THIS LAB? The skeletal framework of the body is composed of at least 206 bones and the associated tendons‚ ligaments‚ and cartilages. The skeletal system has a variety of important functions‚ including‚ the support of soft tissues‚ blood cell production‚ mineral/electrolyte and lipid storage‚ and‚ through its relationships with the muscular system‚ the support and movement of the body as a whole. Skeletal system disorders can thus affect many other systems. The skeletal system is in turn influenced

The main function of the skeletal system is to make the blood cells for the circulatory system and also to hold the tissue of the body. 6. Describe how differences in our skeleton can contribute to our identity. The differences in size and shape of most skeletal parts can determine our identity. Our gender can be determined by the shape of our bones‚ mostly the pelvic

In this project‚ you will assume the role of a forensic anthropologist and complete a detailed examination of skeletal remains. Forensic anthropologists use a combination of quantitative and qualitative measures to predict traits from bone. Through a series of metric measurements and direct observation‚ you will gather clues about the identity of the remains that

1. Cite ten (10) different types of fractures‚ including a definition of each. 1. Compression fracture occurs when bone surfaces are being forced against each other. This type of fracture is common with people suffering from osteoporosis. 2. Greenstick fracture is a break that does not extend through the bone. With greenstick fractures‚ the bone is broken on one side where as the other side is bent. This fracture is also known as an incomplete fracture. 3. Comminuted fracture occurs when a segment

Osteoporosis is a condition caused by a decrease in bone density which lowers the strength of all bones in the body and makes them fragile (Colbert‚ Ankney & Lee‚ 2013). The major functions of the skeletal system include: provides structure‚ allows the body to move (with the muscles)‚ protects the soft body parts

moving The human body is only able to assume it’s different posture and maintain its structure due to the skeletal system. The skeletal system is made up of bones which have an outer hard cortical layer and an inner soft trabecular layer made of cancellous bone. Within some long bone is the all important marrow from where all the blood cells originate after maturation. The skeletal system can be divided into 2 groups: 1.
