Impacts, Issues Pumping Up Muscles
Increasing muscle size and strength with drugs such as “andro” has unwanted side effects and can damage other organ systems

36.1 Invertebrate Skeletons
Hydrostatic skeleton An enclosed fluid that contracting muscles act upon (as in sea anemones, earthworms) Exoskeleton A hardened external skeleton found in some mollusks and all arthropods Endoskeleton An internal skeleton, as in echinoderms

mouth gastro-vascular cavity; the mouth can close and trap fluid inside this cavity Figure 36.2 Hydrostatic skeleton of a sea anemone. (a) Water is drawn into the gastrovascular cavity through the mouth. When the cavity is filled and mouth is closed, muscles can act on the trapped fluid and alter body shape. There are two sets of muscles: circular muscles ring the body; longitudinal ones run the length of the body. (b) One anemone inflated with water (left) and another that has expelled water from the gastrovascular cavity and pulled in its tentacles (right). Fig. 36-2a, p. 618

thorax longitudinal muscle contracts longitudinal muscle relaxes vertical muscle relaxes vertical muscle contracts Figure 36.4 Fly wing movement. Wings attach to the thorax at pivot points. When muscles inside the thorax contract and relax, the thorax changes shape and the wings pivot up and down at their attachment point. A Wings pivot down as the relaxation of vertical muscle and the contraction of longitudinal muscle pulls in sides of thorax. B Wings pivot up when the contraction of vertical muscle and relaxation of longitudinal muscle flattens the thorax. Fig. 36-4, p. 619

36.1 Key Concepts Invertebrate Skeletons
Contractile force exerted against a skeleton moves animal bodies In many invertebrates a fluid-filled body cavity is a hydrostatic skeleton Others have an exoskeleton of hard structures at the body surface Still others have a hard internal skeleton, or endoskeleton
13
36.2 The Vertebrate Endoskeleton
All vertebrates have an endoskeleton Usually consists primarily of bones Supports the body, site of muscle attachment Protects the spinal cord The vertebral column (backbone) is made up of individual vertebrae separated by intervertebral disks made of cartilage

Axial and Appendicular Skeleton

36.3 Bone Structure and Function
Bones have a variety of shapes and sizes Long bones (arms and legs) Flat bones (skull, ribs) Short bones (carpals) The human skeleton has 206 bones ranging from tiny ear bones to the massive femur
23
Bone Anatomy Bones consist of three types of living cells in a secreted extracellular matrix Osteoblasts build bones Osteocytes are mature osteoblasts Osteoclasts break down bone matrix Bone cavities contain bone marrow Red marrow in spongy bone forms blood cells Yellow marrow in long bones is mostly fat

Bone Functions
31
Bone Formation and Remodeling
The embryonic skeleton consists of cartilage which is modeled into bone, grows until early adulthood, and is constantly remodeled Bones and teeth store the body’s calcium Calcitonin slows release of calcium from bones Parathyroid hormone releases bone calcium Sex hormones encourage bone building Cortisol slows bone building
32
Long Bone Formation
33
Embryo: cartilage model of bone forms Fetus:
blood vessel invades model; osteoblasts start producing bone tissue; marrow cavity forms Newborn: remodeling and growth continue; secondary bone-forming centers appear at knobby ends of bone Figure 36.10 Long bone formation, starting with osteoblast activity in a cartilage model formed earlier in the embryo. The bone-forming cells are active first in the shaft region, then at the knobby ends. In time, cartilage is left only at the ends. Adult: mature bone Fig , p. 623
34
About Osteoporosis Osteoporosis (“porous bones”)
When more calcium is removed from bone than is deposited, bone become brittle and break easily Proper diet and exercise help keep bones healthy

Osteoporosis

36.4 Skeletal Joints—Where Bones Meet
Area of contact or near contact between bones Three types of joints Fibrous joints (teeth sockets): no movement Cartilaginous joints (vertebrae): little movement Synovial joints (knee): much movement
37
Synovial Joints In synovial joints, bones are separated by a fluid-filled cavity, padded with cartilage, and held together by dense connective tissue (ligaments) Different synovial joints have different movements Ball-and-socket joints (shoulder) Gliding joints (wrist and ankles) Hinged joints (elbows and knees)

Three Types of Joints

(b) Simplified diagram of the structure of the left knee with muscles stripped away. Several ligaments attach the femur to the tibia and chunks of cartilage called menisci help keep the bones properly aligned.

36.5 Those Aching Joints We ask a lot of our joints when we engage in sports, carry out repetitive tasks, or strap on a pair of high heels
43
Joint Injuries and Diseases
Common joint injuries Sprained ankle; torn cruciate ligaments in knee; torn meniscus in knee; dislocations Arthritis (chronic inflammation) Osteoarthritis; rheumatoid arthritis; gout Bursitis (inflammation of a bursa)
44
36.2-36.5 Key Concepts Vertebrate Skeletons
Vertebrates have an endoskeleton of cartilage, bone, or both Bones interact with muscles to move the body; they also protect and support organs, and store minerals Blood cells form in some bones A joint is a place where bones meet; there are several kinds
45
36.6 Skeletal–Muscular Systems
Muscle fibers Long, cylindrical cells with multiple nuclei that hold contractile filaments Tendons attach skeletal muscle to bone Muscle contraction transmits force to bone and makes it move Muscles and bones interact as a lever system Many skeletal muscles work in opposing pairs
46
Skeletal–Muscular Action
47
C The first muscle group in the upper hindlimb contracts again and draws it back toward body.
B An opposing muscle group attached to the limb forcefully contracts and pulls it back. The contractile force, applied against the rock, now propels the frog forward. Figure 36.14 A frog on a rock demonstrating how small contractions and the action of opposing muscles can cause big movements. A A muscle attached to each upper hindlimb contracts and pulls it slightly forward relative to main body axis. Fig , p. 626
48
Opposing Muscle Groups
49
Triceps contracts, pulls the forelimb down.
Triceps relaxes. Triceps contracts, pulls the forelimb down. Biceps contracts at the same time, and pulls forelimb up. At the same time, biceps relaxes. Figure 36.15 Two opposing muscle groups in human arms. A When the triceps relaxes and its opposing partner (biceps) contracts, the elbow joint flexes and the forearm is pulled upward. B When the triceps contracts and the biceps relaxes, the forearm is extended downward. Fig , p. 626

These are the skeletal muscles that gym enthusiasts are familiar with; many more are not shown. Also labeled is the Achilles tendon, the largest tendon in the body and the most frequently injured. It attaches muscles in the calf to the heel bone. (b) Tendons at a synovial joint. Bursae form between tendons and bones or some other structure. These fluid-filled sacs help reduce friction between adjacent tissues.

36.6 Key Concepts The Muscle–Bone Partnership
Skeletal muscles are bundles of muscle fibers that interact with bones and with one another Some cause movements by working as pairs or groups; others oppose or reverse the action of a partner muscle Tendons attach skeletal muscles to bones
