skeletal system responses Flashcards
1
Q
response of exersise on skeletal system
A
- more synovial fluid is produced, meaning they are lubricated and can deal with the amount of stress during exersise
- bigger uptake of minerals. meaning bones are thicker and dense. meaning can deal with more weight bearing exerise
2
Q
what are the adapatations of the skeletal system?
A
- bone density increases more resistant to force and impact
- ligaments increase in strenght. becoming more plieable
3
Q
factors affecting skeletal system
A
- arthritis= inflamation of synovial joint. causes pain and rubbing of cartlidge.
- osteoperosis= wekaing of bones due to lack of calcuim or vitamen D
- age= bone density decreases. bones become weaker and more fragile
