2. •The skeletal system provides the bony
framework.
•Movement occurs in the joints but
movement per se is done by the muscles.
•The bones will not move unless the
muscle makes them moves.
•The essential purpose of physical
movement is to:
Obtain food and food
Avoid injury and reproduce
3. •Most of the body movements
done by an individual is
controlled by the will expect for
some movements like the
beating of the heart, digestion
and respiration. The
phenomenon know as reflex
action is done before the
individual becomes aware of it.
4. •The bones of the skeleton is
divided into two:
Axial skeleton
Appendicular skeletons
9. Cranium – is formed by irregular
bones that provide protection for
the brain.
Base of the skull
-where the brain rests
Vault
-surrounds and protects the
brain
10. • The bones of the cranium are:
Frontal
Parietal
Temporal
Occipital
Sphenoid
Ethmoid bones
11. • Verbal column is composed of:
24 separate
Movable
Irregular bones
5 sacrum bones
4 coccyx
12. •The 24 separate bones are
divided into three groups:
7 cervical groups
12 thoracic bones
5 lumbar bones
13.
14. • The appendicular skeleton is
composed of:
Shoulder girdle with the upper
limbs
Pelvic girdle with the lower limbs
15. • Compact Bone - has a large
number of Haversian canals which
contain blood, lymph vessels and
nerves.
• Haversian Canal – is surrounded
by concentric plates of bones called
lacunae (spaces).
• Cancellous Bone – is similar to a
honeycomb in appearance. It
contains the red bone marrow and its
haversian canals are larger those in
the compact bones.
16. • Osteoblasts - are the cells responsible for
bone formation which develop
into osteocytes.
- are mature bone cells that
developed from osteoblasts.
• Osteoblasts can be seen present at:
1. The deeper layer of the periosteum
2. The centers of ossification
3. The ends of the diaphyses and
4. The sites of fracture
17. Aside from providing the frame work of the body,
the bones still perform other functions such as:
1. Provide attachment for muscles and tendons,
2. From a boundary at the cranial, thoracic and
pelvic cavities,
3. They also provide protection for the different
organs located at these cavities,
4. Contain the red bone marrow where
hematopoiesis occurs and
5. They serve as reservoir for calcium,
phosphorous and fats.
