Skeletal System  Chapter 5 The Skeletal System Lecture Presentation by Patty Bostwick-Taylor Florence-Darlington Technical College © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. What are the Functions of the Skeletal System? 1. Support. The skeleton serves as the structural framework for the body by supporting soft tissues Muscle attached to bones!! and providing attachment points for the tendons of most skeletal muscles. 2. Assistance in movement. Most skeletal muscles attach to bones; when they contract, they pull on bones to produce movement. What are the Functions of the 3. Protection. The skeleton protects the most Skeletal System? important internal organs from injury. 4. Blood cell formation. A connective tissue called red bone marrow produces red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, a process called hematopoiesis. What are the Functions of the 5. Storage: Bones store minerals, such as Skeletal System? calcium and phosphorus, for use by the body 6. Triglyceride storage. Yellow bone marrow consists mainly of adipose cells, which store triglycerides. The stored triglycerides are a potential chemical energy reserve. The Skeletal System  Parts of the skeletal system  Bones (skeleton)  Joints  Cartilages  Ligaments  Tendons  Two subdivisions of the skeleton 1. Axial skeleton 2. Appendicular skeleton Bones of the Human Body  The skeleton has 206 bones  Two basic types of bone tissue  Compact bone  Dense and looks smooth  Homogeneous  Spongy bone  Small needle-like pieces of bone  Many open spaces Figure 5.1 Flat bones consist of a layer of spongy bone sandwiched between two thin layers of compact bone. Spongy bone Compact bone © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Classification of Bones on the Basis of Shape  Classification of Bones ► Long bones  Typically longer than they are wide  Shaft with heads situated at both ends  Contain mostly compact bone  Long bones, especially the femur and tibia, are subjected to most of the load during daily activities and they are crucial for skeletal mobility.  Classification of Bones ► Short bones  Generally cube-shaped or they are as wide as they are long  Contain mostly spongy bone  Includes bones of the wrist and ankle  Sesamoid bones are a type of short bone which form within tendons (patella)  Primary function is to provide support and stability with little to no movement.  Classification of Bones ► Flat bones  Thin, flattened, and usually curved or are expanded into broad.  Two thin layers of compact bone surround a layer of spongy bone  principal function is either extensive protection or the provision of broad surfaces for muscular attachment.  Classification of Bones ► Irregular bones  Irregular shape  Do not fit into other bone classification categories  Classification of Bones ► Sesamoid bones  shaped like a sesame seed  develop in certain tendons or a small nodular bone most often present embedded in tendons where there is considerable friction, tension, and physical stress, such as the palms and soles. Classification of Bones How Strong are  The structure of Bones? bones make it both strong and light weight.  20 % of an adults body weight is bone.  Bone is made up of 2 minerals: ►Calcium ►Phosphorus  Articular Anatomy of a Long Bone cartilage  Diaphysis (shaft) Proximal  Makes up most of epiphysis Spongy bone bone’s length Epiphyseal line  Composed of compact Periosteum bone Compact bone Medullary cavity (lined  Epiphysis (ends) by endosteum) Diaphysis  Composed mostly of spongy bone enclosed by thin layer of compact bone Distal epiphysis Anatomy of a Long Bone  Articular cartilage  Covers the external surface of the epiphyses  Made of hyaline cartilage  Decreases friction at joint surfaces  Periosteum  Outside covering of the diaphysis  Fibrous connective tissue membrane  Perforating (Sharpey’s) fibers secure periosteum to underlying bone Anatomy of a Long Bone Articular cartilage Proximal  Epiphyseal line epiphysis Spongy bone  Remnant of the Epiphyseal line epiphyseal plate Periosteum  Seen in adult bones Compact bone Medullary cavity (lined by endosteum)  Epiphyseal plate Diaphysis  Flat plate of hyaline cartilage seen in young, growing bone  Causes lengthwise growth of a long bone Distal epiphysis  Anatomy of a Long Bone  Endosteum  Lines the inner surface of the shaft  Made of connective tissue  Medullary cavity  Cavity inside the shaft  Contains yellow marrow (mostly fat) in adults  Contains red marrow for blood cell formation in infants until age 6 or 7 © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc.  Structure of Bone  Bone markings  Sites of attachments for muscles, tendons, and ligaments  Passages for nerves and blood vessels  Categories of bone markings  Projections or processes—grow out from the bone surface  Terms often begin with ―T‖  Depressions or cavities—indentations  Terms often begin with ―F‖ © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Table 5.1 Bone Markings (1 of 3) © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Table 5.1 Bone Markings (2 of 3) © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Table 5.1 Bone Markings (3 of 3) © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc.  Structure of Bone  Microscopic anatomy of spongy bone  Composed of small, needlelike pieces of bone called trabeculae and open spaces  Open spaces are filled by marrow, blood vessels, and nerves © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 5.4a Microscopic structure of bone.

