  • Bones of the Skeletal System
    BIOLOGY 211: HUMAN ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY ********************************************************************************************************* BONES OF THE SKELETAL SYSTEM ********************************************************************************************************** Reference: Saladin, KS: Anatomy & Physiology, The Unity of Form and Function, 6th ed. (2012) or 7th ed. (2015) Please review Chapters 7 & 8 before beginning this lab. INTRODUCTION The skeletal system has a number of important functions in the human body. It is the framework around which the body is organized, it provides levers for muscles to pull against, and it surrounds and protects many soft organs. Equally important, bones serve as a "buffer" in which calcium and other ions can be deposited and withdrawn according to the changing needs of the body, and they are the site of almost all blood cell production. Contrary to our popular conceptions, bones are not rigid, inflexible structures: they are constantly changing, and can have a remarkable degree of flexibility before they break. The organs of the skeletal system are the bones and joints, and like all organs are composed of different types of tissue. Although we tend to classify them into "types" such as "long bones", "flat bones", etc., each is in fact unique and ideally suited to its particular location and function. We classify bones as belonging to either: a) the axial skeleton (head and trunk) b) the appendicular skeleton (arms and legs), However, you should always bear in mind that the entire skeletal system functions as a unit. If you look at any bone, you will see that it is rarely flat or smooth. Bones have a variety of bumps, grooves, holes, etc. which allow them to serve their specific functions.

    NCBI Bookshelf. A service of the National Library of Medicine, National Institutes of Health. StatPearls [Internet]. Treasure Island (FL): StatPearls Publishing; 2018 Jan-. Anatomy, Bony Pelvis and Lower Limb, Leg Bones Authors Austin J. Cantrell1; Matthew Varacallo2. Affiliations 1 University of Oklahoma College of Med. 2 Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Kentucky School of Medicine Last Update: January 17, 2019. Introduction The leg is the region of the lower limb between the knee and the foot. It comprises two bones: the tibia and the fibula. The role of these two bones is to provide stability and support to the rest of the body, and through articulations with the femur and foot/ankle and the muscles attached to these bones, provide mobility and the ability to ambulate in an upright position. The tibia articulates with the femur at the knee joint. The knee joint consists of three compartments [1][2] medial tibiofemoral compartment lateral tibiofemoral compartment patellofemoral compartment At the ankle, the tibia and fibula create the articular surface for the talus. The ankle mortise is a specialized articulation providing support and optimizing motion and function through the ankle joint. A normal ankle joint ultimately optimizes and allows for physiologic mobility of the foot and its associated joints and articulations. The bones and fascia also divide the lower leg into four compartments [3][4] anterior compartment lateral compartment posterior compartment, superficial posterior compartment, deep Structure and Function The tibia is the second largest bone in the body and provides support for a significant portion of the weight-bearing forces transmitted from the rest of the body.

We measured various parameters of the dried tibia, then by applying linear regression Received: 25 Dec 2017 we formulated maximum tibia length which can be conveniently used for arriving at human Accepted: 18 May 2018 stature. Available Online: 01 Jul 2018 Methods: The obtained data were analyzed by descriptive statistics methods and expressed as mean (SD). The Pearson correlation coefficient (r) was used to express the relationship between the Maximum Tibia Length (MTL) and other parameters of tibia. The linear regression analysis was performed and the regression equation was arrived for the prediction of MTL.
