What is the function of bone?
The human skeleton consists of roughly 206 bones.

Their function includes:

• Support and framework

• Leverage for movement
• Protection of vital organs
• Storage of minerals
• Production of blood cells

There are two types of bone. Cortical (compact)

bone and Trabecular (spongy) bone.

Describe their Features below:

1. Cortical (Compact) Bone:

 5. Complete the following table to describe various features of bones:

Type of Marking Description

Projections that are the site of muscle/ligament attachment

Tuberosity

Crest

Trochanter

Line

Tubercle

Epicondyle

Spine

Process

Surfaces that form joints

Head

Facet

Condyle

Depressions and openings

Foramen

Groove

Fissure

Notch

Fossa

Meatus

Sinus

Bones themselves can be classified based on their shape into 1 of 5 categories: long, short, flat, irregular
and sesamoid. Shape often determines function.

Divisions of the Skeleton

The skeleton may be divided into portions: Axial and Appendicular. These divisions include:

Axial (80 bones) Appendicular (126 bones)

• Skull (cranium & face) • Shoulder girdles
• Hyoid • Upper Limbs
• Auditory Ossicles • Pelvic Girdle
• Vertebral Column • Lower Limbs
• Thorax (sternum & ribs)
