Introduction
• Bones provide the body with structure and support
• 206 bones with joints and connective tissue
• Divisions• Axial – 80 bones
• Skull
• Vertebral column
• Rib cage
• Appendicular – 126 bones
• Arms and legs
• Pectoral girdle
• Pelvic girdle
The Skeletal System
Bone Structure
• Bones contain various kinds of tissues, including• Osseous tissue
• Blood vessels
• Nerves
• Osseous tissue can appear compact or spongy
Bone Structure (cont.)
• Compact bone looks solid
• Structures can be observed with a microscope
• All bones are made up of both compact and spongy bone
Bone Structure (cont.)
• Classification by shape• Long bones – located primarily in the arms and legs
• Femur (thigh bone)
• Humerus (upper arm bone)
• Short bones – small bones located in the wrists and ankles
• Carpals (wrist bones)
• Tarsals (ankle bones)
Bone Structure (cont.)
• Flat bones – located in the skull and rib cage
• Ribs
• Frontal bone
• Irregular bones• Vertebrae
• Bones of the pelvic girdle
Bone Structure: Gender Differences
• Male Skull• Larger and heavier
• Forehead shorter
• Face less round
• Jaw larger
• Mastoid processes more prominent
• Male pelvic bones• Heavier and thicker
• Obturator foramina and acetabula are larger and closer together
• Male pelvic cavity• Narrower and longer
• Less roomy and more funnel shaped
• Male sacrum• Narrower
• Sacral promontory projects forward
• Sacral curvature is less sharp posteriorly
• Male coccyx• Less movable
Bone Structure: Gender Differences (cont.)
Functions of Bones
• Give shape to body parts
• Support and protect soft structures
• Examples – brain, lungs, heart
• Allow body movement, because skeletal muscles attach to them
• Allow for voluntary movement
Functions of Bones (cont.)
• Red bone marrow of
bone produces new
blood cells –
hematopoiesis
• Store calcium
Checkpoint
ANSWER: Every cell in the body needs calcium, so the body must have a large supply readily available.
Why is it important for the bones to store calcium?
Bone Growth
• Ossification – process of bone growth
• Intramembranousossification
• Bones begin as tough, fibrous membrane
• Bone-forming cells called osteoblasts turn the membrane to bone (located in skull)
Bone Growth (cont.)
• Endochondral ossification • Bones begin as cartilage
models
• Primary ossification center• Bone formed in the diaphysis
• Secondary ossification center• Epiphyses turn to bone
• Bones with some cartilage between an epiphysis and the diaphysis will continue to grow
• Medullary cavity and spaces in cancellous bone form
• Cells that form holes in bone are called osteoclasts
Bone Growth: Building Better Bones
• Teach healthy behaviors• Bone-healthy diet with calcium and vitamin D
• Bone-health exercises Weight-bearing
Strength training
• Bone-healthy lifestyle Avoid smoking
Avoid alcohol
Bone Growth (cont.)
• Bone tests• Bone density
• Bone scans Diagnose causes of
Bone pain
Arthritis
Bone infections
Bone cancers
Checkpoint
What are the two types of bone growth?
ANSWER: Intramembranous ossification, in which
bones begin as tough membrane and are turned to
bone by osteoblasts, and endochondral ossification,
in which primary ossification occurs in the diaphysis
of the of the bone and secondary ossification occurs
in the epiphysis.
Bony Structures
• Rigid foundation
• Projections and processes for muscle and ligament attachment
• Depressions and hollows for articulations –the connection of bones at joints
• Openings for blood vessels and nerves
Bony Structures (cont.)
Term Definition
Condyle A rounded process that usually articulates
with another bone
Crest A narrow, ridge-like projection
Epicondyle A projection situated above a condyle
Foramen An opening through a bone that is usually a
passageway for blood vessels, nerves, or
ligaments
Fossa A relatively deep pit or depression
Bony Structures (cont.)
Term Definition
Head An enlargement on the end of a bone
Process A prominent projection on a bone
Suture An interlocking line of union between bones
Trochanter A relatively large process
Tubercle A small, knoblike process
Tuberosity A knoblike process, usually larger than a
tubercle
The Skull
• Two bone types: • Cranial – form the top, sides, and back of the skull
• Facial – form the face
“Soft spots” felt on an infant's skull are
actually fontanels
Tough membranes that connect the
incompletely developed bones
The Skull: Cranial Bones
• Frontal – anterior
• Parietal – top and most of the sides
• Occipital – back
• Temporal – form the lower sides of the skull
• Sphenoid and ethmoid bones – floor
• Ear ossicles are the smallest bones of the body
• Malleus
• Incus
• Stapes
The Skull (cont.)
• Mandible – forms the lower jaw bone
• Maxillae – form the upper jawbone
• Zygomatic – form the prominence of the cheeks
• Nasal bones – fuse together to form the bridge of the nose

