SKELETAL / MUSCLE SYSTEMS

TERMS SO YOU KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT

 TERMS FOR MOTION  ABDUCTION ADDUCTION MOTION AWAY FROM THE MIDLINE OF THE BODY MOTION TOWARD THE MIDLINE OF THE BODY

BENDING FLEXION EXTENSION DECREASES THE ANGLE BETWEEN TWO BONES AT THEIR JOINT MOVEMENT THAT STRAIGHTENS BONES AT THEIR JOINTS

OTHER TERMS JOINT- POINT OF JUNCTURE OF TWO OR MORE BONES LIGAMENT- TISSUE WHICH CONNECTS BONES AT JOINTS SYNOVIAL FLUID- LUBRICATING FLUID OF JOINTS TENDON- TISSUE WHICH CONNECTS MUSCLES TO BONE

CAN ANYBODY GUESS WHAT THE 4 FUNCTIONS OF THE SKELETAL SYSEM ARE??????? 

FUNCTIONS OF THE SKLETON SUPPORTS AND GIVES SHAPE TO THE BODY PROTECTS INTERNAL ORGANS MAKES MOVEMENT POSSIBLE PRODUCES BLOOD CELLS

DIVISIONS OF SKELETON

AXIAL SKELETON SKULL CRANIUM FACE

VERTEBRAL COLUMN SPINE

THORAX RIBS STERNUM

APPENDICULAR SKELETON LOWER EXTREMITIES UPPER EXTREMITIES SHOULDER GIRDLE ARMS HANDS HIP GIRDLE LEGS  FEET

PARTS OF BONES SO YOU KNOW WHAT'S INSIDE

DIAPHYSIS THE LONG SHAFT OF THE BONE

EPIPHYSIS THE END OF LONG BONES, PROXIMAL AND DISTAL

PERIOSTEUM TOUGH MEMBRANE THAT COVERS THE BONE

ENDOSTEUM MEMBRANE THAT LINES THE MEDULLARY CANAL

MEDULLARY CANAL A CAVITY IN THE DIAPHYSIS

RED MARROW FOUND IN CERTAIN BONES AND PRODUCES BONE CELLS

YELLOW MARROW FOUND INSIDE THE MEDULLARY CANAL AND PRODUCES FAT CELLS

BONE INJURIES AND DISEASE OUCH

FRACTURES SIMPLE – BONE IS BROKEN, WITHOUT EXTERNAL WOUND, ALSO KNOWN AS CLOSED FRACTURE

COMPOUND – BONE IS BROKEN, SKIN AND SOFT TISSUE IS TORN AND THERE IS AN INCREASED CHANCE OF INFECTION

GREENSTICK- INCOMPLETE BREAK IN WHICH THE BONE IS PARTIALLY BROKEN AND PARTIALLY BENT

SPIRAL - BONE TWISTING RESULTING IN ONE OR MORE BREAKSV

COMMINUTED - BONE FRAGMENTS OR SPLINTERS INTO TWO OR MORE PIECES

 DISLOCATIONS  DISPLACEMENT OF BONE FROM ITS NORMAL POSITION IN A JOINT; LIGAMENTS MAY BE TORN AND STRETCHED

IMPACTED –BROKEN BONE ENDS JAM INTO EACH OTHER

BONE DISORDERS AND DISEASE

ARTHRITIS- INFLAMMATION OF BONES AT THE JOINTS

BURSITIS - INFLAMMATION OF THE BURSA ( A SAC OR CAVITY FILLED WITH SYNOVIAL FLUID 

KYPHOSIS- INCREASE IN THE CURVATURE OF THE SPINE RESULTING IN A HUNCHBAKED APPEARANCE

LORDOSIS – EXAGGERATED INWARD CURVATURE IN THE LUMBAR REGION OF THE SPINAL COLUMN

OSTEOMYLITIS - INFLAMMATION OF THE BONE

RICKETS- FAILURE OF BONES TO CALCIFY SUFFICIENTLY, HAMPERING GROWTH

SCOLIOSIS - SIDE- TO - SIDE CURVATURE OF THE SPINE

SPRAIN – INJURY TO LIGAMENTS RESULTING FROM WRENCHING OF A JOINT

TUBERCULOSIS- BONE DISEASE CAUSED BY TUBERCLE BACILLUS

TYPES OF MUSCLES

SKELETAL MUSCLES OR VOLUNTARY MUSCLES PROVIDE FOR VOLUNTARY MOVEMENT EXAMPLES ARE CHEWING, MOVEMENTS OF THE HEAD OR WALKING

SMOOTH OR INVOLUNTARY MUSCLES MUSCLES CONTRACT INDEPENDENT OF WILL EXAMPLES INCLUDE MUSCLES OF THE DIGESTIVE TRACT AND MUSCLES IN THE BLOOD VESSELS

CARDIAC MUSCLES FORMS THE HEART WALL AND PRODUCES A HEARTBEAT

MUSCLE DISORDERS

MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY PROGRESSIVE WASTING AND WEAKENING OF THE MUSCLES

PARALYSIS MUSCLES DO NOT CONTRACT BECAUSE NERVES CONTROLLING THEM ARE DISEASED OR INJURED

MUSCLE ATROPHY DECREASE IN MUSCLE SIZE DUE TO DISEASE

HYPERTROPHY INCREASE IN MUSCLE  SIZE RESULTING FROM INCREASED USE

SPASM A SUDDEN, VIOLENT AND INVOLUNTARY CONTRACTION OF A MUSCLE
