life. Humans spines have evolved to bear weight and stress which will also cause humans to have back injuries and back pain later in life. When humans began walking on two legs‚ which caused a series of modifications to take place in the human skeletal system. In humans‚ the spinal cord comes out of the base of the skull‚ called the foramen magnum and goes straight downwards. While in chimpanzees the spinal cord comes out of the back of the skull. The chimpanzees pelvis is long and narrow. Humans pelvis

Most of our skeletal muscles are attached to bone on either end by tendons. As the muscles contract‚ they exert force on the bones. This force helps to support and move our body. Normally one end of the muscle is fixed in its position and the other end moves during contraction. The Origin is the attachment site that is stationary during contraction. The insertion is the site that does move when a muscle contracts. When we discuss the position of the Origin and insertion points‚ the insertion

The bone is a living tissue made up of tough elastic collagen fibers and minerals and contains cells that make and moulds itself in a process called bone resorption‚ it also forms the rigid skeletal framework that protects body organs. Osteoporosis is influenced by various factors such as genetic‚ sex‚ hormones nutrition‚ environment and others‚ As we grow bones tend to form fast‚ and as a result new bones are added to the skeleton than old

Its characteristics are: covers the entire body‚ accounts for about 7% of total body weight‚ pliable‚ yet durable‚ thickness: 1.5 to 4.0 mm‚ composed of the epidermis and dermis. 2.

Each feature works within the next to create and keep structure of the skeletal system.