Skull
• Palatine – form the anterior portion of the palate
• Vomer – a thin bone that divides the nasal cavity
The Spinal Column
• 7 cervical vertebrae
• 12 thoracic vertebrae
• 5 lumbar vertebrae
• Sacrum
• Coccyx
The Spinal Column (cont.)
• Cervical vertebrae • Smallest and lightest
• Located in the neck region
• First one is atlas
• Second one is axis
• Thoracic vertebrae • Join the 12 pairs of
ribs
• Lumbar vertebrae • Have very sturdy
structures
The Spinal Column (cont.)
• Sacrum • A triangular-shaped bone that consists of five fused
vertebrae
• Coccyx • A small, triangular-shaped bone made up of 3 to 5
fused vertebrae
• Considered unnecessary
• More commonly called the tailbone
The Rib Cage
• Sternum• Breastplate
• Forms the front middle portion of the rib cage
• Joins with the clavicles and most ribs
• Xyphoid process• Cartilaginous tip
The Rib Cage (cont.)
• 12 pairs of ribs• All are attached
posteriorly to thoracic vertebrae
• True• First seven pairs of ribs
• Attach to sternum by costal cartilage
• False• Rib pairs 8, 9, and 10
• Attach to the costal cartilage of rib pair 7
• Floating• Rib pairs 11 and 12
• Do not attach anteriorly to any structure

Joints
• Cartilaginous joints• Connected together
with a disc of cartilage
• Between vertebrae
Joints
• Synovial joints • Covered with hyaline cartilage
• Held together by a fibrous jointcapsule lined with synovialmembrane
• Secretes synovial fluid so bones move easily against each other
• Freely movable
• Bones are also held together through tough, cord-like structures called ligaments
Common Diseases and Disorders
• Arthritis – general term meaning joint inflammation• Osteoarthritis – degenerative joint
disease, primarily of weight-bearing joints
• Rheumatoid Arthritis – chronic systemic inflammatory disease of smaller joints and surrounding tissues
Common Diseases and Disorders (cont.)

• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome – overuse of wrist; the median nerve in the wrist becomes compressed
• Ewing’s Family of Tumors (EFT) – a group of tumors that affect different tissue types; primarily bone
• Gout – a type of arthritis; deposits of uric acid crystals in the joints
Common Diseases and Disorders (cont.)
• Kyphosis – abnormal curvature of the spine (humpback)
• Lordosis – exaggerated inward curvature of the lumbar spine (swayback)
• Osteogenesis imperfecta – brittle-bone disease
• Osteoporosis – a condition in which bones thin (become porous) over time
Disorders
Kyphosis Lordosis
Common Diseases and Disorders (cont.)
• Osteosarcoma – a type of bone cancer that originates from osteoblasts, the cells that make bony tissue
• Paget’s disease – causes bones to enlarge and become deformed and weak
• Scoliosis – an abnormal S-shaped curvature of the spine
Disorders
Scoliosis
Checkpoint
Osteosarcoma is a type of bone cancer that originates from osteoblasts, the cells that make bony tissue.
The doctor has told your patient that he has an osteosarcoma. What do you know about this
disorder?
In Summary
