Samantha Meyer BIOL 303 Systems Lesson Plan Title: Skeletal System Grade Level: 2nd Grade Purpose: The purpose of this activity is to learn about the skeletal system and where the bones are located in the body. Objective: Students will be able to create their own model of the skeletal system and label a model of the skeletal system. Materials: Real life skeleton model Smart board www.brainpop.com (skeleton) Skeleton diagram worksheet (1 per student) Skeleton model project cut outs (1 per

Muscle contractions are the way that humans are able to move within the enviornment that surrounds them. To be able to understand the complexity of movement‚ there needs to be an understanding of the gross and micro-anatomy muscle contraction‚ and an understanding of the physiology of muscle contraction. This paper will provide an explaination of both the anatomy and physiology of muscle contraction. Anatomy of Muscle Contraction There are three types of muslces within the human body: skeletal

Paula Radcliffe Skeletal The long term effects of Paula’s skeletal system is that her bones will get stronger‚ this is due to the bones density increasing‚ and calcium increasing in the bones. Another effect is that her ligaments would become more flexible. This is due to the elasticity increasing‚ therefore reducing any risk of injury from a pulled/ripped ligament. The amount of synovial fluid she produces would also go up. This would help her‚ because synovial lubricates the

The Skeletal System provides us with many important functions. It provides us with the shape and form for our bodies as well as supporting‚ protecting‚ allowing our body to move freely‚ producing blood for the body‚ and storing minerals. The Skeletal System is the system of our body that gives our body its physical shape and with the help of the Muscular System it keeps us moving and makes us able to do tasks that we don’t think about like raising our leg to kick a football or using our legs to boost

A motor neuron‚ a nerve ending that is attached to a muscle fiber in Petzold’s huge bicep‚ sends a message to contract. This message goes to the neuromuscular junction‚ which is the connection between the actual nerve fiber and muscle fiber. As the message to contract reaches the terminals a neurotransmitter‚ a chemical messenger for the body‚ is released into the gap between the terminal end‚ and the sarcolemma and motor end plate called the synaptic cleft. The particular neurotransmitter is called

The Skeletal System Caleb Cornelious The skeletal system is one of the most important systems in the human anatomy. Without this system our bodies wouldn’t have any source of motion or movement. From the skull all the way to the toes of our feet‚ everything is important. Out of the 206 bones‚ they all form our different shapes and make us all unique. They create our frame work and enables us the move and perform our different activities during our everyday life. Another thing that the skeletal system

List of Skeletal System Diseases The 206 bones of the skeletal system provide a strong framework upon which muscles‚ tissues and organs can attach. This structure also protects your internal organs and allows your body to move around freely. Like any other body system‚ however‚ disease can affect your skeletal system. Arthritis Arthritis is an inflammatory condition that affects your joints‚ such as the knees‚ or a portion of your spinal column. Typical symptoms of this condition include joint

found in animals: connective‚ muscle‚ nervous‚ and epithelial. We are going to go into muscle tissue. The cells of muscle tissues are called fibers. There are three types of muscle tissue and they are skeletal‚ cardiac‚ and smooth. All types can go though hypertrophy (enlargement or overgrowth of an organ or part of the body due to the increased size of the constituent cells). Muscle fibers contract due to the interaction of the contractile proteins‚ actin and myosin. Muscle contraction generates contractile
