Axial Skeleton
Appendicular Skeleton
What bones does the Axial skeleton contain?
Skull
Vertebral Column
Thoracic Cage
What bones does the Appendicular skeleton contain?
Pectoral girdle
Upper limb
Pelvic girdle
Lower limb
How many bones are in the Axial skeleton?
80 Bones
How many bones are in the Appendicular skeleton?
126 Bones
The body's axis
Axial skeleton
The bones of extremities and their girdles
Appendicular skeleton
What are three functions of joints?
Enable movement
Provide stability
allow long bones to lengthen
No movement between articulating bones
Synarthrosis
Small amount of movement between bones
Amphiarthrosis
Freely moveable, wide variety of specific movements
Diarthrosis
How many bones is the human body composed of?
206
Junction where two or more bones or cartilage meet
Joint
What are the three functional classifications of joints?
Synarthrosis
Amphiarthrosis
Diarthrosis
What are three types of structural classifications of joints?
Fibrous Joints
Cartilaginous Joints
Synovial Joints
What functional classification are Fibrous joints?
Synarthrosis
Amphiarthroses
What functional classification are Cartilaginous joints?
Synarthrosis
Amphiarthroses
What functional classification are Synovial joints?
ALL diarthrosis
Held together by dense connective tissue without joint space between articulating bones
Fibrous Joints
Held together with cartilage without joint space
Cartilaginous Joints
Have a layer of hyaline cartilage on articulating surface of each bone
Joint space is fluid-filled cavity between articulating bones
Synovial Joints
Space between articulating bones
Synovial Cavity
Inner layer that lines entire inner surface except where hyaline cartilage is present
Cells secrete synovial fluid
Synovial membrane
Thick liquid with 3 main functions
Synovial Fluid
What are the 3 main functions of synovial fluid?
Lubrication
Transportation
Shock Absorption
Thin layer of hyaline cartilage; covers all exposed articulating bones within joint
Articular Cartilage
Provides a smooth surface that reduces friction
Articular cartilage
relies on synovial fluid for oxygen, nutrients, and waste removal
Avascular
What joint classification allows more mobility but less stability than other joint types?
Synovial Joints
Dense connective tissue that links one bone to another
Ligament
Dense connective tissue that connects muscle to bone or muscle to muscle
Tendon
Provide stabilization forces in high stress regions
Bursae and tendon sheaths
Synovial fluid-filled fibrous structure; minimizes friction between moving parts of the joint
Bursa
Long Bursa; surrounds tendons; protects tendons as they slide across joint
Tendon Sheath
Inflammation of bursa
Bursitis
Inflammation of one or more joints
Arthritis
What are three common types of arthritis?
Osteoarthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis
Gouty arthritis
What are the 4 general types of movement at synovial joints?
Gliding movements
Angular Movements
Rotation
Special Movements
decreases angle between bones
Flexion
Increases angle between bones
Extension
Extension beyond anatomical position
Hyperextension
Motion of body part away from midline of the body
Abduction
Motion of body part toward the midline of the body
Adduction
Freely moveable, distal end moves in cone-shaped motion (circular)
Circumduction
Thumb to move across palmar surface of hand
Opposition
moves body part in inferior direction
Depression
moves body part in inferior direction
Elevation
moves body part in anterior direction
Protraction
moves body part in posterior direction
Retraction
Plantar surface of feet face each other
Inversion
Plantar surface of feet face outward
Eversion
angle between foot and leg decreases
Dorsiflexion
angle between foot and leg increases
Plantarflexion
laying on back or palm facing upward
Supination
Laying on stomach or palm facing downward
Pronation
What joints have the greatest range of motion
Ball-n-Socket joint (hip and shoulder)
Very stable hinge joint
Elbow
What is the most complex joint of the body?
How many joints does it have?
Knee Joint
3 Joints
