‘socket’ created by the glenoid fossa of the scapula. This allows for a wide range of motion around several axes. There are two main bones that make up the shoulder joint‚ the humerus and the scapula. The ball of the humerus is stabilized and cushioned by cartilage around the glenoid fossa socket. Ligaments connect the bones together and tendons then connect those bones to surrounding muscles. For example‚ the

The clavicle helps to support the muscles of the arm and neck. 3. There are several markings on the Humerus bone that can define which one it is‚ right or left.

The respiratory system is composed of the nasal cavity‚ nostril‚ oral cavity‚ pharynx‚ larynx‚ trachea‚ carina of trachea‚ right main bronchus‚ right lung‚ left main bronchus‚ left lung‚ and diaphragm. These major organs collectively work together to give the body oxygen and eliminate carbon dioxide as we breathe. In order for the respiratory system to be fully capable of function‚ four procedures (pulmonary ventilation‚ external respiration‚ transport of respiratory gases‚ internal respiration)

connective tissue. It is one of the medical world’s most rare and debilitating illnesses. As its common name says‚ Stone Man’s Disease causes “bone tissue begins to grow where muscles‚ tendons‚ and other connective tissues should be‚ effectively restricting movement” (Torres‚ 2013). As a result‚ the boy’s ligaments‚ tendons‚ and muscles form into solid bone. The individual with the disease will eventually develop a second skeleton over top of his/her original one (Panter‚ 2013).

The Musculoskeletal System The Musculoskeletal System combines the skeletal system and the muscular system. All of the bones‚ cartilage‚ muscles‚ joints‚ tendons and ligaments in a person’s body compose what is known as the musculoskeletal system. The bones provide the body with a framework‚ giving it shape and support; they also serve as protection for internal organs such as the lungs and liver. Muscles are fibres that help to make deliberate movement of a body part or involuntary movement within

It is made of about 206 bones‚ that are divided in tho categories: axial bones (in the body by itself) and apendicular bones (arms & legs). We have Joints too.

of cobalt and chromium. The plastic is a high-density polyethylene. The hard metal simulates the bone and the soft but durable plastic simulates the cartilage. Although the artificial parts are intended to be wear resistant‚ the daily rubbing of these surfaces against each other during normal movements creates tiny particles of debris. After many years the wear and tear may damage the surrounding bone and will require another hip joint replacement. BibliographyChiras‚ D. D. (2008). hip. Grolier

positioning of individuals. The spinal column is made up of individual bones called vertebrae. In between the bones there are joints that connect these together. A ligament connects bone to support joints. Muscles work by the fibers they contain contracting; this makes the muscle shorten. When the muscle shortens it pulls on the tendon and then on the bone to which it is attached. Muscles are connected to bones by tendons. Bones in limbs are covered with tissue.
