Ch 5 Part 2 The Appendicular Skeleton

Bones Song #1
3
The Appendicular Skeleton
Composed of 126 bones, which attach the limbs to the axial skeleton Allows us to move and manipulate objects Limbs (appendages) Pectoral Girdle Pelvic Girdle
4
The Pectoral Girdle Bones: Scapula Clavicle
5
The Pectoral Girdle Consists of: Not in Notes page
2 clavicles 2 scapulae Connects with the axial skeleton only at the manubrium
6
The Pectoral (Shoulder) Girdle
Composed of two bones Clavicle – collarbone (Both start with C) It attaches to the arm away from the thorax and helps prevent shoulder dislocation Scapula – shoulder blade (Both start with S) Triangular and are commonly called wings These bones allow the upper limb to have exceptionally free movement Shoulder girdle is light and flexible, but very susceptible to dislocation
7
The Clavicle
8
The Clavicles (Not in Notes)
Also called collarbones Long, S-shaped bones Originate at the manubrium (sternal end) Articulate with the scapulae (acromial end)
9
Processes of the scapula
Acromion Process – enlarged end of the spine and attaches to the clavicle Coracoid Process – points over the shoulder and anchors some muscles
10
Borders of the Scapula Superior Inferior angle Vertebral (medial)
Axillary (lateral) Glenoid cavity – a shallow socket that receives the head of the arm bone

The Upper Limbs Arms, forearms, wrists, and hands
Note: arm (brachium) = 1 bone, the humerus
15
Bones of the Upper Limb The upper arm is formed by single bone
Humerus (also called arm bone) Head of the humerus or proximal end fits into the glenoid cavity The distal end forms a joint with the ulna Figure 5.21a–b

The Humerus
17
The Lower Arm Bones (Forearm): Radius Ulna
18
Bones of the Upper Limb The lower arm (forearm) is formed by 2 bones
Radius – located on the lateral side or thumb side Ulna – located on the medial side or pinky side Figure 5.21c
19
Bones of the Upper Limb The hand
Carpals – eight bones arranged in two rows form the carpus, or the wrist Metacarpals – palm Phalanges – fingers Each hand consists of 14 phalanges – three in each finger Making proximal, middle, and distal The thumb is an exception, it has two, proximal and distal

Bones of the Pelvic Girdle
24
Bones of the Pelvic Girdle
Two Hip bones (Coxal Bones) Composed of three pair of fused bones Ilium Ischium Pubic bone
25
Functions of Pelvic Girdle
The total weight of the upper body rests on the pelvis Protects several organs Urinary bladder Reproductive organs Part of the large intestine
26
1. Ilium: The ilium connects posteriorly with the sacrum at the sacroiliac joint It is a large, flaring bone that forms most of the hip bone If you put your hands on your hips, they are resting on the ilium The upper edge of the ilium is the iliac crest
27
2. Ischium The ischium is the sitdown bone because it forms the inferior part of the coxal bone The ischial tuberosity is a roughened area that receives body weight when you are sitting
28
3. Pubis: The pubis is the most anterior part of a coxal bone
The pubic bones of each hipbone fuse anteriorly to form a cartilaginous joint called the pubic symphysis
29
Bones of the Pelvic Girdle
The ilium, ishcium, and pubis fuse at a deep socket called the acetabulum (hip socket) The acetabulum receives the head of the thigh bone (femur) The male and female pelvis differs
30
The Pelvis Figure 5.23a

Gender Differences of the Pelvis

34
Comparing the Male and Female Pelvis
smoother Lighter Wider Don’t write: less prominent muscle and ligament attachments
35
Pelvis Modifications for Childbearing
Enlarged pelvic outlet Broad pubic angle (> 100°) Less curvature of sacrum and coccyx Wide, circular pelvic inlet Broad, low pelvis Ilia project laterally, not upwards
36
Bones of the Lower Limbs
The thigh has one bone Femur – thigh bone Note: Leg = lower leg Thigh = upper leg Figure 5.24a–b
37
Bones of the Lower Limbs
Femur (thigh) Patella (kneecap) Tibia and fibula (leg) Tarsals (ankle) Metatarsals (foot) Phalanges (toes)
38
Femur: Heaviest, strongest bone in the body
The proximal end has a ball-like head, a neck, and greater and lesser trochanters It has many sites for muscle attachment such as the trochanters and gluteal tuberosity The head of the femur articulates or moves with the acetabulum of the hip bone in a deep, secure socket Distally, the femur has lateral and medial condyles that articulate or move with the tibia below
39
The Patella Also called the kneecap
40
Bones of the Lower Limbs
The lower** leg has two bones Tibia Fibula Figure 5.24c
41
Tibia: Larger and more medial (towards the middle of body), Supports body weight At the proximal end, the medial (inner) and lateral (outer) condyles articulate, or move, with the distal end of the femur forming the knee joint Patella is the kneecap The patellar tendon attaches to the tibial tuberosity, a roughened area on the anterior tibial surface Distally, the medial malleolus is the inner bulge of the ankle
42
Fibula: Lies alongside the tibia is thin and sticklike
The fibula has no part in forming the knee joint The distal end has the lateral malleolus, forming the outer part of the ankle
43
Bones of the Lower Limbs
The foot Calcaneus (Heel) Tarsus (ankle) Metatarsals (sole) Phalanges (toes) Figure 5.25
44
Foot Supports our body weight and serves as a lever that allows us to propel or move our bodies forward when we walk or run Tarsus makes up the ankle It is composed of seven tarsal bones Most weight is carried by two tarsal bones: Calcaneus or heel bone Talus (ankle bone) located between the tibia & the calcaneus Five metatarsals form the sole Phalanges make up the toes Each toe has three phalanges, except for the great toe which has two phalanges
45
Arches of the Foot Bones of the foot are arranged to form three strong arches Medial longitudinal Lateral longitudinal One transverse Figure 5.26
