3. 1. DEFINITION- The adult human skeletal system
consists of 206 bones, as well as a network of
tendons, ligaments and cartilage that connects them.
The skeletal system performs vital functions —
support, movement, protection, blood cell
production, calcium storage and endocrine regulation
that enable us to survive.
4. 2. Functions-
Support-The primary job of the skeleton is to provide
support for the human body. Without this skeletal
system, our body would collapse.
Protection- The skeletal system also helps to protect
our internal organs and fragile body tissues like the
brain, heart, lungs and spinal cord.
Movement- Bones provide the basic structure for
muscles to attach themselves for able to move.
8. Skull-It supports the structures of the face
and provides a protective cavity for the brain.
The skull is composed of two parts: the
cranium and the mandible.
4.1- SKULL
9. Spinal cord consisting-the cervical, the thoracic, and the
lumbar spine. (Below the lumbar spine is a bone called the
sacrum, which is part of the pelvis). Each section is made up of
individual bones, called vertebrae. In which attached skull,
ribs, shoulder bone, coller bone, hip bone.
4.2- spinal cord (backbone)
10. 4.3- Humerus & radius ulna
It attached with clavicle bone & scapula. Also
phalanges and metacarpals are attached with carpals
joint bone.
11. 4.4- Hip bone
They attached with lumber bone (part of backbone) in
hip bone attached- femur, tibia and fibula, tarsal,
metatarsal, and phalanges.
12. 5. Cartilage bone
Cartilage is a smooth elastic tissue, rubber-like padding
that covers and protects the ends of long bones at the
joints, rib cage, the ear, the nose, the bronchial tubes, the
intervertebral discs, and many other body components.
