Synovial Joints,bones,types Of Joints,classification Of Bones,types Of Movement,type Of Contractions,agonistic Pairs Flashcards
Flat bones
Responsible for protection for example the cranium and ribs
Short bones
Responsible for little movement examples of carples and fingers
Long bones
Responsible for big movements and more powerful leverage e.g. femur and humerus
Protection
Some bones protect vital organs for example the heart in the brain. This is needed one heading a ball in football and it prevents a brain damage
Blood cell production
Within bone marrow reproduce red and white blood cells red blood cells carry oxygen and white blood cells help the immune system.
E.g Endurance athletes. This improve fitness and health run for longer distance. The muscles need oxygen carried by the red blood cells therefore it is important that the body produces enough for the demands
Shape
Hold us upright and provide us with high and different builds gives us the structure. Within a weightlifter stance and gymnastics to keep in control with their movement
Movement
Bones provide anchor points and muscles to pull on and longer bones as levers to allow movement. Throwing a ball in football needs a long bones leave it to provide power and distance
Mineral storage
Bones store calcium and prosperous which is released into the body when needed. The rugby strong bones needs calcium to prevent easy breakages of bones
Support
Keeps us upright and hold muscles and organs in place. Tae kwondo provides force throughout movement while staying upright
Example of protection
The sternum within boxing to endure powerful force of the chest area without vital organ punctures
Function of bone
Movement and stability
Synovial membrane function
Produces synovial fluid
Ligament function
Joins bone to bone
Capsule function
Tough fibrous tissues
Bursae
Bag of fluid that helps protect joint
