Musculoskeletal System
Bones & Cartilage
· Types of connective tissue
o Bone – ______
o ______- soft and flexible
Functions of Bones:
1) Serve as site for muscles to attach to move body parts
2) Give body its shape and ______
3) ______delicate structures such as heart, lungs, spinal cord and brain
4) Serve as storage place for ______
5) Produce red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets in ______
Bone structure
1. ______- osteocytes trapped in small cavities in bone structure
2. Connective tissue fibers - made off protein- ______
3. Inorganic compounds- calcium and phosphorus
4. Haversian Canal- cavity in bone that contains blood vessels and
nerves that ______
5. Periosteum- outer covering of bone that is ______
______** muscles attach here too**
Bone is constantly being broken down and rebuilt
o ______-
§ build new cells by secreting collagen protein ,
§ then ______forms on the fibers to form hard, heavy bone
o Osteoclasts-
§ ______
§ release calcium and phosphorus
Bone tissue types
1. Compact bone- ______
2. Spongy Bone- very ______(full of holes)- marrow fills holes
Bone Marrow Types
1. ______-
· Found: in spongy bones of vertebrae, ribs, cranium and tips of long bones or arms and legs
· Function: ______and some white blood cells
2. Yellow Marrow-
· found in ______
· made of fat cells
Cartilage-
· connective tissue that bends easily
· gives support and ______
______and pressure
· Found in:
§ Embryos- most of skeleton begins as cartilage then becomes bone
· Ossification-
______
§ Children- more cartilage than adults therefore their bones are more elastic and not as easily broken
§ Adults- ______, around joints

Skeletal System
Total # of bones: ______
2 Main Parts:
______skeleton-
§ ______- cranium and facial and jaw bones (mandible)
§ ______- vertebrae with cartilage discs in between to cushion, ribs and sternum (breastbone)
Appendicular Skeleton –
§ ______
§ Pectoral girdle- Shoulder blades (scapula) and collar bones (clavicle)
§ ______- hip bones
Joints-
· point where ______
· Held together by ______(tough fibrous bands of connective tissue)
Joint Types:
§ Immovable- cranium (tightly fitted)
§ Movable-
1. ______- Back & Forth motion (knee & elbow)
2. Ball & Socket- move in all directions, ball shaped fit into a cuplike space (shoulder & hip)
3. ______- side to side & up and down motion (base of skull)
4. Gliding- some bending and twisting movement
(______)
***************************************************************
MUSCLES
Types:
1) ______Muscle- used in locomotion and in all voluntary movement
· Cells fuse together to form fibers
o bundles of fibers bind together to form muscles
· ______appearance- striped with light & dark bands, shows overlapping fibers
· Fibers made up of thin filaments called Actin & Myosin
o Filaments ______to contract (shorten) and relax (lengthen)
· Connected by ______to bones
· Muscles pull bones when they contract (shorten)** cannot push**
· ______to each other:
o As one muscle contracts (shortens) the
______(lengthens)
o Example- Biceps (flexor bends a joint) and triceps (extensor extends or straightens a joint) in the arm
o
· Unique to Skeletal Muscle:

§ ______muscle
· Unique to Cardiac Muscle:
