E.g. The bones of the lower limbs act as pillars supporting the weight of the torso. Protection Bones protect soft organs. For example, the rib cage helps to protect the thoracic organs such as the heart and lungs and the fused skull bones of the cranium protect the brain. Enable movement Most skeletal muscles are attached to bones. Bones act as levers for muscles. When muscles contract they pull on bones allowing the movement of the body and its parts. Storage Bone tissue stores minerals such as calcium and phosphorus. Calcium concentration in blood is tightly regulated - the level must be at just the right concentration in blood to allow the nervous system to transmit messages, muscle contractions to occur and blood to clot. Bone acts like a calcium bank, accepting deposits of calcium when there is an excess in blood and when concentration of calcium in blood falls too low, calcium is withdrawn from the bone and transferred into blood. Fat is stored in the internal cavity of bones (yellow marrow). It serves as an energy reserve for the body. Blood cell formation Haematopoiesis occurs in the red marrow of bones. 3. Haematopoiesis is blood cell formation stopping of bleeding the protein that binds oxygen 4.

Can you answer these questions now? Can you identify the bones shown on the top diagram above? Which bones form the axial skeleton and which form the appendicular skeleton? Where are the major areas of cartilage on the human skeleton? What are some of the functions of cartilage? C&D Hyaline cartilage: At the articular surfaces of bones, hyaline cartilage functions as a shock absorber and reduces the friction between bones. In locations like the nose, respiratory system, and where the ribs attach to the sternum, hyaline cartilage gives these structures some form while allowing for some exibility. Fibrocartilage: Located in the pubic symphysis and the intervertebral discs, brocartilage provides rigidity and structural support to resist shear forces and compression. Elastic cartilage: Only located within the ear and epiglottis, elastic cartilage maintains the shape of these structures while allowing a lot of exibility. Microscopic Bone Structure 1.

The hormone PTH will act on osteoclasts to: Increase their activity, leading to break down of bone and release of Ca2+ Decrease their activity, leading to Ca2+ being stored in the bones Damage them 7. Which hormone prevents the breakdown of bone matrix by osteoclasts? Calcitonin Parathyroid hormone 4. If the blood calcium levels drop below 10 mg/dL, how does the body respond to start the correction back to homeostasis? The thyroid gland secretes calcitonin The parathyroid gland secretes PTH (parathyroid hormone) The pancreas secretes insulin 6. What e ect would increased osteoclast activity have on bone density? It would decrease bone density It would have no e ect on bone density It would increase bone density Just checking... Can you answer these questions now? What are the roles of osteoblasts, osteocytes and osteoclasts in bone physiology? How do bones grow and change shape? How do calcitonin and parathyroid hormone a ect bone density? c, Calcitonin lowers blood calcium levels by inhibiting bone resorption (breaking down of bone) and promoting calcium deposition in bones, which increases bone density. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) raises blood calcium levels by stimulating bone resorption, releasing calcium from bones into the bloodstream, which decreases bone density. The Axial Skeleton 1.

Muscle length is unchanged Muscle may either lengthen or shorten Just checking......... Can you answer this question now? Can you give a brief description of the sliding lament process of muscle contraction? How do isotonic and isometric muscle contractions di er? a. Nerve impulse: A signal from a motor neuron triggers the release of calcium ions (Ca²⁺) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum into the muscle cell. Calcium binding: Calcium binds to troponin on the actin laments, causing tropomyosin to move, exposing binding sites on actin. Cross-bridge formation: Myosin heads bind to the exposed sites on actin, forming cross-bridges. Power stroke: Myosin heads pivot, pulling the actin laments toward the center of the sarcomere, causing the muscle to shorten. ATP binding: ATP binds to myosin, causing it to release actin and re-cock its head for another cycle. Cycle repeats: As long as calcium and ATP are present, the cycle repeats, allowing the muscle to continue contracting. Naming skeletal muscles 1.
