? The point of contact between a motor neuron and a skeletal muscle cell.
Acetylcholine is?Vesicles or pockets in the axon terminals of the motor neuron release this neurotransmitter Acetylcholine
What are skeletal muscles that are joined to the bones by tough connective tissues? Tendons
what does the integumentary system serves a barrier against infection and injury, helps to regulate body temp, removes wast products from the body, provides protection against uv rays from the sun.
Two main layers of skin Epidermis and dermis
What is the outer layer of skin? Epidermis
the part of the layer that is made of dead cells is part of the Epidermis layer
What is keratin? Tough, fibrous protein?
Melanin? dark brown pigment
The inner layer of skin is? Dermis
The tough layer of connective tissue surrounding each bone is called? periosteum
The network of tubes that runs through compact bone is called? Haversian canals
Cartilage is replaced by a bone during the process of Ossification
Strips of tough connective tissue that hold bones together are known as.. ligaments
Small sacs of sunovial fluid that help reduce friction between the bones of a joint are called bursae
Joints that allow for circular movement are.. ball-and-socket joints
The two proteins that are involved in the contraction of muscle are? actin and myosin
The point of contact between a motor neuron and skeletal muscle cell is called a neuromuscular junction
where are spongy bones found? In flat bones
What are flat bones Skull, shoulder, ribs, pelvis,
Long bones Appendages, legs, and arms.
Medulary cavity Store energy (fat cells) Yellow marrow
What is the highest energy form in the body Fats
Miophibral page 927. Individual protein stands.
ratchet theory during muscle contraction they grab the actin and pull it.
cross-bridges ex. rubber band snaps back to original shape once pulled apart and snapped back. This happens in actin movement in steps.
when calcium binds then.. The cross bridge will grab the calcium forming a binding site.
How does calcium flow through Interstation fluid?
WHat determines strength of a contraction The amount that of fibers that need to do the work.
Communicating canals
Membrane that supply s the blood to the bone periosteon
Two types of cartilage Articulate cartage (move or come together)
dense fibro cartitlage for cushioning
Miniscus? Knee cartilage.
Synovial fluid Lubricator in body
Atlas Holds cranium allows to shake up and down
C2 (axis) allows to shake left to right
Saddle joint is where? the wrist bone and thumb bone
Joint capsule
