skeletal system does. The bones allow humans not to be “blobs‚” there would be no support to do things like standing‚ walking‚ sitting‚ kneeling or crawling. The skeletal system is made up of connective tissues (bone‚ cartilage‚ tendons‚ and ligaments)‚ blood vessels that run through canals in the bone and muscles to aide in mobility. Bones are considered a type of mineralized connective tissue that contains collagen and calcium phosphate (which gives bones their firmness). Bones provide protection to

Muscles work like leavers and this allow the bones at a joint to work like hinges. When moving someone it is important to remember that the muscles can only move the joint as far as the bone will allow them. 1.2 Describe the impact of specific conditions on the correct movement and positioning of an individual.

system. The skeletal system is made up of bones which have an outer hard cortical layer and an inner soft trabecular layer made of cancellous bone. Within some long bone is the all important marrow from where all the blood cells originate after maturation. The skeletal system can be divided into 2 groups: 1. Axial skeleton: The bones here include the skull and bones of the vertebrae column. The skull is subdivided into the 8 cranial bones and 14 facial bones‚ while the vertebrae column is made up

Many disorders and illnesses baffle doctors and scientists today even with our modern technology. Fibrodysplasia ossificans progressive‚ also known as FOP‚ is a rare disorder that affects 1 of 2 million people‚ where a person grows a second layer of bone around their skeleton. Even though we are researching cures today‚ to help progress future cures we need to inform the public of how FOP functions. The earliest documented occurrence of FOP dates back to the 17th and 18th centuries‚ where doctors were

made up of bones called vertebrae. A vertebra can crack just like any other bone in the body. When the vertebral body collapses‚ this is called a vertebral compression fracture. These fractures occur more frequently in the thoracic spine (the central portion of the spine)‚ in particular in the lower part. These fractures are generally caused by a condition such as osteoporosis‚ a very hard fall‚ or another type of injury. Causes- The vertebrae may fracture or collapse due to reduction of bone tissue