Develop?  Cartilage is a strong flexible tissue.  Over time the cartilage is replaced by solid bone, usually complete by the time you stop growing.  Not all cartilage is replaced in adults. Many joints contain cartilage, protecting the ends of bones (ears and the end of the nose is also cartilage). Bone Formation, Growth, and Remodeling  Bone formation and growth  Ossification is the process of bone formation  Occurs on hyaline cartilage models or fibrous membranes  Long bone growth involves two major phases  Two major phases of ossification in long bones 1. Osteoblasts (bone-forming cells) cover hyaline cartilage model with bone matrix 2. In a fetus, the enclosed cartilage is digested away, opening up a medullary cavity  Types of Bone Cells  Osteogenic cell or osteoprogenitor cells, are mitotically active stem cells found in the membranous periosteum and endosteum.  Osteocytes—mature bone cells; monitor and maintain the bone matrix  Osteoblasts—bone-forming cells  Osteoclasts—giant bone-destroying cells  Break down bone matrix for remodeling and release of calcium in response to parathyroid hormone  Bone remodeling is performed by both osteoblasts and osteoclasts Figure 5.5 Stages of long-bone formation in an embryo, fetus, and young child.

Articular cartilages 2. Epiphyseal plates  New cartilage is formed continuously on external face of these two cartilages  Old cartilage is broken down and replaced by bony matrix © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc.  Bone Formation, Growth, and Remodeling  Appositional growth (growth from outside)  Bones grow in width  Osteoblasts in the periosteum add bone matrix to the outside of the diaphysis  Osteoclasts in the endosteum remove bone from the inner surface of the diaphysis  Interstitial growth (growth from within)  Bones expands  Lacunae bound chondrocytes divide and secrete new matrix  Bone growth is controlled by hormones, such as growth hormone and sex hormones © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 5.6 Growth and remodeling of long bones.

Calcium ion level in the blood determines when bone matrix is to be broken down or formed 2. Pull of gravity and muscles on the skeleton determines where bone matrix is to be broken down or formed © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc.  Bone Formation, Growth, and Remodeling  Calcium ion regulation  Parathyroid hormone (PTH)  Released when calcium ion levels in blood are low  Activates osteoclasts (bone-destroying cells)  Osteoclasts break down bone and release calcium ions into the blood  Hypercalcemia (high blood calcium levels) prompts calcium storage to bones by osteoblasts © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc.  Bone Fractures  Fracture: break in a bone  Types of bone fractures  Closed (simple) fracture is a break that does not penetrate the skin  Open (compound) fracture is a broken bone that penetrates through the skin © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc.  Bone Fractures  Bone fractures are treated by reduction and immobilization  Closed reduction: bones are manually coaxed into position by physician’s hands  Open reduction: bones are secured with pins or wires during surgery  Healing time is 6–8 weeks © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc.  Bone Fractures  Repair of bone fractures involves four major events  Hematoma (blood-filled swelling, or bruise) is formed  Fibrocartilage callus forms  Cartilage matrix, bony matrix, collagen fibers splint the broken bone  Bony callus replaces the fibrocartilage callus  Osteoblasts and osteoclasts migrate in  Bone remodeling occurs in response to mechanical stresses © 2018 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 5.7 Stages in the healing of a bone fracture.
