1
The Skeletal System
2
Parts of the skeletal system
4
Two subdivisions of the skeleton Axial skeleton Appendicular skeleton
5
Two subdivisions of the skeleton
6
Adult skeleton approximately 206 bones Axial: 80 bones Appendicular: 126 bones
7
Two basic types of bone tissue Compact bone Homogeneous Spongy bone Many open spaces
8
Classification of Bones based on Shape
17
Anatomy of a Long Bone Epiphysis
18
Anatomy of a Long Bone
19
Diaphysis
20
Anatomy of a Long Bone Periosteum Sharpey ’ s fibers Arteries
21
Anatomy of a Long Bone
23
Articular cartilage Covers surface of the epiphyses
24
Anatomy of a Long Bone Epiphyseal plate Epiphyseal line
25
Anatomy of a Long Bone
27
Medullary cavity Cavity inside of the shaft
29
Bone Markings Are bones smooth surfaces? Femur
30
Are bones smooth surfaces? Tibia
31
Bone Markings Are bones smooth surfaces? Mandible
32
Bone Markings Are bones smooth surfaces? Optical canal
33
Compact vs. Spongy bone
34
Microscopic Anatomy of Compact Bone Osteocytes: mature bone cells Lacunae:
35
Microscopic Anatomy of Compact Bone Lamella:
36
Microscopic Anatomy of Compact Bone Central (Haverersian) Canals:
37
Microscopic Anatomy of Compact Bone Osteon (Haversian System):
38
Microscopic Anatomy of Compact Bone
39
Canaliculi: Hint: which way do central canals run?
40
Microscopic Anatomy of Compact Bone
41
This eleaborate network of canals ensures bone cells are well nourished What significance does this have?
42
Perforating (Volkmann’s) canals:
44
Microscopic Anatomy of Compact Bone
46
Bone Formation, Growth, & Remodeling Mostly hyaline cartilage Replaced by bone
47
Bone Formation, Growth, & Remodeling Bone starting to replace cartilage Epiphyseal plate cartilage Articular cartilage Spongy bone In a childIn a fetusIn an embryo New bone forming Growth in bone width Growth in bone length Epiphyseal plate cartilage New bone forming Blood vessels Hyaline cartilage New center of bone growth Medullary cavity Bone collar Hyaline cartilage model (a)
48
Bone Formation, Growth, & Remodeling Osteocytes—mature bone cells Osteoblasts—bone-forming cells Osteoclasts—bone-destroying cells
49
Growth & Remodeling New cartilage is continuously formed Older cartilage becomes ossified
50
Growth & Remodeling Osteocytes can sense areas of stress Enhances the process Balance of calcium levels
51
Fractures
57
Treated by Reduction: Closed Open
