Anatomy and Physiology Introduction In this assignment i will carry full investigation and analysis on the Skeletal system‚using my class notes‚researching on the internet and reading books. The Skeletal system is the system of bones‚ associated cartilages and joints of human body. Together these structures form the human skeleton. Skeleton can be defined as the hard framework of human body around which the entire body is built. Almost all the hard parts of human body are components of human

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).

In an article written by Gretchen Reynolds of the New York Times called “Stretching: The Truth”‚ she talks about stretching and the true health benefits that it brings the body. The article talks about the proper ways to stretch‚ warm up‚ and cool down for whatever activities you are planning to partake in. The article talks about how Duane Knudson‚ a professor of kinesiology at California State University looked at athletes who warmed up and stretched all over campus. He was discouraged with

skeleton disorders in later life. Other key parts of joints are ligaments (which join bone to bone to keep the structure of the joint) and tendons (which join muscle to bone which is how the muscles are able to move the bones). Ligaments are very tough and inflexible because they are needed for structure. They can tear which can be very serious. On the other hand‚ tendons are flexible because they are always moving. However‚ this means that they can snap which can be very dangerous and take a long time

Connective tissue becomes stiffer as one ages‚ which makes muscles and tendons more prone to injury. There is a decrease in muscle mass and strength as well as bone mass. Playing tennis regularly can prevent this from

The knees‚ wrists‚ ankles‚ and finger joints are most commonly affected. Tenosynovitis most commonly affects the flexor tendon sheaths of the wrist or the Achilles tendon ("lovers’ heels") [Angulo JM et al 1999] However the symptoms of DGI vary from patient to patient. By the time the symptoms of DGI appear‚ many patients no longer have any localized symptoms of mucosal infection. The classic
