5
Frontal Bone Forms the forehead Forms the roof of the eye sockets Forms the forehead Forms the roof of the eye sockets
6
Parietal Bones Consists of two bones Forms the sides and roof of the cranial cavity Consists of two bones Forms the sides and roof of the cranial cavity
7
Temporal Bones Consists of two bones Forms the lower sides of the cranium and part of the cranial floor Consists of two bones Forms the lower sides of the cranium and part of the cranial floor

The Vertebral Column Composed of 33 bones Encloses and protects the spinal cord Supports the head Composed of 33 bones Encloses and protects the spinal cord Supports the head
14
Bones of the Vertebral Column Cervical Vertebrae—7 bones located in the neck Thoracic Vertebrae—12 bones connected to the ribs Lumbar Vertebrae—5 bones in the lower back Sacral Vertebrae—5 pelvic bones Coccygeal Vertebrae—4 tailbones Cervical Vertebrae—7 bones located in the neck Thoracic Vertebrae—12 bones connected to the ribs Lumbar Vertebrae—5 bones in the lower back Sacral Vertebrae—5 pelvic bones Coccygeal Vertebrae—4 tailbones

22
Bones of the Lower Extremities Femur Patella Tibia Fibula Tarsals Metatarsals Phalanges Femur Patella Tibia Fibula Tarsals Metatarsals Phalanges
24
Joints The points of contact between bones –Hinge Joints –Gliding Joints –Ball and Socket Joints The points of contact between bones –Hinge Joints –Gliding Joints –Ball and Socket Joints
25
Hinge Joints Allows for extension and retraction of an appendage
26
Gliding Joints Bones slide past each other
27
Ball and Socket Joints Allows for rotational movement in almost any direction
28
Disease and Disorders Fractures Scoliosis Osteoarthritis Fractures Scoliosis Osteoarthritis
29
Fractures Types of fractures –Closed or simple fracture The bone is broken and the skin is intact –Open or compound fracture The bone is broken and the skin is cut by the bone Types of fractures –Closed or simple fracture The bone is broken and the skin is intact –Open or compound fracture The bone is broken and the skin is cut by the bone
31
Scoliosis Abnormal lateral curvature of the spine
32
Osteoarthritis Arthritis that is caused by the breakdown and loss of cartilage in the joints
