Skeletal System Lab Chapters 6 and 7 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings An Introduction to the Axial Skeleton Structures of Bones Articulations Contacts with other bones Landmarks (Bone Markings; Marks) Areas of muscle and ligament attachment Foramina Openings for nerves and blood vessels Classification of Bones Bones are classified by Shape Internal tissue organization Bone markings (surface features; marks) Classification of Bones Figure 6–1 A Classification of Bones by Shape. Classification of Bones Bone Shapes Long bones Are long and thin Are found in arms, legs, hands, feet, fingers, and toes Flat bones Are thin with parallel surfaces Are found in the skull, sternum, ribs, and scapulae Sutural bones Are small, irregular bones Are found between the flat bones of the skull Classification of Bones Bone Shapes Irregular bones Have complex shapes Examples: spinal vertebrae, pelvic bones Short bones Are small and thick Examples: ankle and wrist bones Sesamoid bones Are small and flat Develop inside tendons near joints of knees, hands, and feet Classification of Bones Bone Markings Depressions or grooves Along bone surface Projections Where tendons and ligaments attach At articulations with other bones Tunnels Where blood and nerves enter bone Classification of Bones Classification of Bones Classification of Bones Structure of a Long Bone Diaphysis The shaft A heavy wall of compact bone, or dense bone A central space called medullary (marrow) cavity Epiphysis Wide part at each end Articulation with other bones Mostly spongy (cancellous) bone Covered with compact bone (cortex) Metaphysis Where diaphysis and epiphysis meet Classification of Bones Figure 6–2 Bone Structure. Classification of Bones Structure of a Flat Bone The parietal bone of the skull Resembles a sandwich of spongy bone Between two layers of compact bone Within the cranium, the layer of spongy bone between the compact bone is called the diploë Classification of Bones Figure 6–2 Bone Structure. Compact and Spongy Bone The Structure of Compact Bone Osteon is the basic unit Osteocytes are arranged in concentric lamellae Around a central canal containing blood vessels Perforating Canals: perpendicular to the central canal carry blood vessels into bone and marrow Circumferential Lamellae Lamellae wrapped around the long bone Bind osteons together Compact and Spongy Bone Figure 6–4 The Histology of Compact Bone. Compact and Spongy Bone Figure 6–5a The Structure of Compact Bone. Compact and Spongy Bone The Structure of Spongy Bone Does not have osteons The matrix forms an open network of trabeculae Trabeculae have no blood vessels The space between trabeculae is filled with red bone marrow: Which has blood vessels Forms red blood cells And supplies nutrients to osteocytes Yellow marrow In some bones, spongy bone holds yellow bone marrow Is yellow because it stores fat Compact and Spongy Bone Figure 6–6 The Structure of Spongy Bone. Compact and Spongy Bone Weight-Bearing Bones The femur transfers weight from hip joint to knee joint Causing tension on the lateral side of the shaft And compression on the medial side Compact and Spongy Bone Figure 6–7 The Distribution of Forces on a Long Bone. Compact and Spongy Bone Compact bone is covered with a membrane Periosteum on the outside Covers all bones except parts enclosed in joint capsules Is made up of an outer, fibrous layer and an inner, cellular layer Perforating fibers: collagen fibers of the periosteum: connect with collagen fibers in bone and with fibers of joint capsules; attach tendons, and ligaments Compact and Spongy Bone Figure 6–8a The Periosteum. Compact and Spongy Bone Functions of Periosteum Isolates bone from surrounding tissues Provides a route for circulatory and nervous supply Participates in bone growth and repair Compact and Spongy Bone Compact bone is covered with a membrane: Endosteum on the inside An incomplete cellular layer: lines the medullary (marrow) cavity covers trabeculae of spongy bone lines central canals contains osteoblasts, osteoprogenitor cells, and osteoclasts is active in bone growth and repair Compact and Spongy Bone Figure 6–8b The Endosteum.
