Study Notes
Bones of the Cranium and Face
- The two internal bones of the cranium are the ethmoid and sphenoid bones.
- The hyoid bone supports the base of the tongue, pharynx, and larynx.
- Vertebral Column Regions: The lumbar region is dorsal to the pelvis.
Elbow Joint and Bones
- The scapula forms a joint with the humerus and features a prominent longitudinal ridge on its lateral surface.
- Olecranon process is part of the ulna, which forms a major portion of the elbow joint.
- The sacrum is formed by fused vertebrae and articulates with the pelvis.
Appendicular Skeleton Components
- The radius is the main weight-bearing bone between the radius and ulna, forming part of the elbow joint.
- The carpals, a series of bones in the wrist, connect to the hand bones known as metacarpals which extend to the phalanges (fingers).
- Typically, each digit has three phalanges except for the thumb, which has two.
- The sternum consists of rod-like bones called sternebrae, providing structure to the chest.
Abdominal and Pelvic Support
- The abdominal organs are supported by the pelvic girdle and surrounding bones.
- The glenoid cavity is a shallow socket in the scapula that articulates with the head of the humerus.
Thoracic and Pelvic Limbs
- The carpus is comprised of eight carpal bones in two rows.
- Identification of bones in the thoracic limb includes the humerus, radius, and ulna, while the pelvic limb includes the femur, tibia, and fibula.
Vertebral Column and Ribs
- The body's weight is supported by bodies of adjacent vertebrae separated by intervertebral discs.
- Costal cartilage connects ribs to the sternum at the junction of bone and cartilage.
Vertebral Formulas
- The vertebral formula for a horse is C7 T18 L6 S5.
- The vertebral formula for a dog is C7 T13 L7 S3, and for a cat, it is typically C7 T13 L7 S3 as well.
Sternum Characteristics
- The sternum features cranial and caudal sternebrae as distinct landmarks.
