    Study Notes

    Systematic Anatomy Nomenclature

    • Osteology: Study of bones; focuses on skeletal structures.
    • Arthrology: Study of joints; includes all types of joint structures.
    • Myology: Study of muscles; covers muscular anatomy.
    • Splanchnology: Study of organs; encompasses digestive, respiratory, and urinary systems.
    • Endocrinology: Study of ductless glands; involves hormonal systems.
    • Neurology: Study of the nervous system; includes the brain, spinal cord, and nerves.
    • Angiology: Study of the circulatory system; focuses on the heart and blood vessels.
    • Dermatology: Study of the skin; explores integumentary structures.
    • Esthesiology: Study of sensory organs; relates to the eyes and ears.

    The Skeletal System

    • Composed of bones providing framework, support, protection, and storage.
    • Functions: Supports body structure, muscle attachment, aids locomotion, manufactures red blood cells, stores minerals.

    Bone Structure

    • Compact Bone: Dense layer covering most bones, forming the shaft of long bones.
    • Cancellous (Spongy) Bone: Porous structure found within bones, houses marrow.
    • Diaphysis: The shaft of a long bone; primarily composed of compact bone.
    • Epiphysis: The ends of a long bone; includes spongy bone and overlying hyaline cartilage.

    Bone Growth and Development

    • Epiphyseal Plate: Hyaline cartilage layer that allows lengthwise growth of long bones, replaced by bone after puberty.
    • Endosteum: Membrane lining the marrow cavity, involved in bone health.

    Classification of Bones

    • Long Bones: Cylindrical with a shaft (diaphysis) and two ends (epiphysis); e.g., humerus and femur.
    • Short Bones: Cube-like with no marrow cavity; e.g., tarsus and carpus.
    • Flat Bones: Thin and expanded; protect organs and provide muscle attachment; e.g., scapula.
    • Sesamoid Bones: Develop within tendons, reduce friction; e.g., patella.
    • Irregular Bones: Unique shapes, support and protect; e.g., vertebrae.

    Joint Classification

    • Diarthrosis: Freely movable joints; characterized by a cavity, capsule, and articular surfaces.
    • Types of Diarthrodial Joints:
      • Ginglymus (hinge): Movement in one plane; e.g., fetlock joint.
      • Arthrodial: Slight gliding movement; e.g., carpal joints.
      • Trochoid (pivot): Rotary movement around one axis; e.g., atlanto-axial joint.
      • Enarthrodial (ball and socket): Movement in multiple directions; e.g., hip joint.

    Types of Gaits

    • Plantigrade: Entire foot contacts the ground; e.g., humans and bears.
    • Digitigrade: Digits touch ground, rest elevated; e.g., cats and dogs.
    • Unguligrade: Tips of digits (hooves) touch ground; e.g., cows and pigs.

    Bone Fractures

    • Comminuted: Bone shatters into multiple pieces; common in older individuals.
    • Compression: Bone is crushed; seen in porous bones.
    • Depressed: Bone pushed inward; often occurs in skull fractures.
    • Impacted: Broken ends forced together; happens when falling.
    • Spiral: Ragged break due to twisting forces; common in sports injuries.
    • Greenstick: Incomplete break; typical in younger animals due to flexible bones.

    Interesting Facts

    • Thigh bone (femur) is the longest bone; ear bones (malleus, incus, stapes) are the smallest.
    • Hyoid bone: A floating bone resistant to fractures; indicators of strangulation if broken.
    • Newborns possess approximately 300 bones, which fuse to form 206 in adulthood.
