Skeletal System Flashcards
Provides framework in our body, protects our internal organ, and also produce blood cells
Bones
number of bones in our body
206
soft part of the bone, located at the end of long bone, contain red blood cells
spongy bone
made of collagen, it is a hard bone
compact bone
bone covered in two layers
periosteum and endosteum
outer layer of the bone
periosteum
inner layer of the bone
endosteum
composed of organic and inorganic substances of the bone, non living part of the bone
bone matrix
runs through our yellow bone marrow
blood vessels
carries deoxygenated blood in our body
veins
carries oxygenated blood in our body
arteries
end part of the bone or distal end of the bone, upper end part of lower end part
epiphysis
the middle part of the bone
diaphysis
2 subdivision of skeletal system
axial skeleton and appendicular skeleton
are the bone that can be found in the middle part of our body, they belongs to the long axis of our body
axial skeleton
these are the bones located in the distal part or lateral part of the body, upper and lower extremities, it is our arms, hands, and legs
appendicular skeleton
protects and covered the brain from the outside, it is the hard membrane or the external, made up of 28 bones
skull
where we can see the frontal lobe, anterior or front part of the skull
contains the frontal sinuses, forms the upper part of the Orbis, forms the coronal suture with the two parietal bones
frontal bone
posterior part of the skull, where usually the vertebral column attached
occipital bone
flat bone, top part of the skull, form the bulging top of the cranium, forms several suture
parietal bone
skull bone close to the ears, located at the lateral part of the skull, forms the lower sides of the cranium and part of the cranial floor, contains the inner and middle ears
temporal bone
separate the frontal and parietal bone
coronal suture
found between the frontal and temporal bones. A bat-shaped boned located central portion of the cranial floor. contains the sphenoid sinuses
sphenoid bone
