Skeletal System and the Muscular System
Anatomy and Physiology
Introduction
In this assignment i will carry full investigation and analysis on the Skeletal system,using my class notes,researching on the internet and reading books. The Skeletal system is the system of bones, associated cartilages and joints of human body. Together these structures form the human skeleton. Skeleton can be defined as the hard framework of human body around which the entire body is built. Almost all the hard parts of human body are components of human skeletal system. Joints are very important because they make the hard and rigid skeleton allow different types of movements at different locations. If the skeleton were without joints, no movement would have taken place and the significance of human body; no more than a stone.
Aim
My aim in this assignment in anatomy and physiology is to investigate and learn about the relationship between the skeletal system and the muscular system .I will explain in detail what the skeletal and muscular system is nd lso will investigate one injury of the musculoskeletal system and will examine the symptoms and treatment of the specific injury .
The Skeletal System-The Skeletal system has very important functions , Support, Protection, Assisting in Movement, Storage in minerals,blood cell production .
Support-The human skeleton provides us with a means of support, if we didn’t have a skeletal structure for support of the body we wouldn’t be able to stand up or move about and perform actions. The skeleton is the frame for which all other body parts are held together by and provide the necessary support.
Protection-The skeleton provides us with protection for our major organs and prevents organ damage. For example the rib cage houses the lungs and heart and protects them from damage and provides support, the bones around major organs are designed to house and protect. The reason for this is any damage to an organ can be fatal.
Movement-The skeleton provides us
