Question
Answer

Musculoskeletal System- Function   Movement, Protection, Support, Blood Cell Formation, Mineral Homeostasis  
🗑
Musculoskeletal System- Elements   Bone, Joints, Tendons, Ligaments, Cartilage, Muscle  
🗑
Bone cells   osteoblasts, osteoclasts, osteocytes  
🗑
Remodeling (of bone)   Existing bone resorbed and new bone replaces; Ongoing- bone turnover every 7-10 yrs Basic Multicellular units → osteoblasts and clasts; Stimulated by hormone, drug, vitamin, physical stressor, etc. Activation → reabsorption → formation “secondary bone”  
🗑
Repair (of bone)   new bone formation (NOT SCAR); Remodeling but initiated by inflammation/hematoma → osteoblasts form callus, then multicellular units as above (months to yrs)  
🗑
Mineralization- minerals involved   crystallization = final step in bone formation; mainly calcium phosphate  
🗑
Compact bone   highly organized, solid and strong w/ complex concentric layers of matrix; organized spaces; channels throughout; main central canal- Haversian canal  
🗑
Spongy bone   less organized and complex; lacks central canal; the organization is in bars of irregular meshwork. These bars are organized in different directions with particular layout depending on stress on that bone  
🗑
Red Marrow   in space of spongy bone  
🗑
Yellow Marrow   in medullary cavity  
🗑
Articular cartilage (joints)   Covers end of each bone; Reduces friction, distributes forces of weight-bearing; Water + proteins + collagen

🗑
Ligament   bone to bone  
🗑
Tendon   muscle to bone  
🗑
Muscles   Sensory info from muscle to spinal cord (about stretch and change in muscle) → causes motor response  
🗑
Motor Unit of muscles; increase contrax?   Anterior horn of spinal cord →axon lower motor neuron →muscle fibers You CANNOT increase # of fibers but increase diameter and length of fibers  
🗑

🗑
Aerobic   requires oxygen for oxidation of glycogen  
🗑
Anaerobic   does not require oxygen  
🗑
Excitation of the muscle   Electrical impulse movement  
🗑
Troponin   tropomyosin in thin actin filaments → Ca binds to these → change in shape and movement so actin-myosin binding sites are exposed  
🗑
Myosin/Actin binding   pulls actin inward and to myosin head (thin filament to thick filament) → shortening which is contraction  
🗑

🗑
Dislocation   loss of articulation of the bone ends with the joint capsule caused by displacement or separation (temporary)- congenital, traumatic, or pathologic causes; potentially threatens use of limbs 2° nerve supply & blood supply compromise  
🗑
Tendonitis   inflammation causes thickening → limits movement, causes pain; if tears, bleeding w/ inflame continue; ↓ calcium  
🗑

🗑
Rhabdomylosis   Life threatening complication from severe muscle trauma & ischemia; crush injuries; compartment syndrome; crush syndrome; post viral infections; prolonged unresponsiveness & immobility
