What is Cartilage? Cartilage is connective tissue that is more flexible than bone Cushions bones
5
Cartilage
6
Bones 1. Supports body 2. Protects Organs
3. Produce new red blood cells in the bone marrow

Joints help the skeleton move the body.
11
What are the two kinds of joints in the body?

14
Where It’s Found in the Body
Joint Kind of Motion Where It’s Found in the Body Hinge Forward or backward motion Knee Elbow Ball-&-Socket Greatest range of motion Shoulder Blade Hips Pivot One bone to rotate around another Neck Gliding One bone to slide over another Wrist Ankles
15
When do bone cells form new bone tissue?
New bone tissue forms to fill the gap between the broken ends of the bone.
16
Ligaments The bones in movable joints are held together by strong connective tissues is called LIGAMENTS Connect bone to bone
17
Ligaments
18
Tendons Attach muscles to bones
19
Marrow The spaces in bone that contain a soft connective tissue is called MARROW
20
Bone Marrow
21
Muscles Motion of organs Locomotion of Body Interacts with all organ systems causing movement of tissues and organs
22
Muscular System
25
3 Types of Muscles
26
Skeletal Muscles Type of striated muscle, attached to the skeleton.
Facilitate movement, by applying force to bones and joints; via contraction. Contract voluntarily, although they can contract involuntarily.
27
Skeletal Muscle
28
Cardiac Muscle Type of striated muscle found within the heart.
Function is to "pump" blood through the circulatory system by contracting
29
Cardiac Muscle
30
Smooth Muscle Type of non-striated muscle, found in organs blood vessels, the bladder, the uterus, and the digestive system
31
Smooth Muscle
33
Arthritis Painful Inflammation of freely movable joints.
Immune system attacks tissues around joints Symptom stiffening & swelling
36
Gout Systemic disease (throughout body) Build up of uric acid
Settles in joints causing inflammation and swelling
39
Tendonitis Inflammation in the tendons
40
