Introduction to the Skeletal & Muscular Systems by: Mrs. Hobbs
2
Getter Done The skeletal systems functions are: ◦ Protection/support ◦ Movement ◦ make red blood cells ◦ Storage; can store minerals to be used by the body later and fat that can be used for energy
3
Parts is Parts! There are two “parts” to this system The axial Has 80 bones; found in the upper body ◦ Skull ◦ Thorax (made up of the sternum and ribs) ◦ Vertebral column The Appendicular Has 126 bones; in lower body and limbs ◦ Arms/legs ◦ Pelvic bone ◦ Lower spine
4
Remember me… You will need to have these 16 bones. ◦ Use can use your notes to study for the quiz on JANUARY 8 th ! Spelling counts ◦ Ready? Cranium Mandible Scapula Clavicle Sternum Ribcage Humerus Vertebral Column Radius Ulna Coxal Femur Tibia Fibula Patella Phalanges
5
What’s your type? ◦ Long bone: Is longer than it is wide, with growth plates at either end. Examples: Femur, Radius, Tibia, Phalanges ◦ Short bone: As wide as they are long & have a primary function of providing support and stability Examples: Carpals, Tarsals There are 4 main types of bone in the human body.
6
What’s your type? ◦ Flat bone: strong, flat plates of bone with the main function of providing protection to the bodies vital organs and being a base for muscular attachment. Example: Cranium, Sternum, Rib, Scapula ◦ Irregular bone: bones in the body which do not fall into any other category, due to their non- uniform shape. Example: Mandible, Vertebrae There are 4 main types of bone in the human body.
7
JOINTED TOGETHER There are six types of joints in the human body. Fission joints- Allow little or no movement Pivot joints- one bone is stationary, another rotates around it glide joints- two separate moving bones meet Hinge joint- movement in 1 direction, like a hinge Ball & Socket joints- bones can swing in almost any direction Saddle joint-One bone is convex, the other concave; allows for movement in two directions.

WHICH IS WHICH? Which joint type are they missing?

MUSCULAR SYSTEM! Day 2
12
Every System Needs a System… What do muscles do? ◦ Allow for locomotion Muscles move bones using tendons and ligaments ◦ Moves substance throughout the body Esophagus- digestive system Bladder – urinary system Heart – cardiovascular system ◦
13
Is a muscle just a muscle? There are 3 types of muscle.
14
Putting the Two Together Muscles are “bound” to the skeleton with a special connective tissue called_________. Bones are attached to other bones with a special connective tissue called _________. tendons Ligaments
15
Need a Few Good Muscles. Muscle are grouped 2 ways: muscles you can control by thinking about them. Arms Abs Back & so on… Involuntary Muscles that work without me thinking about them. Heart Diaphragm Stomach & so on Voluntary
16
Partner up! Skeletal Muscles work in pairs. ◦ One muscle must contract (get smaller) ◦ while the other muscle lengthens (gets longer)
17
Everybody Flex now! Flexor ◦ These muscles are what bend the joints. They “pull” the joint into a bent position. Extensor ◦ muscles that straighten the joint. Voluntary muscles are further classified as either a:
