• Many organs are named for their relationships to nearby bones • Understanding muscle movements also depends on knowledge of skeletal anatomy • Positions, shapes, and processes of bones can serve as landmarks for clinicians
7-2 Overview of the Skeleton

Frontal bone Parietal bone • Axial skeleton is Occipital bone Skull Maxilla colored tan Mandible Mandible – Forms central Clavicle Clavicle Pectoral girdle Scapula Scapula supporting axis of the Sternum body Thoracic Ribs Humerus cage Costal cartilages – Skull, vertebrae, sternum, ribs, Vertebral column sacrum, and hyoid Hip bone Pelvis Sacrum Ulna Coccyx Radius Carpus • Appendicular Metacarpal bones Phalanges skeleton is colored green Femur – Pectoral girdle Patella – Upper extremity
Fibula – Pelvic girdle Tibia – Lower extremity
Metatarsal bones Tarsus Phalanges 8-3 Figure 8.1 (a) Anterior view (b) Posterior view Bones of the Skeletal System
• Number of bones – 206 in typical adult skeleton • Varies with development of sesamoid bones (patella) – Bones that form within some tendons in response to stress • Varies with presence of sutural (wormian) bones in skull – Extra bones that develop in skull suture lines – 270 bones at birth, decreases with fusion • Surface markings – Ridges, spines, bumps, depressions, canals, pores, slits, cavities, and articular surfaces
8-4 Anatomical Features of Bones
• Bone markings—ridges, spines, bumps, depressions, canals, pores, slits, cavities, and articular surfaces
• Ways to study bones – Articulated skeleton: held together by wire and rods, show spatial relationship to each other – Disarticulated bones: bones taken apart so their surface features can be studied in more detail

• Expected Learning Outcomes – Distinguish between cranial and facial bones. – Name the bones of the skull and the anatomical features. – Identify the cavities in the skull and in some of its individual bones. – Name the principal sutures that join the bones of the skull. – Describe some bones that are closely associated with the skull. – Describe the development of the skull from infancy through childhood. 8-7 The Skull
• Skull—the most complex part of the skeleton • 22 bones joined together by sutures (immovable joints) • 8 cranial bones surround cranial cavity which encloses the brain • Other cavities—orbits, nasal cavity, oral (buccal) cavity, middle- and inner-ear cavities, and paranasal sinuses
8-8 The Skull
• Paranasal sinuses—frontal, sphenoid, ethmoid, and maxillary – Lined by mucous membrane and air-filled – Lighten the anterior portion of the skull – Act as chambers that add resonance to the voice • Foramina—holes that allow passage for nerves and blood vessels • 14 facial bones support teeth, facial, and jaw muscles

• Primary curvatures—present at birth – Thoracic and pelvic
• Secondary curvatures—develop later – Cervical and lumbar – Lifting head as it begins to crawl develops cervical curvature – Walking upright develops lumbar curvature
8-47 Abnormal Spinal Curvatures
Copyright © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. Permission required for reproduction or display.
• From disease, paralysis of trunk muscles, poor posture, pregnancy, or congenital defect
• Scoliosis—abnormal lateral curvature – Most common – Usually in thoracic region (a) Scoliosis (b) Kyphosis (“hunchback”) (c) Lordosis – Particularly of adolescent girls Key (“hunchback”) Normal Pathological – Developmental abnormality in which the body and arch fail to Figure 8.21 develop on one side of the vertebrae
8-48 Abnormal Spinal Curvatures
• Kyphosis (hunchback)—exaggerated thoracic curvature – Usually from osteoporosis, also osteomalacia or spinal tuberculosis, or wrestling or weight lifting in young boys
• Lordosis (swayback)—exaggerated lumbar curvature – From pregnancy or obesity

• Body (centrum) Superior articular Lamina facet
– Mass of spongy bone that Vertebral Transverse arch contains red bone marrow process – Covered with thin shell of Vertebral foramen Pedicle compact bone – Weight-bearing portion Body – Rough superior and inferior surfaces provide firm Anterior attachment for (a) 2nd lumbar vertebra (L2) intervertebral discs
• Vertebral foramina Nucleus pulposus – Collectively form vertebral canal for spinal cord Anulus fibrosus
Figure 8.22a,b 8-50 General Structure of Vertebra
• Vertebral arch – Composed of two parts on each side – Pedicle: pillarlike and lamina: platelike • Spinous process – Projection extending from the apex of arch – Extends posteriorly and downward • Transverse process – Extends laterally from point where pedicel and lamina meet • Superior articular processes – Project upward from one vertebra and meets inferior articular processes from the vertebra above • Facets – Flat articular surfaces covered with hyaline cartilage
