The Skeletal System Caleb Cornelious The skeletal system is one of the most important systems in the human anatomy. Without this system our bodies wouldn’t have any source of motion or movement. From the skull all the way to the toes of our feet‚ everything is important. Out of the 206 bones‚ they all form our different shapes and make us all unique. They create our frame work and enables us the move and perform our different activities during our everyday life. Another thing that the skeletal system

and females. Men have more lean muscle mass and respiration occurs at the cellular level of the mitochondria in the muscle‚ so the more mitochondria means the body can be in a longer state of aerobic respiration (Bonen & Shaw 2008). 2b) V02 max decrease is accompanied by the loss of lean muscle tissue as one ages. According to a study by Betik and Hepple (1988)‚ the reduced rate of muscle oxygen delivery caused by a lowered cardiac output‚ reduced skeletal muscle oxidative capacity and mitochondrial

Inflammation- Inflammation is the bulging of skin‚ organs‚ or other body parts due to fluid buildup caused an injury. The fluid rushes to the injured area and that is what makes the puffiness. 2.

Shape: The skeletal system gives the human body structure. It supports the internal organs that are held within the body in a network of tissue. Bones give us form. In sports support and shape are also used for example in a rugby scum‚ to body needs to be placed in such a way to keep the back aligned. Movement/ Attachment: The skeleton is jointed to allow movement. A joint is an articulation of two or more connecting bones‚ providing us with either stability or movement. Muscles are attached

List of Skeletal System Diseases The 206 bones of the skeletal system provide a strong framework upon which muscles‚ tissues and organs can attach. This structure also protects your internal organs and allows your body to move around freely. Like any other body system‚ however‚ disease can affect your skeletal system. Arthritis Arthritis is an inflammatory condition that affects your joints‚ such as the knees‚ or a portion of your spinal column. Typical symptoms of this condition include joint

skeletal system is divided into 2 divisions : the AXIAL SKELETON and the APPENDICULAR SKELETON. the axial skeleton consists of your SKULL‚ HYOID BONE‚ and VERTEBRAL COLUMN. and then your APPENDICULAR SKELETON consists of your SHOULDER GIRDLE‚ UPPER EXTREMITIES‚ and LOWER EXTREMITIES. your skull is the superior portion of your axial skeleton‚ wherein you can find your frontal bone‚ that forms the anterior third of your cranial dome‚ parrietal bone‚ that forms the middle segment of the cranial dome
