- Musculo-Skeletal System
- Skeletal System
- Classifications of bones
- Long
- Bones that are longer than they are wide
- All the limb bones in the body besides the patella as well as the wrist and ankle bones
- Bones that are longer than they are wide
- Flat
- They offer protection for the vital organs as well as space for muscle attachment
- Such as the ribs, cranium, patella, sternum, scapula and clavicle
- They offer protection for the vital organs as well as space for muscle attachment
- Short
- Small bones in the body which are typically used for weight bearing
- Such as the carpals (wrist) and tarsals (toes)
- Small bones in the body which are typically used for weight bearing
- Irregular
- Bones that have different shapes and look different to all the other bones
- Such as the vertebrae and the patella
- They have a range of functions: some are used for protection, whilst others are used for muscle attachment
- Bones that have different shapes and look different to all the other bones
- Long
- Functions of the skeletal system
- Protection of vital organs
- Muscle attachment via tendons
- Joints for movement
- Storage of phosphorus and calcium
- Production of red blood cells and white blood cells
- The structure of the skeletal system
- Clavicle
- Humerus
- Sternum
- Ribs
- Pelvis
- Ulna
- Femur
- Patella
- Radius
- Tarsals
- Carpals
- Metatarsals
- Metacarpals
- Ohalanges
- Crainium
- scapula
- Tibia
- Fibula
- Cervical vertebrae
- Lumbar vertebrae
- Thoracic vertebrae
- Coccygeal vertebrae
- Sacral vertebrae
- Classifications of bones
- Muscular System
- Types of muscles
- Voluntary
- under our control, can be contracted and relaxed at will
- all the muscles attached to the skeleton
- under our control, can be contracted and relaxed at will
- Involuntary
- not under our control
- linings of the blood vessels as well as organs
- not under our control
- Cardiac
- not under our control
- lines the heart to maintain a heartbeat
- not under our control
- Voluntary
- muscles
- Deltoid
- Gluteals
- Triceps
- Hamstrings
- Gastrocnemius
- Latissimus dorsi
- Biceps
- External obliques
- Pectoralis major
- Hip Flexors
- Tibialis anterior
- Quadriceps
- Antagonistic Pairs
- When muscles work together to cause movement
- the muscle which contracts is called the agonist
- the muscle which relaxes is the antagonist
- biceps and triceps
- quadriceps and hamstrings
- gastrocnemius and tibialis anterior
- Types of muscles
- Joints
- A place where two or more bones meet
- Ball and socket joint
- e.g. the hip or the shoulder
- allows for adduction and abduction
- Condyloin joint
- Allows for flexion, extension, adduction and abduction
- e.g. the wrist
- Hinge joint
- allows for flexion and extension/ backwards and forwards movement
- e.g. the knee, elbow or elbow
- Pivot joint
- Allows for rotation
- e.g. in the neck: the atlas and axis vertebrae
