Question
Answer
Skeletal system   made up of bones, cartilage, ligaments and tendons. has blood suppl and uses oxygen  
🗑
Functions of the skeletal system   Support, Protection, Movement, Storage, Blood cell formation  
🗑
Support   Framework supports the soft organs  
🗑
Protection   protects the body parts  
🗑
Movement   site for muscle attachment  
🗑
Storage   99% Calcum, fat is stored  
🗑
Blood Cell formation   hematopolsis, red, white blood cells , platelets  
🗑
2 types of bone tissue   compact , spongy (cancellous)  
🗑
3 types of cells in bone tissue   Osteoblast, Osteoclast, Osteocytes  
🗑
Osteoblast   bone forming cell (makes new bone)  
🗑
Osteoclast   break down (resorb) bone  
🗑
Osteocyte   mature bone cells (stores calcium and phosphate)  
🗑
Compact Bone Tissue   basic functional unit OSTEON (haversian system)  
🗑
Osten   consist of a central canal (osteonic) surrounded by concentric rings (lamellae)  
🗑
Ostenic   central canals of Osten  
🗑
Lamellae   concentric rings  
🗑
spongy bone   is cancellous, light and less dense, consist of plates and bars of bone.  
🗑
trabeculae   plate of bone  
🗑
Femur is an example of   long  
🗑
wrist is an example of   short  
🗑
ribs are an example of   flat  
🗑
osteogenesis   to make bone  
🗑
2 types of growth in bone development   Intramembranous Ossification and Endochondral Ossification  
🗑
Intramembranous Ossification   cartilage cells cluster together to ake bone, this involves the replacement of sheetlike connective tissue membranes with bony tissue THIS IS HOW FLAT BONES ARE FORMED  
🗑
Endochondral Ossification   involves the replacemnt of hyaline cartilage, this is the way most bones are formed  
🗑
2 TYPES OF DIVISION OF THE SKELETON   Axial Skeleton, Appendicular Skeleton  
🗑
Axial Skeleton   80 bones forms rhe vertical axis of the body  
🗑
Appendicular Skeleton   126 bones includes free appendages, it attaches to the axial skeleton  
🗑
How many bones are in the Axial Skeleton   28: 8 Cranium, 14 Face, 6 Auditory ossicles  
🗑
sutures   bones in the skull are tightly interlocked by irregular lines  
🗑
sinuses   air-filled cavities that are lined with mucus membranes  
🗑
foramina   opening: in skull bones that allow passage of blood vessels and nerves  
🗑
Articulation   Joints where two bones come together  
🗑
3 types of articulation   immovable (sutures in the skull) slightly movable (ribs to sternum) freely movable (knee)  
🗑
