Functions of Skeletal System |
|
Definition
*Rigid framework of human body. *Gives support and shape. *Protects vital organs. *Assists in movement. *Manufactures blood cells. *Storage of calcium and other minerals. |

Term
|
Definition
*Hard, dense outer shell *Completely covers bone *Thick along the shaft *Provides strength |

Cancellous Bone (structure) |
|
Definition
*Porous and spongy *Have trabeculae *Filled with marrow *Articular ends |
|

Definition
End of diaphysis, tends to be wider than shaft. |

Epiphyseal plate (Long bone) |
|
Definition
Part of Epiphysis in growing bones (not in mature bones). Where growth of bone occurs. Made up of cartilagious material. |
|

Medullary Canal(Long bone) |
|
Definition
Hollow center of diaphysis, contains marrow and passage for nutrients. |

|
Definition
Small bones located where tendons cross the ends of long bones in the extremities. Develope within the tendon and protectit from excessive wear. Ex. Petella. |
|

Term
|
Definition
Holes, depressions, ridges, bumps, grooves and other markings on bones that serve various purposes such as attachments for muscles, tendons, and ligaments. |

|
Definition
*Allows motion *Provides stability *Bares weight of body *Contains synovial fluid-lubricates joint and nourishes the bone. |
|

Definition
Fibrous joint, no motion, provides strength and shape, shape allows bones to interlock. Ex; suture joints-skull |

Synovial Joints (Diarthrodial Joints) |
|
Definition
*Allows free motion *No direct union between bone ends *cavity filled w/ synovial fluid *outer line is strong fibrous tissue *Synovial membrane (inner lining) produces fluid. |
