activity‚ the skeletal system can benefit widely‚ bone density can increase from physical activity‚ this is where the skeletal tissues become stronger therefore increasing the tensile stress‚ occurring when a material is subjected to a pulling or stretching force‚ of the bone‚ this decreases the chances of osteoporosis. Also other positive effects in the skeletal system can be where cartilage thickens; this aids the cushioning of joints and protects the bones from wear. Also you can gain a greater range

of surface markings do bones have? The two major types of surface markings are the: 1. Depression and Openings: They allow the passage of soft tissues (such as blood vessels and nerves) or from joints 2. Processes: They are projections or outgrowths that either help form joints or serve as attachment points for connective tissue (such as ligaments and tendons) B.)

Hassan’s Story A) Bones have two different types of surface markings. One type of surface marking is depressions and openings. This type allows for the passage of soft tissues such as nerves and blood vessels‚ and also forms joints in the bone. The other type of surface markings is processes. This type are projections or outgrowths that either serve as attachment points for connective tissues like ligaments and tendons or help to form joints. B) Liu and Hassan were surprised to find a

disorder that attacks the bones‚ making them fragile and weak‚ easy to break. Throughout a person’s lifetime with OI‚ a person may experience a few fractures to common breaks in the bone‚ due to trauma or everyday tasks. Different types of OI have been established to accommodate the wide range of the disease‚ from Type I to Type VIII. Because of those with more severe Osteogenesis Imperfecta‚ people have begun referring to the disease as brittle-bone disease‚ fragile-bone disease‚ and blue-sclera

called synovial joints‚ which means that they have a cavity in the joints that contains synovial fluid. Joints are not just made of bone‚ because if they were‚ friction would keep them from moving smoothly. The body uses cartilage and the synovial fluid to reduce friction in joints. Osteoarthritis happens when cartilage wears away over time and exposes bone to bone and increases friction‚ which is very painful. Synovial fluid is a fluid-like material that is present in many of the joints of the

T-score of -1‚ meaning Ms Fredrick’s bone density is that of osteopenia. This means that Ms Fredrick’s body is at risk of forming osteoporosis. Ms Fredrick can stop this from happening by quitting smoking‚ eating healthy‚ exercising and considering Hormone Replacement Therapy. As a menopausal woman Ms Fredrick is going through a hormone imbalance. During the menopause the endocrine system produces less of the hormone oestrogen which is important in healthy bone growth (Shaw L 2005). Ms Fredrick is

located behind the thyroid gland. The effects of parathyroid hormone on serum calcium are mediated by increasing renal tubular resorption of calcium‚ increasing calcium absorption from the intestines (via vitamin D) and increasing release of calcium from bone. Through their secretion of parathyroid hormone (PTH)‚ the parathyroid glands are primarily responsible for maintaining extracellular calcium concentrations. Hence‚ overproduction of parathyroid hormone results in elevated levels of plasma calcium
