Introduction
• By age 25 the skeleton is completely hardened growth
ceases
• 206 bones make up the adult skeleton (20% of body mass)
• 80 bones of the axial skeleton
• 126 bones of the appendicular skeleton
3
Functions of skeletal system
• Support, Movement & Protection
• Gives shape to head, etc.
• Supports body’s weight
• Protects lungs, etc.
• Bones and muscles interact
• When limbs or body parts move
4
Bone Classification
• Bone Classification:
• Long Bones
• Short Bones
• Sesamoid Bones
• Flat Bones
• Irregular Bones
• Wormian Bones

Parts of a Long Bone
• Epiphysis
• Distal
• Proximal
• Diaphysis
• Metaphysis
• Compact bone
• Spongy bone
• Articular cartilage
• Periosteum
• Endosteum

Microscopic Structure
• Bone cells are called osteocytes
• Osteocytes transport nutrients and wastes
• The extracellular matrix of bone is largely collagen and i
norganic salts
• Collagen gives bone resilience
• Inorganic salts make bone hard
7
Compact Bone
• Osteon
aka Haversian System
• Central canal
• Perforating canal aka V
olkmann’s canal
• Osteocytes
• Lamellae
• Lacunae
• Bone matrix

7.3: Bone Development
and Growth
• Parts of the skeletal system begin to develop during the f
irst few weeks of prenatal development
• Bones replace existing connective tissue in one of two w
ays:
• As intramembranous bones
• As endchondral bones
10
Intramembranous Bones
• Intramembranous Bones
• These bones originate within sheetlike layers of connect
ive tissues
• They are the broad, flat bones
• Skull bones (except mandible)
• Are known as intramembranous bones
11
Endochondral Bones
• Endochondral Bones
• Bones begin as hyaline cartilage
• Form models for future bones
• These are most bones of the skeleton
• Are known as endochondral bones
12
Endochondral Ossification
• Hyaline cartilage model
• Primary ossification center
• Secondary ossification centers
• Epiphyseal plate
• Osteoblasts vs. osteoclasts

ppear until the presentation is viewed in
Presentation Mode (Slide Show view). Y
ou may see blank slides in the “Normal”
or “Slide Sorter” views. All animations
will appear after viewing in Presentation
Mode and playing each animation. Most
animations will require the latest versio

Growth at the Epiphyseal Plate
• First layer of cells
• Closest to the end of epip
hysis
• Resting cells
• Anchors epiphyseal plate
to epiphysis
• Second layer of cells
• Many rows of young c
ells
• Undergoing mitosis

Homeostasis of Bone Tissue
• Bone Resorption – action of osteoclasts and parathyroid horm
one aka parathormone aka PTH
• Bone Deposition – action of osteoblasts and calcitonin
• Occurs by direction of the thyroid and parathyroid glands

Factors Affecting Bone Developme
nt, Growth and Repair
• Deficiency of Vitamin A – retards bone development
• Deficiency of Vitamin C – results in fragile bones
• Deficiency of Vitamin D – rickets, osteomalacia
• Insufficient Growth Hormone – dwarfism
• Excessive Growth Hormone – gigantism, acromegaly
• Insufficient Thyroid Hormone – delays bone growth
• Sex Hormones – promote bone formation; stimulate ossification
of epiphyseal plates
• Physical Stress – stimulates bone growth

Blood Cell Formation
• Blood Cell Formation
• Also known as hematopoiesis
• Occurs in the red bone marrow

• Inorganic Salt Storage
• Calcium
• Phosphate
• Magnesium
