Q

skeletal functions

A
  • Main storage for calcium and phosphorous (electrolyte balance)
    • Regulate mineral balance in bloodstream
    • Fluctuation of minerals is HIGH = storage
    • Minerals low = withdrawn from bone
  • Hematopoiesis occurs in bones (blood formation)
    • Yellow bone marrow – fatty connective tissue, in marrow cavity (ENERGY)
    • Red bone marrow – hematopoiesis/ blood cell production
    • Erythrocytes, PLT, leukocytes formed –> migrate to circ
  • Protection of vital organs
    • Provide structural support for body
  • support, movement
  • acid-base balance
  • storage of energy

* CARTILAGINOUS (range of mobility)
* SYNOVIAL (free)

29
Q

fibrous joint type

A
  • FIBROUS – dense connective tissue
    • Very limited mobility

□ no joint cavity
□ for connecting bones that dont require a lot of movement (suture lines of skull after development)

30
Q

cartilaginous joint types

A
  • CARTILAGINOUS – a type of joint where the bones are entirely joined by cartilage,
  • Limited mobility and lack joint cavity
    • either hyaline cartilage (epiphyseal plate)
    • or fibrocartilage (shock absorber, vertebrae, pelvis)
31
Q

synovial joint types

A
  • SYNOVIAL – between bones that move against each other. Joint cavity filled with fluid (synovial cavity)
    • articular cartilage at the ends of bones & Most mobile
    • articular capsule (synovial mem + fibrous layer)
    • Joint actively moved by contraction (shortening) of skeletal muscles that STRETCHES arocss

□ Eg: shoulder & knee joints

32
Q

components of synovial joint

A
  • Joint capsule: link bones
  • Synovial membrane: Lines and produce fluid (space), lubricate surface of cartilage
  • synovial fluid – hyaluronic acid
    * lubricant, reduce friction between cartilage
  • Articular cartilage: end of bone to absorb shock (protects bone, joint)

– some have menisci (separate articular surface)
– bursae (fluid filled sac to cushion tendon from joint)
– tendon (attach muscle to bone)

33
Q

4 common mechanism of joints

A
  • Ball-and-socket joint
    * most mobile, 3D mvoement
    * (shoulder, hip)
  • Hinge joint
    * most stable, 1D movement, less dislocation risk
    * (elbow, knee)
  • Pivot joint
    * 1 bone (radius) rotate along long axis of another bone ulnar)
    * radioulnar/ forearm, head- neck
  • Planar joint
    * glide between bones, small distance
    * intercarpal (finger), jaw, ankle
34
Q

shoulder girdle
(muscle + joints)

A
  • Humerus (ball) + scapula (socket)
  • Joint capsule have ligaments (thickened connective tissue)
    * Enforce, strengthen joints for stability
  • Muscles across shoulder joint

xray: cartilage space b. bones where not contacting each other

35
Q

knee joint

A
  • Hinge (femur & tibia)
  • Gliding (femur & patella)

Major components:
* Bone: femur, tibia, patella
* Articular cartilage (a fibrocartilage)

* Meniscus: c-shaped cartilage that act as shock absorber (incr fitness + stability)
* joint (snovial mem, joint capsule)
* ligaments

36
Q

perichondrium vs periosteum

A

perichondrium (hyaline cartilage)
* dense connective tissue layer, covers cartilage
* fibroblast cells
* protect bone from injury/ elasticity

periosteum
* layer of connective tissue that promotes bone growth and devvelopment
* osteoblast cells
* surface of bone tissues (not joint face)
* supply blood/ protection/ recovery from #

37
Q

muscle connection

A
  • Skeletal muscles
    • Attached to bones and arranged in opposing grps around joints
    • Muscles are innervated – nerved conduct electrical current from CNS to cause muscle to contract
38
Q

connection between bones, muscles, joints etc

A
  • tendon (muscle - bone)
    • tough flexible fibrous connective tissue
  • joint (bone articulation)
