M USCULOSKELETAL S YSTEM Bones & Muscles
2
THE SKELETAL SYSTEM All of the bones in the body and the tissues (tendons, ligament, and cartilage) that connect them. Skeleton: job Provide support/shape Enables you to move Protects your organs Produces blood cells Stores minerals and other materials 206 BONES IN YOUR BODY At birth, you have about 300 bones

THE SKELETON www.teachpe.com/anatomy/skeleton.php
4
B ONES A RE ALIVE!! Bones are alive in the body Have nerves, blood vessels, cells and tissues
5
W HAT IS BONE MADE OF ? Compact Bone (outer layer) hard or compact bone Spongy bone inside (holes) lighter and slightly flexible Marrow jelly-like bone Middle (produce new blood cells)
6
J OINTS Joint the place where 2 bones meet There are 3 kinds of joints: Fixed prevent movement, found in the skull Semi-movable permit limited movement, vertebral column Moveable wide range of movement hinge ball and socket saddle - gliding joint – intercarpal pivot
7
H INGE J OINT Forward and backward motion Elbow and knee
8
B ALL & S OCKET JOINT Broad range of motion Shoulder and hips
9
P IVOT JOINT One bone rotates around another neck
10
G LIDING J OINT Allows one bone to slide over another Wrist and ankle
13
B ONE / MUSCLE ( CONNECTIVE ) TISSUES Cartilage Firm tissue at the ends of bones @ the joints (nose/ears) Ligaments – connect bones to one another @ joints, elastic (connective tissue) Tendons – connect muscles and bones, tough/non-elastic (contract muscle) _______________________________________ Synovial fluid fluid that protects the ends of bones
14
OSTEOPOROSIS Condition in which the bones become weak and break easily As you age, bones lose some minerals
15
MUSCLES Make up the bulk of the body and 1/3 of its weight Provides movement and force 3 types of muscle Made up of muscle fibers Works in opposable pairs (one contracts, the other relaxes)
16
3 TYPES OF MUSCLE 1. Skeletal – attached to your bones and provides the force to move your bones, striated (voluntary) 2. Smooth – inside many internal organs (stomach) involuntary, move slowly 3. Cardiac found only in your heart involuntary and striated, does not get tired
17
V OLUNTARY VS. I NVOLUNTARY M USCLE Voluntary Under your conscious control skeletal muscle Involuntary not under your conscious control (breathing) smooth and cardiac
18
M USCLE C ONTRACTION An all or none response – they contract or remain relaxed
19
N ERVES Threadlike, carry impulses that stimulate the muscles to contract
