SKELETAL SYSTEM
Skeletal System

Two parts of skeletal system
 Axial
– head, trunk, spine, sacrum
 Appendicular – Extremeties

Bone classifications
 Long
bones – forearm, legs
 Short bones – cube-like, ankles, wrist
 Flat bones – plate-like, skull
 Irregular – unusual shape, spine, face
 Sesamoid – bone in tendon, patella
Long bones

Parts
 Epiphysis
– expanded portion at ends of bone,
articulates (creates joint) with another bone
 Coated
in articular cartilage.
 Diaphysis
– shaft of the bone, located between
epiphyses.
Long bones

Parts
 Periosteum
 Excluding
– tough, fibrous tissue covering bones
articular cartilage on epiphysial ends
 Continuous with ligaments and tendons.
 Location for a shin splint

 Location for a shin splint
Long bones

Parts
 Bony
process – location for ligament and tendon
attachment.
 Ligament
connects 2 bones (sprain a ligament)
 Tendon connects muscle to bone (strain a tendon and muscle)
 Grooves
and openings – passageways for blood
vessels and nerves
 Depression – large grooves where bones may
articulate or large soft tissues fit.
Long bones

Compact bone
 Wall
of diaphysis
 Continuous bone matrix with no gaps
 Thick and solid
Long bones

Spongy bone
 Epiphysis
 Thin
layer of compact bone
 Branching bony plates called trabeculae
 Reduces weight of bone
 Strong vs compression
Long bones

Medullary cavity
 Compact
bone forms an inner tube
 Contains bone-forming cells (endosteum)
 Filled with marrow

Marrow – 2 types
 Yellow
– stores fat
 Usually
 Red
in long bones
– produce blood cells

8 major parts of a long bone
 Epiphysis
- ends
 Diaphysis - shaft
 Compact bone - outer part of bone
 Spongy bone - inner portion of bone
 Periosteum - outer connective tissue
 Endosteum - connective tissue lining medullary cavity
 Medullary canal - opening in center of bone
 Articular cartilage - cartilage at joint surfaces
Long bones

Osteon –
 osteocytes
(bone cells) and intercellular material
 Form cylinder-shaped units around a central canal
Compact Bone
Compact Bone

Osteocytes – bone cells, Compact bone
 Bony
chamber where bone cells are located are
lacunae
 Form circles around a central canal (Haversian canal)
 Osteocytes transport nutrients and waste to and from
nearby cells through canaliculi
 Bone itself (lamellae) is largely collagen and inorganic
salts (Ca, K, P).
 Collagen
– gives strength
 Inorganic salts – make hard and resists crushing
Compact Bone

Osteocytes – bone cells
 Central
canal of osteon contains blood vessels and
nerve tissue
 Central canals have transverse (across the length)
canals to connect blood vessels and nerves
 Perforating
canals
 AKA Volkmann’s canals
Compact Bone
Spongy Bone

Spongy bone – also composed of osteocytes
 Bone
does not aggregate (come together) around
central canal like in compact bone.
 Cells are located within trabeculae.
Spongy Bone
Review Questions




How are bones classified?
What are the 7 major parts of a long bone?
How do compact and spongy bone differ in
structure?
Explain the parts of an osteon.
Bone Development and Growth



Starts to develop in first few weeks.
Continue to grow into adulthood.
2 ways bones form to replace existing connective
tissue
 Intramembranous
bones – form from sheets of
connective tissue
 Endochondral bones – form from masses of cartilage
Bone Development and Growth

Intramembranous bone –
Forms broad, flat bones of skull
 Membrane-like connective tissue that is
filled with osteoblasts – bone forming
cells

“osteo” – bone
 “blasts” – primary forming cells


Once the osteoblast is fully surrounded
by bone and is no longer able to create
new bone it is called an osteocyte
“Osteo” – bone
 “cyte” – cell


Bone Development and Growth

After maturation of bone
 Wolf’s
Law – bone will adapt to stress and use with
resorption or deposition.
 The
more stress on a bone the more bone will be deposited
 If not used resorption will occur because the body will not
waste resources.
 This is why muscle attachment sites are more exaggerated

Tibial tuberosity – Osgood Schlatters.

