Study Notes
Movement and Locomotion
- Locomotion refers to the act of changing place or position by the entire body or by its parts.
- It is a type of movement that involves the whole body moving from one place to another.
Human Skeletal System
- The primary function of the human skeletal system is to provide support, protection, and movement for the body.
- The human skeletal system is located internally, making it an endoskeleton.
- It is a system of bones that provide a framework for the body.
Types of Skeletons
- An exoskeleton is a type of skeleton that is found externally, such as in insects, crustaceans, and some vertebrates.
- A human skeleton is an endoskeleton, located internally, and provides support and protection for the body.
Types of Movement
- There are two types of movements mentioned: locomotion and movement of body parts.
- Locomotion refers to the movement of the entire body from one place to another, while movement of body parts refers to the movement of individual parts such as arms and legs.
