THE SKELETAL SYSTEM Focus on the Skull Review Anatomical Terms Anterior/Posterior Dorsal/Ventral Medial/Lateral Superior/Inferior Bone Markings - Review Projections for attachment of muscles, ligaments and tendons (Process, trochanter, tuberosity, tubercle, crest, line, spine) Processes for articulation with other bones (Head, neck, condyle, trochlea, facet) Openings = holes or spaces in bone for nerves and vessels to pass (Foramen, canal, meatus, fissure, sinus) Depressions = indentations (Fossa, sulcus) Axial Skeleton Includes bones of the skull, vertebral column and thoracic cage Creates a framework of support and protection for internal organs Provides sites of attachment of muscles The Skull Protects the brain and supports delicate sense organs Bones that form the skull include 8 cranial bones 14 facial bones 6 auditory ossicles (tiny bones in the ears) Hyoid bone (the only freely moveable bone) Bones are joined by sutures Bones of the Cranium Frontal bone (1)- forms the forehead and roof of the ocular orbits Parietal Bone (2) – posterior to the frontal bone; forms the sides and roof of skull Occiptal Bone (1) – most posterior part of the cranium foramen magnum = large opening for spine Temporal Bone (2) – form the sides and base of the skull; a number of distinct anatomical landmarks Sutures of the Cranium Sagittal Suture – midline suture; between parietal bones Coronal Suture – between frontal bone and parietal bones Lambdoid Suture – between occipital and parietal bones Squamous Suture– between the temporal bones and the parietal bones Bones and Sutures of the Cranium Lateral View Coronal Suture Parietal Bone Temporal Bone Lambdoid Suture Squamous Suture Occipital Bone Frontal Bone Bones and Sutures of the Cranium Frontal View Coronal Suture Parietal Bone Frontal Bone Temporal Bone Bones and Sutures of the Cranium Inferior View Temporal Bone Parietal Bone Occipital Bone Bones and Sutures of the Cranium Horizontal View Frontal Bone Temporal Bone Parietal Bone Occipital Bone REVIEW The skull at birth The skull at birth Bones of the Cranium continued Sphenoid Bone– irregular bat-shaped bone forms part of the cranial floor Ethmoid Bone –stabilizes the brain; forms the roof and sides of the nasal cavity Vomer – nasal septum Palatine Bone – posterior hard palate (“roof of mouth”) Bones of the Cranium – Lateral View Coronal Suture Frontal Bone Parietal Bone Sphenoid Bone Temporal Bone Ethmoid Bone Lambdoid Suture Squamous Suture Occipital Bone Bones of the Cranium -
