Skeletal System -Axial System Chapter 7 Part A Skeleton Learn: Names of the bones. Identify specific landmarks that allow: Bones to fit into each other, Organs to fit into the bone cavities, Muscles to attach, Blood vessels and nerves to pass. Practice…Practice…Practice…Practice…Practice!! Functions: Skeleton forms the framework of the body. Along with muscles, it helps in movement of the body and body parts. It protect many internal organs. Skeleton - Divisions Divided into two major subdivisions: Axial system….blue Appendicular system….tan Axial system: Composed of bones that form the longitudinal axis of the body/ bones that make up the head and trunk. 80 bones. Appendicular system: Composed of bones that form The limbs. The bones that attach the limbs to the axial. 126 bones. Total number of bones in adult human body: 206 Axial Skeleton Axial system: 1) Skull 22 bones 2) Bones associated with skull: Hyoid 1 bone Auditory ossicles 6 bones 3) Vertebral column: Vertebrae 24 bones Sacrum 1 bone Coccyx 1 bone 4) Thorax: Sternum 1 bone Ribs 24 bones 80 bones auditory ossicles U-shaped bone in the neck that supports the tongue Skull Skull – Cranial Bones Horizontal section Posterior Roof Anterior Floor Lateral Cranial bones form a box…cranial cavity to hold the brain: Roof of the cranium Floor of the cranium Anterior, posterior and lateral walls of the cranium Skull Ethmoid bone Sphenoid bone Skull – Cranial Bones-Frontal bone Frontal bone Frontal bone (1): Supraorbital foramen Form the forehead, part of the roof of cranium and orbital cavity. Two bones at birth fuse by age 6-8 years. Supraorbital margin- thickened portion Lateral view that forms the superior margin of the orbital cavity. Frontal bone Supraorbital Supraorbital foramen- a hole in the margin foramen Supraorbital blood vessels and nerves enter the margin bone. Skull – Cranial Bones-Frontal bone Frontal bone Frontal sinus- air filled space in the bone. Supraorbital Mucus from sinus helps flush the nasal foramen cavity. Makes the skull lighter. Lateral view Frontal sinus Sagittal section Anterior view Skull – Cranial Bones-Parietal bones Parietal Frontal Sphenoid bone Parietal bones (2): Temporal Form part of the roof, lateral wall and posterior wall of the cranium. Occipital Articulations- Parietal bones articulate with one another by sagittal suture. Lateral view Parietal bones also articulate with frontal, temporal, sphenoid and occipital bone. Q. A fracture in the right superior lateral surface of cranium. Which bone? Superior view Skull – Cranial Bones-Temporal bones Temporal bones (2): Form the lateral wall and floor of the cranium. Lateral view External auditory/acoustic meatus: a tube- Frontal like opening forms the external ear to Parietal direct sound into the ear. Temporal Zygomatic process: a projection of the bone temporal bone that connects with the cheek External acoustic Occipital bone (zygomatic bone) form zygomatic meatus arch (cheek arch).

Styloid process - Attached to tendon of several muscles associated with hyoid bone, tongue and pharynx Zygomatic arch Mandibular fossa Styloid process U-shaped bone in the neck Mastoid process that supports the tongue Inferior view Skull – Cranial Bones-Occipital bone Lateral view Occipital bone (1): Forms the floor and posterior wall of the cranium. External occipital protuberance: a bump for attachment of ligaments from cervical vertebrae to support head. Occipital Superior and inferior nuchal lines: lines bone extending from protuberance for attachment of muscles and ligaments to support head. Foramen magnum: a big hole for spinal cord to exit. Occipital condyles: curved surfaces lateral to foramen magnum to articulate with 1st cervical vertebra. *Pearson-slide 11 Occipital condyle Occipital Superior nuchal line bone Foramen magnum External Occipital protuberance Inferior nuchal line External Occipital protuberance Inferior view Posterior view Skull – Cranial Bones-Sphenoid bone Horizontal section Sphenoid bone (1): Forms the floor of the cranium. Articulates with all other cranial bones… to hold Sella turcica them together…”keystone”. Lesser wing Sella turcica: a depression to accommodate Greater wing pituitary gland. Lesser wings: Extend horizontally anteriorly to sella turcica. Greater wings: Extend laterally from body and forms floor of cranium. Sphenoidal sinuses: drains mucus into nasal cavity. *Pearson- Slide 7 Sella turcica Sphenoidal sinus Sagittal section Skull – Cranial Bones-Sphenoid bone a) Foramen ovale-jaws (slide 23) b) Foramen spinosum-cranial cavity membranes (slide 23) c) Foramen rotundum-face (slide 8) d) Superior orbital fissure-orbit (slide 8) e) Optic canal-optic nerve (slide 8) Superior orbital Optic canal fissure Skull – Cranial Bones-Ethmoid bone Horizontal section Ethmoid bone (1): Cribriform Sponge-like bone…vertically placed in the center of plate the skull. Cribriform plate: forms the roof of the nasal cavity and floor of the cranium. Has perforations-Olfactory foramina- to allow olfactory nerves-provides sense of smell. Crista galli-ridge of bone that projects from the cribriform plate. Allows the attachment of a membrane that stabilizes the position of the brain. Olfactory foramina Cribriform plate Sagittal section Skull – Cranial Bones-Ethmoid bone Ethmoid bone (1): Perpendicular plate: forms part of the nasal septum. Superior and middle nasal conchae: projections in the nasal cavity cause turbulence of the inhaled air…filter, Middle moisten and warm the air. nasal concha Ethmoidal sinuses: drains mucus into nasal cavity. Skull – Sutures Coronal suture Frontal Parietal bone bone Squamous suture Temporal Lambdoid bone Sutures: suture - Seam-lines that connect cranial and facial Occipital bone bones to each other…dense fibrous connective tissue. - Characterized by zigzag appearance Lateral view Squamous suture: Temporal Parietal. Coronal suture: Frontal Parietals. Sagittal suture: Parietal Parietal. Lambdoid suture: Occipital Parietals. Superior view Review Cranial Bones ! Lateral Anterior Inferior view view view ? Frontal ?

Skull Facial bones form the face….cheeks, jaws, nose, orbital Cranial bones surround and cavity, and protect/support protect the brain. the entrances to the digestive and respiratory tracts.
