60% the weight of the bone mineral

Rest - water & matrix.

90% of the matrix proteins collagen 1/3 of the bone weight

very strong forms bone, cartilage, skin, and tendons.

Page 11: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

The skeleton is composed of cartilages and bones.Cartilage

resilient, semirigid form of connective tissue forms parts of the skeleton where more flexibility is required.

CARTILAGES AND BONES

Ribs (L. costae) curved flat bones form most of the thoracic cage. 3 types of ribs: True (vertebrocostal) ribs (1st-7th ribs): directly to the sternum.

False (vertebrochondral) ribs (8th, 9th, and usually 10th ribs): indirect with the sternum

Floating (vertebral, free) ribs (11th, 12th, and sometimes 10th ribs): No connection with the sternum

G. sternon, chestHas three parts:

1. Manubrium

2. Body

3. Xiphoid process

Page 22: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

VERTEBRAL COLUMN In an adult typically consists of 33 vertebrae arranged in five regions:

7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 sacral, and 4 coccygeal.

Page 23: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

CLAVICLE (TR. KÖPRÜCÜK KEMİĞİ)

Its medial half articulates with the manubrium of the sternum.

Its lateral half articulates with the scapula.

These curvatures increase the resilience of the clavicle and give it the appearance of an elongated capital S.

23

Page 24: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

Scapula (Tr. Kürek kemiği)

The scapula (shoulder blade) is a triangular flat bone that lies on the posterolateral aspect of the thorax.

The scapula has an articular surface; a glenoid cavity (G. socket) for the articulation with the head of the humerus.

24

Page 25: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

largest bone in the upper limb

articulates with the scapula at the glenohumeral joint

articulates with the radius and ulna at the elbow joint.

The proximal end of the humerus has a head, surgical and anatomical necks, and greater and lesser tubercles.

ULNA

Its more massive proximal end is specialized for articulation with the humerus proximally and the head of the radius laterally.

Page 27: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

lateral and shorter of the two forearm bones. Its proximal end includes a short head, neck.

27

Proximally, the head of the radius is concave for articulation with the humerus during flexion and extension of the elbow joint.

The head also articulates with the ulna.

The shaft of the radius, in contrast to that of the ulna, gradually enlarges as it passes distally.

RADIUS

Page 28: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

The metacarpus forms the skeleton of the palm of the hand between the carpus and the phalanges.

It is composed of five metacarpal bones (metacarpals).

The proximal bases of the metacarpals articulate with the carpal bones, and the distal heads of the metacarpals articulate with the proximal phalanges and form the knuckles.

28

Page 29: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

The skeleton of the lower limb (inferior appendicular skeleton) may be divided into two functional components: 1. pelvic girdle 2. bones of the free lower limb.

29

Page 30: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

In the mature individual, the pelvic girdle is formed by three bones:Right and left hip bones (coxal bones; pelvic bones): large, irregularly shaped bones, each of which develops from the fusion of three bones, the ilium, ischium, and pubis.

according to the tissues that lie between the bones:

1) Fibrous joints Syndesmosis type of fibrous joint

2) Cartilaginous joints

3) Synovial joints

Classification of Joints

Page 36: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

Types of synovial jointsaccording to shape of articulating surfaces- type of

movement they permit

1.Plane joints uniaxial joints- gliding or sliding acromioclavicular joint

2. Hinge joints uniaxial joints- flexion & extensionknee & elbow joints

JOINTS OF THE UPPER LIMBSternoclavicular joint (SC)

sternal end of the clavicle articulates with manubrium & 1st costal cartilage

The only articulation between upper limb & axial skeleton.

During full elevation of the limb, clavicle is raised to 60° angle.

Page 43: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

Glenohumeral (shoulder) jointpermits a wide range of movement; mobility makes the

joint relatively unstable. Humeral head articulates w/ glenoid cavity of the scapula

deepened slightly but effectively by the ring-like, fibrocartilaginous glenoid labrum (L., lip).

Page 44: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

Glenohumeral (shoulder) joint more freedom of movement than any other

joint in the body results from the laxity of its joint capsule & large size of the humeral head compared with the small size of the glenoid cavity.

Proximal (superior) radio-ulnar joint allows movement of the head of the radius on the ulna

Radial head is held in position by the anular ligament of the radius.

Distal (inferior) radio-ulnar jointThe radius moves around the relatively fixed distal end of

the ulna.

Page 47: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

Wrist (radiocarpal) joint ulna does not participate in the wrist joint.

Distal end of the radius & articular disc of the distal radio-ulnar joint articulate with

proximal row of carpal bones, except for the pisiform.

Skeletal muscles function by contracting they pull and never push.

When a muscle contracts and shortensone of its attachments usually remains fixed the other attachment (more mobile) pulled toward it

movement

CONTRACTION OF MUSCLES

Page 56: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

Functions of muscles

Prime mover (agonist) main muscle responsible for producing a specific movement of the body. Fixator steadies the proximal parts of a limb through isometric contraction while movements are occurring in distal parts.Synergist complements the action of a prime mover. Usual to have several synergists assisting a prime mover in a particular movement

Page 57: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

Antagonist a muscle that opposes the action of another muscle. A primary antagonist directly opposes the prime mover, synergists may also be opposed by secondary antagonists.

The same muscle may act as a prime mover, antagonist, synergist, or fixator under different conditions.

Page 58: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

Muscles of the Face and the Scalp

The facial muscles (muscles of facial expression) move the skin and change facial expressions to convey mood.

Most muscles attach to bone or fascia and produce their effects by pulling the skin.

Page 59: SKYPE  ANATOMY  MIDTERM NOTES

Cutaneous (sensory) innervation of the face and anterosuperior part of the scalp is provided primarily by the trigeminal nerve (CN V).

Motor innervation to the facial muscles is provided by the facial nerve (CN VII).

2.1. FUNCTIONS OF THE THORACIC WALL1) Protects vital thoracic and abdominal organs2) Resists the negative (sub-atmospheric) internal pressures

generated by the elastic recoil of the lungs and inspiratory movements.

3) Provides attachment for and support the weight of the upper limbs.

4) Provides the origins of many of the muscles that move and maintain the position of the upper limbs relative to the trunk.

5) Provides attachments for muscles of the abdomen, neck, back, and respiration.

7. MOVEMENTS OF THE THORACIC WALL

One of the principal functions of the thoracic wall and the diaphragm is to alter the volume of the thorax and thereby move air in and out of the lungs.During breathing, the dimensions of the thorax change in vertical, lateral, and A-P directions.

Diaphragm contracts DepressionDiaphragm relaxes Elevation (during passive expiration)
