Skeletal System

The skeletal system is composed of different types of connective tissues: Bones – rigid structure Cartilage – soft, cushions the joints Ligaments – attach bone to bone Tendons – attach muscle to bone

Tendons link the skeletal and the

muscular systems.

1. Supports and gives shape to the body. 2. Protects soft body parts. 3. Produces blood cells. 4. Stores minerals (calcium and phosphate). 5. Stores fat. 6. Along with the muscles, permits flexible

body movement.

Bone Structure

Bones contain different types of tissue: Calcified tissue = osseous tissue Blood vessels Nerves Contain collagen fibers that give flexibility

This combination of calcified tissue and collagen

fibers makes the bone strong but flexible.

Bone Structure

All bones have two layers: Compact bone – dense mineralized outer

layer Spongy bone – inner layer with open

network filled with marrow

Typical Long Bone Architecture

Epiphysis – rounded end of the typical long bone, composed mainly of red bone marrow where blood cells are made.

Diaphysis – shaft of the typical long bone, has a cavity filled with yellow marrow where fat is stored.

Periosteum – fibrous outer covering of the bone that contains nerves, blood vessels, and lymphatic vessels. Functions in bone repair and growth.

Compact Bone Structure

Osteon – structural unit of the compact bone.

Osteon structure: Central canal (Haversian) – contains blood

vessels and nerves.

Osteocytes – mature bone cells that maintain bone structure, density, and minerals. Found in cavities called lacunae.

Canaliculi are canals that connect the lacunae to the central canal.

Osteoblasts

Osteoblasts = bone-forming cells.

Immature cells that secrete material called “bone ground substance”: This is non-cellular matrix that surrounds the cells.

Osteoblasts mature into osteocytes after they

have secreted enough material.

Osteoclasts

Osteoclasts = bone-absorbing cells.

These are bone cells on the outer edge of bones.

They release enzymes that eat away at the bone, releasing minerals.

The skeleton begins to form at about 6 weeks after conception.

Most bones grow through adolescence, but some bones continue to grow through about age 25.

Bone continue to change throughout life: Osteoclasts remove the bone matrix, while

osteoblasts build up the matrix.

Ossification – formation of bones.

Step 2: Osteoblasts form a collar of bone around the shaft of the model.

Step 4: Secondary centers of bone formation develop in the ends of the bone.

Step 5: Cartilage remains only on the surfaces that rub against other bones and in the cartilage growth plates.

Cartilaginous surface

Step 1: A cartilaginous model of the future bone forms.

Cartilaginous (epiphyseal) growth plate

Step 3: The shaft of the cartilage model begins to hollow out, and spongy bone fills the space. Blood vessels continue to penetrate the area, and the region of bone formation expands.

Cartilage in Bones

Two regions of cartilage remain at each end of the long bone: The cap that covers the surfaces that rub against

other bones. A plate of cartilage called the epiphyseal plate, or

growth plate.

Bone Growth

Bone growth is stimulated by growth hormone during childhood.

Thyroid hormones ensure that the skeleton grows with the proper proportions.

At puberty, increasing levels of male or female sex hormones initially stimulate cartilage cells to divide, but eventually allow for the growth plates to fuse, and bone can no longer increase in length.

Page 25: Skeletal System - Napa Valley College 8...Skeletal System The skeletal system is composed of different types of connective tissues: Bones – rigid structure Cartilage – soft, cushions

Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc.

Growth hormone (GH) – directly stimulates growth of the epiphyseal plate and stimulates bone growth in general.

Vitamin D – converted to a hormone that causes the intestines to absorb calcium.

Sex hormones – adolescents experience a growth spurt due to an increased level of hormones.

Hormonal Regulation of Bone Growth

Page 26: Skeletal System - Napa Valley College 8...Skeletal System The skeletal system is composed of different types of connective tissues: Bones – rigid structure Cartilage – soft, cushions

Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc.

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) – produced by the parathyroid gland. Accelerates bone recycling and increases blood

calcium.

Calcitonin – produced by the thyroid gland. A hormone that decreases blood calcium levels,

and deposits calcium into the bone.

Homeostasis – maintaining a balance of calcium levels in blood and in bone.

Healing Broken Bones

Broken bones and fractures are the same thing.

Bone fractures are healed by fibroblasts and osteoblasts.

When a break occurs, there is bleeding followed by a clot.

Fibroblasts secrete collagen fibers that form a callus linking the two parts of the bone. This is later replaced by bone.

Cartilage

Cartilage – flexible connective tissue that is not as strong as bone tissue.

Function: cushions joints, provides flexibility Where found: Ends of long bones, nose, ends of ribs, larynx and trachea, disks between vertebrae, knee joint, ear flaps, and epiglottis.

Cartilage cells are called chondrocytes. Cartilage lacks blood vessels, so it is very slow

to heal!

Tendons and Ligaments

Ligaments – connective tissue that connects bone to bone.

Tendons – connective tissue that connects muscle to bone.

Freely movable joints held together by ligaments.

Synovial membrane – produces synovial fluid, an excellent lubricant for the joints.

Bursae – fluid-filled sacs, reduce friction.

Menisci – cartilage between the bones, acts as a cushion.

Cartilage is also found at the ends of the bones.

Synovial Joints

Synovial Joints

Figure 5.13a

A layer of cartilage on the articulating surfaces of the bones reduces friction as the bones move.

Femur

(a) Synovial joints, such as the knee shown here, permit a great range of movement.

A bursa is a fluid-filled sac that cushions certain joints and reduces friction between tendons and ligaments.

The joint cavity is filled with synovial fluid, which serves as a shock absorber and lubricant.

The synovial membrane forms the inner surface of the joint cavity and secretes synovial fluid.

Osteoarthritis – deterioration of cartilage at joints. Rheumatoid Arthritis – chronic inflammatory

disorder of the joints. Sprain – when ligaments are torn or stretched. Bursitis – inflammation of bursa. Tendonitis – inflammation of tendon sheath. Fracture – broken bone: Simple = bone breaks but does not penetrate

through the skin. Compound = bone breaks and protrudes through

the skin.

Osteoporosis

Occurs when more bone is reabsorbed than is formed: Homeostasis is not maintained, and more

calcium is taken out of the bones than is replaced.

Estrogen and testosterone help maintain bone

density.

After menopause, women produce less estrogen and this can lead to reduced bone density.

Risk Factors for Osteoporosis

Treatment

Exercise Increased calcium in the diet: Calcium supplements may be needed. The type of calcium supplement is important.

Decreased Calcium Absorption

Oxalic acid – potent inhibitor of calcium absorption. Found in high concentrations in spinach and

rhubarb, and in somewhat lower concentrations in sweet potato and dried beans.

Sodium – increased sodium intake results in increased loss of calcium in the urine.

Protein – as dietary protein intake increases, the urinary excretion of calcium also increases.

Caffeine – caffeine in large amounts increases urinary calcium content for a short time.
