For this assignment we are looking at the skeletal system. The skeleton is the internal framework of our body. It is made up of three things; bones‚ cartilage and joints. Without these three things we would just be a heap of skin‚ muscle and internal organs. The skeleton is made up of 206 bones that are separated into two groups. Firstly‚ the Axial Skeleton. The Axial skeleton is made up of 80 different bones whereas the Appendicular skeleton is made up of 126 bones. The Axial Skeleton The axial

Muscular System: As I examined the muscular system I did not see why it could have been affected by the disease. The muscles can get glucose from the blood with the help of insulin. This helps lower blood sugar levels. But because this disease does not produce a lot of insulin it can not get glucose from the blood. This means muscles can’t get the “fuel” they need. This system is not affected by the disease because the patient did not have high blood sugar levels and his muscles look pink and health

Summarise the positive and negative effects on the skeletal and muscular systems of a young person performing contact‚ high impact and repetitive sports. There can be both positive and negative outcomes to a young performer. Positive effects can be the strengthening of the body. Negative effects can be that serious injuries can occur to the undeveloped young performer’s body and not be able to do that sport after. The skeletal system and the muscular system are both systems in the body that can benefit

Homeostasis and how the body responds to exercise. This report will interpret the results of the practical activities that was done in order to monitor the changes in heart rate‚ temperature and blood pressure before and after exercise. Blood pressure is the measure of how much pressure is put on the walls of the blood vessels when the blood is pumped through them. This is measured in two parts‚ the larger number on top is known as the systolic pressure‚ this measures the pressure as the blood

Chapter 6 The Skeletal System: Bones and Joints PART I * A born baby has about 276 bones while an adult has 206 bones‚ this is because as you grow some bones join together in a single bone. * Bones are 20% of your weight. * The Skeletal System consist of: * Bones * Cartilages * Tendons * Ligaments * Joints * Functions of the skeletal system -bones perform various anatomic (mechanical) & physiologic function. They: 1. Stabilize‚ provide shape & support the
