Skeletal System Part II
Biology 2121
2
Bone Surface Markings Depressions and Openings Processes
Fissures, foramens, fossa’s and a meatus Processes Form joints Condyles, heads, facets Form attachment points for CT Epicondyle, crest, spinous process, trochanter, tubercle, tuberosity
3
Fissures, Foramens, Fossas, etc.
Eye Socket – Fissures Superior and inferior orbital fissures Optic Canal Foramens Foramen Magnum Mental Foramen Jugular Foramen Meatus Internal and External Acoustic meatus Fossa Mandibular Fossa
4
Sinuses
5
Processes That Form Joints
Condyles Tibial Condyles Mandibular Condyles Heads Humerus, Femur Facets Ribs
6
Muscle and Ligament Attachment Sites – Projections
Upper and Lower Limbs Epicondyles – femur and humerus Trochanter – femur Tuberosity – Deltoid (humerus) Tubercle – humerus
7
Projections- Ligament and Muscle Attachment– Other Locations
Vertebrae Spinous process Transverse process Pelvis Iliac spine Iliac crest
8
Muscle and Ligament Attachments
Scapula Coracoid process Acromion
9
The Skull 22 Cranial and Facial Bones
‘Flat Bones’ formed by intramembranous ossification Spongy bone in-between compact bone Cranial bones – held together by sutures Sutures are immovable joints (synarthrosis)
10
The Vertebral Column Vertebral Regions Keeping them together
Longitudinal ligaments Intervertebral joints Intervetebral Discs Nucleus pulposus Annuls fibrosus “herniated discs” Superior and Inferior Articulating processes
11
Vertebral Column Vertebral Foramen- Canal Intervertebral Foramina
Spinal Cord Intervertebral Foramina Spinal Nerves Rib Connection Thoracic – demifacets Transverse costal facets
12
Sternum Ties it all Together
Anatomical Landmarks Jugular notch Sternal Angle Xiphisternal joint Clavicular Notch Sternoclavicular joint Coastal Cartilage and Ribs
13
Upper Limb Notes Important Joints Glenohumeral Elbow Radiocarpal
Capitulum – Radial Head Trochlea – Coronoid process of Ulna Radiocarpal Radius and proximal carpals
14
Pelvic-Hip Girdle Notes
Important Joints Coxal Sacroiliac Hip bones are called ‘ox coxae’ Three Regions Ilium Ischium Pubis
15
Comparing the Male and Female Pelvis
Tilted forward more Cavity Bones are lighter, thinner Acetabula is smaller More rounded Male Pelvis Heavier, thicker More acute angle Cavity more narrow
16
Lower Limb Notes Femur articulates with the pelvis
Hip – coxal joint Femur articulates with the lower leg bones Femoropatellar joint Tibiofibular joint Intertarsal joint Knee Joint
17
The Foot Tarsus Arches of the Foot Seven bones Calcaneus Talus
Heel bone Talus Articulates with tibia and fibula Ankle! Arches of the Foot Talus – ‘keystone’ bone of medial longitudinal arch Cuboid – lateral longitudinal arch
