Skeletal System Skeletal system is the biological system providing support in living organisms. Skin‚ muscle and bones allow movement. Skin - pliable covering. Muscles do actual moving. Bones give anchor to move against. The skeleton functions not only as the support for the body but also in haematopoiesis‚ the manufacture of blood cells that takes place in bone marrow. This is why people who have cancer of the bone marrow almost always die. It is also necessary for protection of vital organs

All of our body’s systems work together. One body system often times cannot work without the help of another system. The best example of systems working together is the skeletal system and the muscular system. Muscles are attached to bones; the muscles make the bones move. Without bones there is nothing to hold together the structure of muscles. Without both of these systems working together our body would be impossible to move on its own. The skeletal system is the system in our body that provides

December 14‚ 2011 Skeletal System and Muscular System In anatomy and physiology we study the structure of living things and the function of living systems. In physiology‚ the scientific method is applied to determine how different organisms‚ organ systems‚ organs‚ cells‚ and biomolecules carry out the chemical or physical function that they have in the living system. Both anatomy and physiology are subcategories of biology. Throughout our class we have discussed many different systems of the body. One

Ball-and-Socket Joint Joints are essential in allowing movement of the human body. They are located at the intersection of bones‚ and their structures determine the type of movement that will occur at that location. Each joint contains components of the skeletal and muscular systems and connective tissues that function together to allow movement to occur. A ball-and-socket joint is one example of a synovial joint. In a ball-and-socket joint‚ the round head of one bone rests within a cup-shaped depression

Skeletal‚ Muscular‚ and Integumentary System The Muscular System Our muscular system provides the main source of force to put our bodies into motion. More than 40% of our body mass is composed of muscle. Types of Muscular Tissue There are three types of muscle tissue: 1. Skeletal Voluntary movement‚ attached to bones. 2. Smooth Involuntary movement‚ found in digestive tract‚ circulatory system‚ etc. 3. Cardiac Involuntary movement‚ found only in heart. Muscle Contraction Skeletal Muscle

Component 1: Identify the body systems affected by the disease Osteoporosis affects the skeletal system of the body. 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
