SKELETAL SYSTEM
Pages 911-916
FUNCTIONS
•Bones support and protect organs and muscles
•Gives shape and structure
•Store minerals
•Produce blood cells
•Bones are a type of connective tissue: live cells
surrounded by extracellular nonliving tissue
SKELETON
•Axial: the skull, face, vertebral
column, and rib cage (80 bones)
SKELETON
•Appendicular: the arms and legs,
pelvis, scapula, etc (126 bones)
BONE STRUCTURE
•Porous and made of proteins and
minerals
•Osteocytes: cells that make bone
•Bone marrow: soft bone tissue
that produces blood cells
BONE DEVELOPMENT
•Develop from cartilage
•Ossification: hardening of
bone cartilage
•Elongation at end of bones
JOINTS
•Place where two bones
meet
ASSOCIATED CONNECTIVE TISSUE
•Ligaments: connects bone to bone,
tough bands that hold joint in place
•Tendons: connect muscle to bone
•Cartilage: flexible connective tissue
TYPES OF JOINTS
•Fixed: no movement between
bones (ex. skull)
•Semimovable: limited movement
(ex. rib cage and vertebrae)
TYPES OF JOINTS
•Movable
•Hinge: moves up and down (ex. knee
and elbow)
•Pivot: move side to side (ex. skull joins
the vertebral column)
•Ball-and-socket: move in a circle (ex.
Shoulder)
TYPES OF JOINTS
•Movable
•Gliding: bones slide over one another (ex. Ankle
and wrist)
•Saddle: rotate and grasp (ex. Base of thumb)
