this assignment we are looking at the skeletal system. The skeleton is the internal framework of our body. It is made up of three things; bones‚ cartilage and joints. Without these three things we would just be a heap of skin‚ muscle and internal organs. The skeleton is made up of 206 bones that are separated into two groups. Firstly‚ the Axial Skeleton. The Axial skeleton is made up of 80 different bones whereas the Appendicular skeleton is made up of 126 bones. The Axial Skeleton The axial is a

The Skeletal System is the framework of the body‚ consisting of 206 bones as well as a network of tendons that is made of tough band of fibrous collagen tissue connecting a muscle to bone‚ ligaments connecting bones to joint and cartilage that allows some flexibility of movement. The skeletal system serves 4 functions: (1) Giving the body its shape (2) Protecting the vital internal organs (3) Allowing for movement (4) Storing minerals and producing blood cells The skeletal system has 6 basic components:

SKELETAL SYSTEM The Arctic wolf’s body is built for long-distance travel and withstand different types of weather than other wolves. The Arctic wolf’s skeleton system is made for them to run‚ jump‚ and catch their prey. The part of the wolf’s skeletal starts with the part of the body that has bones of the limbs‚ skull‚ and a deep chest. 1. The limbs of the wolf include the legs and toes. The wolf has long legs‚ large paws‚ and short toes. The wolf has five toes on the forefeet and four toes on

Chapter 5: The Skeletal System I. Introduction. The skeletal system consists of the bones‚ along with the cartilage and fibrous connective tissue that make up the ligaments that connect bones to bone at joints. A. Functions of the Skeleton. 1. The skeleton supports the body. 2. The skeleton protect soft body parts. The skull protects the brain‚ the rib cage protects the heart and lungs‚ and the vertebrae protect the spinal cord. 3. The skeleton produces blood cells. Red bone marrow contains

Function of the Skeletal System 1. Support 2. Movement: The bones of the upper and lower limbs pull and push‚ with the help of muscles. 3 storage as a mineral store. 97% of the body’s calcium is stored in bone. Here it is easily available and turns over fast. In pregnancy the demands of the fetus for calcium require a suitable diet and after menopause hormonal control of calcium levels may be impaired: calcium leaches out leaving brittle osteoporotic bones. 4. Protective. Skull for the brain

Renal= related to the kidneys A bone disease that forms when kidneys do not maintain enough calcium and phosphorus in the blood Common problem with kidney disease and dialysis Often called the "silent crippler" because some symptoms are not present until being on dialysis (a process for removing waste and excess water from blood) for a couple years To test for renal osteodystrophy‚ doctors may take samples of blood to measure the levels of phosphorus‚ calcium‚ PTH (parathyroid hormone)‚ and calcitriol

The Skeletal System The skeletal system is made up of bones‚ the joints where bones meet‚ and the connective tissues called cartilages that hold the bones together. The human skeleton is made up of 206 bones‚ and can be divided up into to two parts‚ the Axial Skeleton and the Appendicular Skeleton. (Adams et al.‚ pg. 4)(Boundless‚ 2013) Axial Skeleton The axial skeleton forms the main axis or core of the skeletal system. It consists of the skull‚ vertebral column‚ and thoracic cage. As noted by
