Monday 9/25/17 Chapter One textbook Bones Flashcards
The skeleton is comprised of two major components:
- A mineral component that provides rigidity
2. A protein component that makes it resistant to tension
Bone tissue is hardened by…
calcium salts, which represent ~98% of the calcium body storage
The skeleton consists of two segments:
- Axial skeleton - skull, hyoid bone, vertebral column, and rib cage
- Appendicular skeleton - the limbs and their respective girdles
Refer to Advanced Concepts of Personal Training Textbook pgs 1-2 for a detailed description of bone classifications.

a. Irregular bones
Bones with a broad connective surface, like the scapulae (shoulder blade) are called (a)_________
a. flat bones
A vertebra is…
One of the bony or cartilaginous segments composing the spinal column - consisting in some lower vertebrates of several distinct elements which never become united, and in higher vertebrates having a short more or less cylindrical body whose ends articulate by pads of elastic or cartilaginous tissue with those of adjacent vertebrae and a bony arch that encloses the spinal cord
A scapula (plural scapulae) is…
Either of a pair of large triangular bones lying one in each dorsal lateral part of the thorax, being the principal bone of the corresponding half of the shoulder girdle, and articulating with the corresponding clavicle or coracoid — called also the shoulder blade
