state‚ and a dry state. The bones that were burned in a green states were easily recognized by the pronounced attachment of flesh to the bones and the fresh appearance of the remains‚ whereas the dry state didn’t have any flesh attached and was just bones (Ubelaker‚ 2008). Forensic anthropologist could also differentiate between the two types of burning states through the external changes that occurred to the bones as they were burned. In the green (fleshed) state‚ the bones displayed transverse fractures

Synarthroses joints come together at a point at which adjacent bones are bound by collagen fibers that emerge from the matrix of one bone‚ cross the space between them‚ and penetrate into the matrix of the other. c. Syndesmoses are functionally a bit different. They are classified as amphiarthroses. Explain why. Amphiarthrosis is a type of continuous‚ slightly moveable joint. In syndesmoses‚ the fibers are longer and the attached bones are more movable. There is a greater distance between the articulating

The Aging Musculoskeletal System When the bones lose mass and become brittle it is called osteoporosis. Loss of bone density accelerates in women after menopause. Mrs. Smith is an 84 year old thin‚ small boned woman. Muscles‚ bones and joints are affected by the ageing process. Osteoarthritis‚ osteoporosis and rheumatoid arthritis are more common in older people. Exercise to increase muscle and bone fitness can reduce or reverse the risk of disability and disease. Some age-related changes‚ such

body’s systems work together. One body system often times cannot work without the help of another system. The best example of systems working together is the skeletal system and the muscular system. Muscles are attached to bones; the muscles make the bones move. Without bones there is nothing to hold together the structure of muscles. Without both of these systems working together our body would be impossible to move on its own. The skeletal system is the system in our body that provides protection

It is incredibly strong and affords us great protection‚ but it is also incredibly light‚ giving us a great range of mobility. As you go on to explore the human body‚ knowledge of bone names will help you navigate the world of muscles and joints as well as other body systems.
