The central part of the skeleton, including the skull, ribs, sternum, and vertebral column.

The bones of the limbs and their supporting structures, including the shoulder and pelvic girdles.

A set of 33 bones that form the backbone, providing support and flexibility.

The bones of the skull and face, consisting of 21 immovable bones joined together.

The lower jaw bone, the only movable bone in the head.

The collection of 12 pairs of bones that attach to the vertebrae and help to form the rib cage.

The flat bone in the middle of the chest, which connects with the ribs and clavicle.

The bones of the shoulder, including the scapula (shoulder blade) and clavicle (collarbone).

A type of joint where the opposing bone surfaces are joined by cartilage, lacking a joint cavity.

A type of cartilaginous joint where bones are joined by hyaline cartilage, temporary, and disappears through ossification. No movement occurs.

A type of cartilaginous joint formed by a fibrous disc between bones, permanent, and allows limited movement.

A type of joint characterized by a joint cavity, fibrous capsule, synovial membrane, synovial fluid, articular cartilage, and ligaments. Allows for movement.

A type of synovial joint that allows movement around one axis. Examples include hinge and pivot joints.

A type of synovial joint that allows movement around two perpendicular axes. Examples include condylar joints.

A type of synovial joint that allows movement in multiple directions.

A type of synovial joint that allows limited sliding or gliding movements.

The upper chamber of the heart that receives deoxygenated blood from the body.

The lower chamber of the heart that pumps deoxygenated blood to the lungs.

The upper chamber of the heart that receives oxygenated blood from the lungs.

The lower chamber of the heart that pumps oxygenated blood to the rest of the body.

The large blood vessel that carries oxygenated blood from the left ventricle to the rest of the body.

The male sex organ that produces sperm and the male hormones, testosterone. It is located inside a skin pouch called the scrotum.

The tube that connects the testes to the urethra, acting as a storage and maturation site for sperm. It also secretes nutrients to support sperm development.

This muscular tube carries sperm from the epididymis to the urethra during ejaculation. It's a part of the male reproductive system.

These glands contribute fluids to semen. The seminal vesicles provide fructose for energy, the prostate contributes enzymes for sperm activation, and the bulbourethral glands lubricate the urethra.

The tube that carries urine from the bladder to the outside. In males, it also carries semen.

The upper respiratory tract structure that helps air enter the body, including the nose, nasal cavity, pharynx, and larynx.

The main function of the paranasal sinuses is to decrease the weight of the skull and increase the resonance of your voice, making it sound fuller.

The pharynx, often called the throat, connects the nasal cavity and mouth to the larynx.

The larynx is the part of the throat that houses your vocal cords, responsible for generating sound.

The trachea, also known as your windpipe, is a tube that carries air from your larynx to your lungs.

The trachea branches into two tubes, the right and left bronchi, which lead to the right and left lungs.

The right bronchus is wider and shorter than the left bronchus, making it easier for foreign objects to reach the right lung.

The lungs are two sponge-like organs that are responsible for gas exchange, taking in oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide.

The skeletal system, a crucial part of our body, is composed of bones, cartilage, joints, ligaments, and tendons. These components work together to provide support, protection, movement, and mineral storage.

The most common type of skeletal muscle attachment is to bones. These attachments are strong and allow for efficient force transmission from muscles to bones.

A fibrous raphe is a sheet of dense connective tissue that connects muscles together. This type of attachment provides flexibility and allows for coordinated movement.

In some cases, muscles attach directly to the skin, enabling fine movements and facial expressions. This is typically seen in muscles involved in facial movements and the skin of the back.

A tendon, a strong band of connective tissue, can connect one muscle to another. This allows for efficient transmission of force between muscles, enabling coordinated movements.

Cartilage, a smooth and flexible connective tissue, can serve as an attachment site for muscles, especially in areas where cushioning and smooth movement are required.

The form of skeletal muscles depends on the arrangement of muscle fibers relative to the line of pull between origin and insertion. This arrangement determines the muscle's force generation capacity and movement.

Muscles with parallel fibers usually have a long range of motion but produce less force. They are common in muscles responsible for long, sweeping movements.
