Muscles attached to scapula: Levator scapulae origin is transverse processes of C1-C4‚ insertion at superior angle of scapula‚ it moves scapula and flexes neck. Pectoralis minor’s origin is ribs 3-5 and insertion at coracoid process of scapula‚ it depresses scapula and elevates ribs. Rhomboids Major and Rhomboids Minor’s origin at spinous processes T1-T4‚ insertion at medial border of scapula‚ they move scapula. Serratus anterior’s origin is at ribs 1-9‚ insertion is at medial border of scapula

Skeletal System Study Guide – Use the lecture folder to help you answer these questions. The more detail you add‚ the better prepared for the test you will be. 1. What are the functions of the skeleton? support the body protection of internal organs - provide sight for tendon and other connective tissue attachment - Storage of materials (minerals) - Hematopoiesis (blood formation) 2. How many bones do we have in our body? 206 in the adult body 3. What do bones

The Skeletal System is the framework of the body‚ consisting of 206 bones as well as a network of tendons that is made of tough band of fibrous collagen tissue connecting a muscle to bone‚ ligaments connecting bones to joint and cartilage that allows some flexibility of movement. The skeletal system serves 4 functions: (1) Giving the body its shape (2) Protecting the vital internal organs (3) Allowing for movement (4) Storing minerals and producing blood cells The skeletal system has 6 basic components:

Chapter 6 The Skeletal System: Bones and Joints PART I * A born baby has about 276 bones while an adult has 206 bones‚ this is because as you grow some bones join together in a single bone. * Bones are 20% of your weight. * The Skeletal System consist of: * Bones * Cartilages * Tendons * Ligaments * Joints * Functions of the skeletal system -bones perform various anatomic (mechanical) & physiologic function. They: 1. Stabilize‚ provide shape & support the

Chapter 5: The Skeletal System I. Introduction. The skeletal system consists of the bones‚ along with the cartilage and fibrous connective tissue that make up the ligaments that connect bones to bone at joints. A. Functions of the Skeleton. 1. The skeleton supports the body. 2. The skeleton protect soft body parts. The skull protects the brain‚ the rib cage protects the heart and lungs‚ and the vertebrae protect the spinal cord. 3. The skeleton produces blood cells. Red bone marrow contains

In Portugal‚ for example‚ the use of volunteer firefighters is standard‚ along with career firefighters. In Australia there are volunteer brigades which are mostly unpaid rural services‚ although traditionally

musculoskeletal system is made up of bones‚ joints‚ and muscles. This system gives the body form and support‚ and protects the body while allowing it to move. Basically‚ the muscles in this system perform three important body functions: the movement of body parts‚ maintenance of body parts‚ and production of body heat. These muscles all consist of a mass of protein fibers grouped together‚ and most are of mesodermal origin. And almost all of the muscle fibers you will ever have or need were present at

Nutrition A Muscle Contraction Muscle Contraction is part of an organ in the body that is tensive. It may have a process of tensions that may be developed with muscle tissues. Contraction can be a meaning of shortening or long. Muscle Contraction can also produce a muscle cell that is for movement of the body. Myosin and Actin is an interaction protein to Muscle Contraction‚ it can be changed by shape but not by volume. Skeletal Muscle contraction is produce by heat. The muscles may receive signal

Muscle fatigue is weakness or weariness resulting from exertion or prolonged stress and the failure to maintain an expected power output. (Amussen) The process by which your body produces energy is called glycolysis. During glycolysis‚ glycogen is broken to produce creatine phosphate‚ which releases energy. The energy released catalyzes a reaction to produce ATP. The ending product of glycolysis is lactic acid‚ which is created by breaking pyruvate acid down. Then lactic acid is broken down to produce
