activities are involved in muscle contraction. The sequence of contraction process is originated in the central nervous system. It can be either a voluntary activity from the brain or a reflex activity from the spinal cord. An action potential passes outward in a ventral root of the spinal cord as a motor neuron in the ventral horn is stimulated. The axon branch to supply numerous muscle fibers or motor units and the action potential is carried to a motor end plate on each muscle fiber. Then the action

MUSCULOSKELETAL FRACTURES ● Fracture is a disruption or break in the continuity of the bone structure. ● Traumatic injuries account for the majority of fractures. ● Fractures can be classified as displaced (open) or nondisplaced (closed) depending on communication or noncommunication with the external environment. ● Signs include immediate localized pain‚ decreased function‚ and inability to bear weight or use affected part. Obvious bone deformity may be present. ● Bone goes through eight stages of selfhealing (union)

BCS 145 LAB: AXIAL SKELETON WHY ARE WE DOING THIS LAB? The skeletal framework of the body is composed of at least 206 bones and the associated tendons‚ ligaments‚ and cartilages. The skeletal system has a variety of important functions‚ including‚ the support of soft tissues‚ blood cell production‚ mineral/electrolyte and lipid storage‚ and‚ through its relationships with the muscular system‚ the support and movement of the body as a whole. Skeletal system disorders can thus affect many other

A) Growth plate and Endochondral ossification: In order to maintain a healthy skeletal system which is crucial for different organs such as respiratory system‚ brain‚ spinal cord and heart‚ it is very important to have a good development of the skeletal system. Endochondral ossification is the process through which the axial and appendicular skeletons are formed through the formation of a cartilage inter-mediate. A good model for endochondral ossification is the limb bud where the precursor cells
