Skeleton! 11/10/12
2
Bones have 5 functions Protect internal organs Support the body
Make blood cells Store minerals Provide for muscle attachment allowing movement
3
Moveable joint—allows total movement
What are some examples that you can think of? Ball-and-socket; hinge; gliding Immovable joint—allows partial movement What are some examples you can think of? Bones of the skull and the pelvis What do you think the difference is between a movable joint and an immovable joint?
4
Superior verses Inferior
The apple is superior to the hotdog (above) while the hotdog is inferior to the apple (below) Superior—up; point or region lying above another point or region Inferior—down; point or region lying below another point or region Superior verses Inferior
5
Medial—point or region lying closest to the midline of the body
Lateral—point or region lying away from the midline of the body In this example would the tie or the briefcase be medial? Which one is lateral? Medial verses Lateral
6
Ventral—front; point or region lying closest to the front of the body
Dorsal—back; point or region lying closest to the back of the body Podium verses white board? Which is ventral and which is dorsal? Ventral verses Dorsal
7
Proximal verses Distal
Proximal—point closest to an articular point with body Distal—point farthest from an articular point with body If 1 is the part connected to the ground, then 1 is proximal to the ground and 6 is distal This is easier to explain on a skeleton Proximal verses Distal
8
One of the most important terms to know— refers to the meeting or intersection of two or more bones
Standard Anatomical Position is the position of that body that we use to describe the body Human standing, feet together and pointing forward, palms out, thumbs facing away from the body, looking forward (no bones crossed) Articulation and SAP
9
Axial Skeleton vs. Appendicular Skeleton
Axial Skeleton—refers to the bones of the trunk (vertebrae, ribs, sternum Appendicular Skeleton—refers to bones of the limbs (shoulder and pelvis) Axial Skeleton vs. Appendicular Skeleton
10
28 bones of the skull Frontal Ethmoid Parietals (2) Lacrimals (2)
Temporals (2) Inferior Nasal Conchae (2) Occipital Palatines (2) Maxillae (2) Vomer Zygomatics (2) Incus (2) Nasals (2) Malleus (2) Sphenoid Stapes (2) Mandible Only need to know the bones on the left side but the others exist 28 bones of the skull
11
The Skull vs Cranium Cranium Skull
Mention post-cranium = everything but the skull Skull and cranium are different: skull consists of everything but the mandible; cranium= skull + mandible Skull Cranium The Skull vs Cranium
14
Teeth 32 permanent teeth 20 deciduous teeth (baby) Tooth anatomy
Crown (enamel) Root (cementum) Enamel is the hardest bone in the body Teeth
15
Types: incisors, canine, premolar, molar
in adults 2.1.2 in children
16
Dental formula = / some humans have actually lost their 3rd molar
17
Eat breakfast at 7; lunch at 12; dinner at 5
Sacral (4-6 fused to make sacrum Coccygeal (3-5, fused to make coccyx)
18
Cervical Vertebrae 7 cervical vertebrae Make up the neck
Transverse foramina (hole for arties that supply blood to the brain) Cervical Vertebrae
19
Atlas C1 (1st cervical vertebra) Has no body
Articulates with axis (C2) Allows you to nod yes Atlas
20
Axis C2 (second cervical vertebra)
Has prominense called dens that allows head to rotate (no) Axis
21
Thoracic Vertebrae 12 vertebrae Have costal facets
No transverse formaina Facets for rib attachments
22
Lumbar Vertebrae 5 vertebrae
Largest because they carry the most weight (support the most amount of weight) No costal facets or transverse foramina Lumbar Vertebrae
23
Sacral/Coccygeal Vertebrae
Usually 5 sacral, sometimes 4 or 6 These vertebrae fuse in adulthood to make the sacrum Sacrum is very strong and stable Flared wings on the side (alae) provide surface for auricular surface that articulates with the illium 3-5 vertebrae fuse to make the coccyx Sacral/Coccygeal Vertebrae
24
Ox Coxa/Innominate (pelvis)
Os coxa = 2 large bones of pelvis, join together to make pelvic girdle 3 bones fuse together in adulthood at acetabulum Illium—upper portion Ischium—posterior bone Pubis—anterior portion Ox Coxa/Innominate (pelvis)
26
Composed of 3 segments: Manubrium Body Xiphoid process Sternum
27
Ribs 12 ribs Ribs 1-7 are true ribs Ribs 8-10 are false ribs
Head and tubercle articulate with thoracic vertebrae Ribs 1-7 are true ribs Ribs 8-10 are false ribs Ribs 11 and 12 are floating ribs True ribs—articulate with sternum False ribs—don’t articulate with sternum but only to cartilage Floating ribs—no connection at all to the sternum Ribs
28
Clavicle Medial end is rounded for articulation with sternum
Lateral end is flattened for articulation with the scapula Part of the shoulder girdle Clavicle
29
Scapula Triangular, flat bone
On upper back 2 projections for muscle attachments for arms and upper back Has a glenoid fossa—articulates with head of the humerus Scapula
30
Humerus Largest arm bone
Rounded head articulates with glenoid fossa of scapula Distal end articulates with radius and ulna Humerus
31
Radius and Ulna Radius Ulna Lateral bone of forearm
Medial bone of forearm Articulates proximally with radius and laterally with radius Radius and Ulna
32
Wrist and Hand Consists of: Carpals—8 wrist bones
Metacarpals—make up body of living hand between wrist and projection of the fingers Numbered 1-5 Phalanges—bones of the fingers Proximal middle and distal Thumb has only proximal and distal Wrist and Hand
34
Largest leg bone Rounded head at proximal end articulates with acetabulum of ox coxa Distal end articulates with the tibia Femur
35
Also known as the sesamoid bone
Knee caps! Patella
36
Tibia and Fibula Tibia Fibula
Articulates with femur proximally and fibula laterally Medial malleolus of the distal tibia forms medial projection of ankle (inside ankle bone) Fibula Articulates with tibia laterally Lateral malleolus of the distal fibula forms the lateral projection of the ankle (outside ankle bone) Tibia and Fibula
37
Ankle and Foot Tarsals—7 bones that make up the ankle
Metatarsals—make up body of foot Numbered 1-5 Phalanges Analogous to phalanges of the hand Ankle and Foot
38
