Skeletal System

Joints

synarthrotic:Immovable

amphiarthrotic:Slightly movable

diarthrotic:Freely movable

Fibrous: composed of dense connective tissue

Cartilaginous:composed of cartilage

Synovial:having a complex structure

Anatomy of the Long Bone

Articular cartilage:(hyaline cartilage) covers the epiphyses

Diaphysis:The shaft of the bone

Periosteum:covers the bone, and is continuous with ligaments and tendons

Medullary Cavity :The diaphysis contains a hollow chamber

Endosteum: It's where themedullary cavity is lined with a thin layer of cells

Bone Marrow:It's where the medullary cavity is filled with a special type of connective tissue

Compact bone:is a very tightly packed tissue, which makes up the wall of the diaphysis

Spongy bone:consists of many branching bony plates called trabeculae

Name of all the Bones

Skull: Carnium and face

Hyoiod: the midline of the neck anteriorly at the base of the mandible and posteriorly at the fourth cervical vertebra

Clavicle: the bone that connects the breastplate (sternum) to the shoulder.

Scaula: Shoulder blade

Sternum: in the middle of the chest

Humerus: the largest bone of the upper extremity and defines the human brachium (arm).

Ribs:a set of twelve paired bones which form the protective 'cage' of the thorax.

Vertebral Column:the spinal cord and the fluid surrounding the spinal cord.

Coxal(Hip) Bone: arge, flattened, irregularly shaped bone

Radius: two bones that make up the forearm

Ulna: one of two bones that make up the forearm

Sacrum: the bottom of the spine

Coccyx: the very bottom portion of the spine.

Carpals: the eight small bones that make up the wrist (or carpus) that connects the hand to the forearm.

Metacarpal: a bone of the part of the hand or forefoot between the carpus and the phalanges

Phalanges(toes and fingers): The bones of the fingers and of the toes.

Femur: thighbone, upper bone of the leg or hind leg.

Patella: a thick flat triangular movable bone that forms the anterior point of the knee and protects the front of the joint

Tibla: The shin, inner and larger of the two bones of the lower leg in vertebrates

Fibula: outer of two bones of the lower leg or hind limb

Tarsal: angular bones that in humans make up the ankle

Metatarsal: the part of the human foot
