36-1 Skeletal System
206 bones in your body compose your Skeleton
The bones of your skull, ribs, spine, and sternum
form the Axial Skeleton
Appendicular Skeleton is the bones of your arms,
legs, scapula, clavicle and pelvis
3.
36-1 Skeletal System
The bone’s surface is covered by a tough membrane called
Periosteum
Compact Bone is the layer under the periosteum which is
composed of a mineral crystal cylinders called Haversian
Canals which contain blood vessels.
In between haversian canals are Osteocytes which are the
living bone
A network of connective tissue inside the compact bone is
called Spongy Bone. (Hard for support)
Bone Marrow is a soft tissue in the spongy bone that produces
red and white blood cells and also stores fat for energy reserve
36-1 Cont
Fractureis a break or crack in a bone
When cartilage is converted into bone through the
depositing of minerals is called Ossification
Bone elongation takes place near the end of long
bones in the Epiphyseal Plate.
6.
36-1
The placewhere two bones meet is a Joint
Movable Joint- Majority of joints in the body in
which allows a wide range of movements
Fixed Joint- Prevent movement (Bony plates that
compose the Skull)
Semimovable Joints- permits limited movement-
Example-Spine
Tough bands of connective tissue, called
Ligaments, hold the bones of the joint in place
The term Arthritis is used to describe painful,
swollen joints
36-2 Muscular System
Skeletal muscle tissue is made up of elongated cells
called Muscle Fibers
Each fiber has dark and light lines called Striation
Fascicles are the dense bundles of muscle fibers
Voluntary Muscles are consciously controlled
Skeletal Muscles
Because most of its movements cannot be
consciously controlled, Smooth and Cardiac muscle
is referred to as Involuntary Muscles
9.
Each musclefiber
consists of Myofibrils
Each myofibrils is
composed of two
proteins:
Myosin- Thick
filaments
Actin-Thin Filaments
Where all of the actin
are anchored together is
the Z-Line
From z-line to the next
is considered a
Sarcomere
10.
36-2 Muscular System
Muscle are attached to periosteum by a Tendon
The point where a muscle attaches to a stationary bone is
called the Origin
The point where a muscle attaches to a moving bone is
called the Insertion
Flexor- Muscle that bends the joint-Bicep
Extensor- Muscle that straightens the joint- Triceps
Neuromuscular junction is to point in which the motor
neuron and a skeletal muscle meet
The neurotransmitter released at this junction is
Acetylcholine
36-3 Integumentary
System (Skin)
Skin is the body’s largest organ
The outer layer of the skin, Epidermis, is composed of
layers of thin Epithelial cells (Dead)
Keratin- A protein in epidermal cells which makes it
leathery and waterproof
A color pigment in skin called Melanin, is what absorbed
Ultra Violet light to protect us
The inner layer of living skin, Dermis, and has specialized
structures such as Sensory Neurons, Blood Vessels, Muscle
Fibers, Hair Follicles, and Glands
14.
36-3 Cont..
Hair,which protects and insulates the body is produced in
the dermis in pits called Hair Follicles
Exocrine glands- Glands that release secretion through
ducts in the skin
Glands that release excess water, salt and Urea are called
Sweat Glands
Oil Glands, Which are found in large numbers on the face
and scalp produce a fatty substance known as Sebum
Excess amount of Sebum, dead cells and bacteria produces
the skin disorder Acne