Function of bone

4 functions
 Support
and protect
 Movement
 Blood cell formation
 Inorganic salt storage
Function of bone

Support and protection
 Skull
 Eyes,
 Ribs,
brain, ears
sternum
 Heart,
lungs
 Spine
 spinal
cord
 Pelvis
 Bladder,
reproductive organs
Function of bone

Movement
 Bones
allow for muscular attachment for body
movement
 Bones articulate (connect) to form joints
 Levers – 4 components
 Rigid
bar
 Fulcrum or pivot point
 Object moved or resistance
 A source of force
Function of bone

Levers
 1st
class – like scissors
 Resistance
at one end, fulcrum in the middle, force on the
other
 Seesaw, elbow extension
 2nd
class – like a wheel barrow
 Fulcrum
end
at one end, resistance in the middle, force on other
Function of bone

Levers
 3rd
class - tweezers
 Fulcrum
on one end, force in the middle, resistance on the
other.
 Most common type of lever in the body
 Least efficient type of lever

Function of bone
Function of bone

Blood cell formation
 Hemopoiesis
– “hemo” = blood, “poeisis” = production
 Marrow in medullar cavities
 Yellow
– fat
 Red – forms blood cells



Red because it contains hemoglobin (“hemo” = blood, “globin” =
protein)
Carries oxygen within blood cells and that is why it is red.
Primarily found in flat bones of skull, ribs, sternum, clavicles,
vertebrae, and pelvis
Function of bone

Inorganic salt stores
 Salts
account for 70% or weight of bones
 Calcium
phosphate (calcium and phosphorus) AKA
hydroxyapatite
 If body processes are deficient or low in calcium, the body
will take it from the bones.

Osteoporosis
 Other

salts include magnesium, sodium, and carbonate.

Upper body appendicular skeleton
 Clavicle
(2 bones)
 Scapula (2 bones)
 Humerus (2 bones)
 Radius (2 bones)
 Ulna (2 bones)
 Carpals (16 bones)
 Metacarpals (10 bones)
 Phalanges (28 bones)
Appendicular Skeleton

Coxae – pelvis, made of 3 bones

Ilium – majority of pelvis
Posterior Superior Iliac Spine (PSIS)
 Anterior Superior Iliac Spine (ASIS)
 Iliac Crest


Ischium – Inferior, posterior portion of pelvis
Ischial spine
 Ischial tuberosity – attachment of hamstring

Pubis – Inferior, anterior portion of pelvis
 Obturator foramen – absence of bone to make pelvis
lighter.
 Acetabulum – “hip socket” anterior part made by pubic,
posterior part made by ischium.

Pelvic brim – circular shape created by pelvis and
sacrum that is the start of the birth canal
Greater pelvis – area above the pelvic brim

Difference between male and female pelvis
 Male
pelvis
 Narrow
pubic arch
 Heart-shaped pelvic brim
 Upright ilium
 Narrower sacrum and more medial placed PSIS
 Female
pelvis
 Wider/flatter
pubic arch
 Oval-shaped pelvic brim
 Flared ilium
 Wider sacrum and more laterally placed PSIS

Appendicular Skeleton

Femur – longest bone in body, upper leg
 Head
– creates hip joint
 Neck – most common location of fracture in femur
 Greater trochanter – ligament and muscular attachment
 Lesser trochanter – medial, posterior, and distal
 Condyles – medial and lateral – create knee joint
 Medial
and Lateral Epicondyles – muscle and ligament
attachments

Appendicular Skeleton


Patella – “knee cap” - sesamoid bone in the tendon
connecting quadracepts muscle to tibia, allow
extension of the leg.
Leg – 2 bones (Tibia, Fibula)
 Tibia
– “shin bone”
 Medial
and lateral condyles which line up with condyles of
Femur to make knee joint
 Tibial tuberosity – site of Osgood Schlatter’s and the
location of the attachment site of patellar tendon.
 Medial Malleolus – medial “ankle” bone
Appendicular Skeleton

Leg – 2 bones (Tibia, Fibula)
 Fibula
– non-weight bearing, it is just a muscular and
ligamentous attachment bone
 Fibular
head – lateral and distal to knee
 Lateral malleolus – lateral ankle bone
