Skeletal System Flashcards
What are the Four types of Bone Cells?
- Osteoprogenitor
- Osteoblast
- Osteocytes
- Osteoblasts
It is considered as the bone-building bone cell?
Osteoblast
A type of bone cell that destroys and remodel other bone cells?
Osteoclasts
A bone with root word that means “origin?”
Osteoprogenitor
Organic components of the Bone Matrix?
Collagen and Proteoglycans
Inorganic component of the Bone Matrix?
Hydroxyapatite
How many bones are there on a Human Adult?
206
Classify the bones in your body according to their structure.
Long Bones, Short Bones, Irregular Bones and Flat Bones
2 groups of your Skeleton
Axial Skeleton and Appendicular Skeleton
Give me the Bones in your Axial Skeleton?
Axial Skeleton
1. Skull
2. Auditory Ossicles
3. Hyoid
4. Vertebral Column
5. Pectoral Girdle
6. Pelvic Girdle
The bones in your Appendicular Skeleton
Upper Limbs and Lower Limbs
Give me the two bone groups in the skull.
Facial Bones and Cranium
Bones in your Cranium
- Frontal bone
- Left Parietal bone
- Right Parietal Bone
- Sphenoid
- Ethmoid
- Left Temporal
- Right Temporal
- Occipital Bone
State the Facial Bones
Paired Bones
1. Maxillae
2. Nasal
3. Lacrimal
4. Zygomatic
5. Inferior Nasal Conchae
6. Palatine
Unpaired
1. Mandible
2. Vomer
It is the only bone in your neck
Hyoid Bone
Bone in your Back
Vertebral Column
Give me the Vertebrae on your vertebral Column?
- Cervical vertebrae (C1-C7)
- Thoracic Vertebrae (T1-T12)
- Lumbar Vertebrae (L1-L5)
- Sacrum (S1-S5)
- Coccyx Vertebra (Co1-Co4)
Give me the 2 initial vertebra on your Cervical Vertebrae.
Atlas - the man who held the world
Axis - enables your to shake your head and indicates “no”
It is considered as the Keystone of your cranium?
Sphenoid
Why is Sphenoid considered as the keystone bone?
Sphenoid articulates almost all the cranial bones in the skull.
It is the Scientific Term for Chewing?
Mastication
Give me the functions of your Clavicles
The Clavicle plays an essential role in functional movement, serving as the connection between the axial skeleton and the pectoral girdle.
