4 Classification of Bones
Short bone – cube shaped, i.e. carpus and tarsus Flat bone – plate of bone, i.e. scapula, rib, skull Irregular bone – complex shaped, i.e. vertebrae Sesamoid – small, seed-shaped bone, i.e. proximal and distal sesamoids, patella Long bone – bone is longer that it is wide, i.e. femur, tibia, humerus, etc. Anatomy & Physiology TM

7 Anatomy & Physiology TM
Types of Muscles Muscles are contractile organs responsible for the voluntary and involuntary movements of animals. Skeletal muscle –allows for all voluntary movement, appears to be striated when looked at under a microscope. Cardiac muscle – controls the involuntary beating of the heart, appears striated under a microscope. Smooth muscle – responsible for all other involuntary movement, such as breathing, digestion, peristalsis, blinking, etc. Anatomy & Physiology TM
