Document Summary

Hard tissues: skeletal system: the human skeleton is 200+ bones (*cartilage, the skeleton is divided into two parts: Appendicular skeleton: pelvic, shoulder girdle, and upper and lower limbs: bone types include: long (arm), at (hip), irregular (spine), short (foot), sesamoid (knee cap) Soft tissues: skeletal muscle: epithelial tissue: skin, connective tissue: ligaments, tendons, fascia, *cartilage (joints: bursa, meniscus, fat pads, nervous tissue: regulate internal/external environments via neurons, muscle tissue: skeletal, smooth, cardiac, skeletal muscle (striated) Structure: long, cylindrical; alternating light and dark striations. Muscle belly, muscle fascicle, muscle bre (cell), myo brils, myo laments. Origin: closer to the core of the body. Insertion: furthest from the core of the body. Musculoskeletal anatomy: articulations (joints: synarthroses: immovable or slightly moveable. Cartilaginous joints: cartilage (ie. sternum, iv discs, pubic symphysis: diarthroses: freely moveable. Accessory movements: roll, slide (glide), and spin: articulations: synovial joints. Synovial uid: nutrition, decreases friction and reduces joint destruction.
