Title: Protection, Support
1Protection, Support Locomotion
2- Skin has 4 types of tissues
- 1. Epithelial - covers surface of body
- 2. Connective - tough and flexible protein
fibers, holds the body together - 3. Muscle interact with hairs on the skin to
respond to stimuli - 4. Nervous helps detect external stimuli as
pain or pressure
3Skin composed of 2 layers
- 1. Epidermis
- outermost layer, 25-30 layers of dead cells,
- keratin a protein called which protects and
gives elasticity - melanin inner layer contains pigment that
colors skin and protects from sun
4Skin composed of 2 layers
- 2. Dermis inner, thicker portion of the skin
which contains - blood vessels
- Nerves nerve endings
- hair follicles
- sweat and oil glands
- subcutaneous fat - various amounts of fat lie
under the dermis
5- Functions of the Skin
- 1. Thermoregulation temperature control
- 2. Sensory organ pressure, pain, temperature
- 3. Produces essential vitamins Vitamin D
- 4. Protective layer physical and chemical shield
6Skin Facts!
7Skin Injury and Healing
- Epidermis injury fills with deeper epidermal
cells through cell division - Dermis Injury bleeding occurs, clots form, scab
covers site, WBC invade the area to clean up the
mess - Scaring occurs due to connective tissue being
laid down on severe damage/gaps to skin

9Amazing Skeleton Facts Smallest bones are found
in the ear. Longest bone in the body is the
femur Bones are filled with a fatty substance
called bone marrow In Bone marrow, red and
white blood cells are manufactured and then
released into the bloodstream. Over half the
body's bones are in the hands and feet The only
jointless bone in your body is the hyoid bone in
your throat.
10Skeletal System- 206
- Two systems
- 1. Axial (green) skull, vertebrae, ribs and the
sternum - 2. Appendicular
- (Purple) - arms, legs, shoulder and hip
11- Joints - point where 2 bones meet
- Ligament - fibrous structure that connects bone
to bone - Tendon - connective tissue that connects muscle
to bone - Bursae - fluid filled sacs to protect
bones/tendons
12Functions of the skeleton
- Protect internal organs Support -Move
muscular attachments, levers - Cells - produce blood cells, store fat
- Storehouse essential minerals, Ca
Did you know that humans and giraffes have the
same number of bones in their necks? Giraffe neck
vertebrae are just much, much longer!

14Bone Tissue
- Bones are porous, these pores contain living
cells and channels for blood vessels that supply
the cells with nutrients. The pores make bones
lighter. - 2 Types
- 1. Spongy or Cancellous bone tissue
- contains many large spaces filled with marrow
(storage for marrow) - 2. Compact or Dense bone tissue
- contains few spaces, it is deposited in a layer
over the spongy bone tissue
15- Diaphysis-
- Shaft or long main portion, hollow, covered in
compact bone - Epiphysis
- Extremities or ends of the bones, bulbous in
shape to provide muscle attachment - Metaphysis
- growing portion of the bone
- Articular Cartilage
- Thin layer of hyaline cartilage covering the
epiphysis (cushions and protects)
16Types of Joints
- Go to page 931 in your book
- Draw and give an example of the 4 types of joints
- 1. Hinge
- 2. Ball Socket
- 3. Gliding
- 4. Pivot
17Types of Joints
- Gliding - (arthrodia),
- flat articulating surfaces side to side and back
and forth movements - (Flex/Ext and Ab/ad)
- 2 planes - biaxial
- Ex carpal, tarsal bones, sternum, clavicle,
scapula - Hinge -(ginglymus) - convex surface fits into the
concave surface - single plane motion (monaxial) flex/ext
- Ex elbow, knee, ankle interphalangeal joints
18- Ball and Socket - (spheroid) ball like surface
fits into a cup like depression - (triaxial)moves in 3 planes flex/ext, ab/ad and
rotation - Ex hip and shoulder
- Pivot - twist on each other, C1-C2,
radio-ulnar joint
19Weird Muscle Facts!
- Flea's can jump 130 times higher than their own
height. In human terms this is equal to a 6ft.
person jumping 780 ft. into the air - Hummingbirds are the only animals able to fly
backwards - A cat has 32 muscles in each ear
20Muscular gt600
- Three Types of muscle fibers
- 1. Smooth muscle - involuntary, non-striated,
blood vessels, digestive and reproductive tract - 2. Cardiac muscle - involuntary, striated, has
own electrical conduction system, heart - 3. Skeletal muscle - voluntary, striated,
muscles for movement
21- muscle fibers - myofibrils - smaller protein
filaments either - actin - thinner filaments
- myosin- thicker filaments
- sarcomeres - sections of the functional units of
muscle - ATP supplies muscles in aerobic and anaerobic
exercises - Sliding filament theory - actin filaments within
a sarcomere slider toward one another shortening
the sarcomere and causing the muscle to contract
