Skeletal System
 The skeleton is the framework of bones
 that supports and protects the internal
 structures.
 Has an excellent capacity to repair
 itself after an injury.
 Bone is composed of a sparse population
 of cells embedded in a hard substance
 called the matrix.
Functions
 Support
 Protection
 Storage
 Movement
 Blood cell formation
Bone Structure
 Cancellous Bone-
   Consists of tiny spicules of bone that
   appears randomly arranged with lots of
   spaces between them.
   The spaces between the spicules are
   occupied by bone marrow.
Bone Structure
 Compact Bone-
   Very heavy, dense and
   strong.
   Makes up the shaft of
   long bones, and the
   outside layer of all bones.
   Haversian Canals run
   lengthwise and contains
   blood vessels and nerves
   that supply osteocytes.
Bone Structure
 Compact Bone-
   Volkmanns canals
   run across bones and
   contain blood vessels.
Bone Cells
 Osteoblasts-
   Cells that form bone.
   Secretes the matrix of bone and then supplies the
   minerals necessary to cause it to harden.
   Once osteoblasts become trapped in the ossified
   matrix they create, they become
 Osteocytes-(mature dormant bone cell) which
 are always ready to return to osteoblasts and
 form new bone if an injury makes that
 necessary.
 Osteoclasts- removes bone where it is not
 needed.
Bone Formation
 Endochondral-                      Intramembranous-
    Long bones                        Skull bones
    A cartilage model develops        Osteoblasts produce bone
    within the embryo.                between 2 layers of fibrous
    The cartilage is replaced         CT.
    with osteoblasts.                 There is no cartilage
    Osteoclasts remove bone           template.
    from the diaphysis forming
    the marrow cavity.
    A narrow band of cartilage
    still persists (growth plate)
    to allow the bone to lengthen
    and grow.
Bone Shapes
 Long bones-
   Longer than wide, most limb bones.
 Short bones-
   Shaped like small cubes.
   Ex. Carpal & tarsal bones.
 Flat bones-
   Two thin plates of compact bone separated
   by a thin layer of cancellous bone.
   Skull bones, pelvis, scapula
Bone Shapes
 Irregular bones-
   A miscellanous category.
   Ex. Vertebrae
   This category also includes SESAMOID
   bones-
     Named because early anatomists thought these
     bones resembled sesame seeds.
     Bones present in some tendons like the patella.
Bone Marrow
 Fills the spaces within bones.
 Red bone marrow-
   Hematopoietic tissue- forms blood cells.
 Yellow bone marrow-
   Consists primarily of adipose CT.
   Does not produce blood cells.
Parts of a
Bone
 Articular Cartilage- around
 the ends where the joint
 meets.
 Growth Plate- the point where
 new bone grows (epiphyseal
 cartilage).
 Diaphysis- long portion of a
 bone.
 Epiphysis- the end of a bone
 Periosteum- membrane that
 surrounds a bone.
 Medullary Cavity- the space
 that houses bone marrow.
Bone Features
 Condyle- a large prominence.
 Foramen- hole to accomadate
 blood vessels and nerves.
 Fossa- a hollow depression in a
 bone.
 Groove- a depression for
 tendons, nerves or vessels.
 Head- ball of a ball & socket.
 Trochanter- found only on the
 femur.
 Tubercle- small rounded
 process on the end of a bone.
 Tuberosity- a roughened
 process.
    Please refer to your handout
    for these processes

The Spinal Column
 Made up of a series of individual irregular
 bones.
   Vertebra- singular Vertebrae- pleural
 Extends from the skull to the tip of the tail.
 Divided into 5 regions:
   Cervical- neck
   Thoracic- chest

Vertebrae Characteristics
 Consists of a body, an arch, and a group of
 processes.
   Spinous process- a single, dorsally projecting
   process.
   Transverse process- two laterally projecting
   processes.
 The body is the strongest portion.
 Vertebral bodies are separated by
 INTERVETEBRAL DISKS which act as
 cartilaginous shock absorbers.
 The arches form the SPINAL CANAL which
 houses and protects the spinal cord.

 Proximal row- tibial tarsal bone, fibular tarsal bone,
 & the central tarsal bone is tucked behind the 2
 larger bones.

Factors That Influence Bone
Growth, Remodeling & Repair
 Minerals-
   Calcium & Phosphorus- make bones hard
   Magnesium- deficiency inhibits osteoblasts
 Vitamins-
   Vitamin A- controls the activity of osteoblasts and
   osteoclasts
   Vitamin B12- may inhibit osteoblast activity
   Vit. C- Helps maintain the bone matrix, deficiency
   inhibits bone growth & delays fracture repair
   Vit. D- helps increase the absorption of calcium
Factors That Influence Bone
Growth, Remodeling & Repair
 Hormones-
   Growth Hormone- (anterior pituitary) promotes
   general growth of all body tissues
   Sex Hormones- promotes tissue repair
   Insulin- promotes normal bone growth and maturity
   Thyroid Hormones- promotes normal bone growth
   and maturity
   Calcitonin- inhibits osteoclasts
   Parathyroid Hormone- promotes bone reabsorption
