BMS129 Lecture Notes - Lecture 2: Quadriceps Tendon, Mastication, Vertebra
BMS129 Week 10 - Bone - Skeletal System and Joints
This topic is split into 2 lectures:
1. Bone tissue
2. Skeletal system and joints
General advice: read textbook references, lecture slides, any relevant textbook
questions, and assess learning against learning outcomes.
Lecture 1 - Skeletal System and Joints
Recommended readings
: Saladin CH 8 pp 230-268 & CH9 pp 275-302 and the second
lecture of the bone lectures.
When finished with this section, test your knowledge against these learning outcomes,
and go back to revise the ones you are unfamiliar with.
1. List and identify the bones of the axial and appendicular skeletons
2. Explain how the structural features of the skull reflect its function
3. Explain how the structural features of the vertebral column (VC) reflect its
function
4. Explain how the structural features of the thoracic cage reflects its function
5. Discuss the similarities & differences between the pelvic & pectoral girdle
6. Discuss similarities and differences between the upper and lower limb bones
7. List & describe the structure of the 3 types of fibrous joint types with examples for
each
8. List & describe the structure of the 2 types of cartilaginous joint types with
examples for each
9. List & describe the anatomical components of a typical synovial joint
10.Discuss factors that affect a joint’s range of motion
11.State the 6 classes of synovial joint types with examples for each
12.Exemplify correct anatomical terminology for all synovial joint movements
List and identify the bones of the axial and appendicular skeletons
Axial - central axis
Appendicular - limbs
