Divisions of the skeletal system
1.
Axial
: skull, auditory ossicles, hyoid bone, vertebral column, thoracic cage
2.
Appendicular
:
Upper
&
lower
limbs
;
girdles
(
pectoral
and
pelvic
)
Average adult skeleton consists of
206
bones
Categorization of bones
Paired
and
unpaired
Skeletal System
The framework that helps maintain the body’s shape and enables
movement
, composed of
bones
,
cartilage
, and
ligaments
Male vs Female Pelvis
Male
pelvis is usually more massive due to greater weight and size of the male body
Female
pelvis is broader and has a larger, more rounded pelvic inlet and outlet, important during childbirth
Cartilaginous Joint
Unites two bones by means of
hyaline cartilage
or
fibrocartilage
Exhibits
little
or
no movement
Joint
A place where two or more bones come together
Types of joints
Fibrous
Cartilaginous
Synovial
Fibrous
Joint
Connection between two bones united by
fibrous
connective tissue
No
joint
cavity
Little
or
no
movement
Synovial
Joint
Freely movable joints containing
synovial fluid
in a cavity surrounding the ends of
articulating bones
Synovial
fluid
coats and lubricates
articular
cartilage
Types of Movement
1.
Gliding
movements occur in plane joints between 2 flat surfaces
2.
Angular
movements involve changes in the angle between the bones
3.
Circular
movements involve rotation around an axis
4.
Special
movements are unique to only one or two joints
5.
Combination
movements are combinations of other movements
Female pelvis
Broader and has a larger, more rounded pelvic inlet and outlet, important during childbirth
Shapes of Synovial Joints
Plane
Saddle
Hinge
Pivot
Ball-and-socket
Ellipsoid
Movements beyond normal range can cause
dislocations
and
sprains
Range of motion
describes the amount of
mobility
that can be demonstrated in a given joint
Temporomandibular Joint
(
TMJ
) is a combination of plane and ellipsoid joint, with the ellipsoid portion predominating
what are the bones in axial division
skull
,
auditory ossicles
,
vertebral column
,
hyoid bone
,
rib cage
immovable joints connecting cranial bones
sutures
only bone with no direct bony attachment
hyoid bone
hyoid bone functions
attachment point for
tongue
muscles,
neck
muscles that elevate
larynx
(speech and swallowing)
major curvatures
cervical anterior
, thoracic posterior, lumbar anterior, sacral and coccygeal posterior
