BotZoo Test 5 Flashcards
skeletal system function
support for body
protection of body parts
movement
movement
muscles exert force against skeletal system, resulting in movement
hydrostatic skeleton
cnidarian, platyhelmenthes, nematoda, annelida, Mollusca
- gastrovascular cavity
- pseudo/coelom
exoskeleton
arthropoda
-chiton and protein
endoskeleton
chordata, Echinodermata, porifera
- chordata: cartilage, bone
- Echinodermata: calcium carbonate
- porifera: spicules- silica, protein
human skeletal system functions
- protect: skull, ribcage, pelvis
- movement
- support
- sensory transduction- ear
- hematopoiesis- red bone marrow
- adipose storage - yellow bone marrow
- calcium and phosphate storage
red bone marrow
create blood cells
yellow bone marrow
storage of fats

tissues of human skeletal system
- ligaments: holds bones together- connective tissue
- cartilage: shock absorber
- bone: collagen; calcium phosphate
osteoblast
builds bone
osteocyte
mature bone cell
osteoclast
break down bone
calcitonin
bones absorb calcium
parathormone
bones release calcium
osteoporosis
porous bones- decrease bone density
estrogen- decrease osteoblast activity
prevent it: exercise, calcium, estrogen substances, drugs
ligaments
bone to bone
tendons
muscle to bone
joints
ball and socket, hinge, pivital
ball and socket
hip and shoulder
hinge
one directional movement; knee and elbow
pivital
wrist, neck
