SKELETAL SYSTEM
 Have you observed how houses
are built?
 How will you compare that to the
human body?
 Is there a framework that provides
structure to the human body?
 What do you call this framework?

 What is the purpose of the human
skeleton?
 The skeletal system works as a
support structure for your body. It
gives the body its shape, allows
movement, makes blood cells,
provides protection for organs and
stores minerals.

- Your sternum is the long
flat bone which goes from
your throat to the bottom of
your ribs and to which your
ribs are attached. The
primary function of the
sternum is the protection of
the heart, lungs, and blood
vessels from physical

ribs. The upper 7 pairs are
the true ribs because they are
connected to the breastbone
and the last two pairs are not
connected. These ribs are

- Your clavicle (collarbone) is a
long, slightly curved bone that
connects your arm to your body.
You'll find one on both sides of the
base of your neck. The bones help
keep your shoulder blade in the
correct position as you move. The
word “clavicle” comes from the
Latin “clavicula,” which translates
to “little key.”

- The humerus is your upper
arm bone. Other than the bones
in your leg, it's the longest bone
in your body. It's a critical part
of your ability to move your
arm. Your humerus also
supports lots of important
muscles, tendons, ligaments and
parts of your circulatory system.

- The ulna is one of the two forearm
long bones that, in conjunction with
the radius, make up the
antebrachium. The bone spans from
the elbow to the wrist on the medial
side of the forearm when in
anatomical position. In comparison
to the radius, the ulna is described
to be larger and longer.

- In humans the five metacarpals
are flat at the back of the hand and
bowed on the palmar side; they
form a longitudinal arch that
accommodates the muscles,
tendons, and nerves of the palm.
The metacarpals also form a
transverse arch that allows the
fingertips and thumb to be
brought together for manipulation.

- The patella is your kneecap.
It's the bone at the front of your
knee joint. It's the biggest bone in
your body embedded in a tendon
(a sesamoid bone). Your patella
helps your quadriceps muscle
move your leg, protects your knee
joint, and supports lots of
important muscles, tendons and
ligaments.

- The tibia is one of two bones
that comprise the leg. As the
weight-bearing bone, it is
significantly larger and stronger
than its counterpart, the fibula.
The tibia forms the knee joint
proximally with the femur and
forms the ankle joint distally with
the fibula and talus.

The Stapes bone
The stapes bone located in the middle ear is considered the
shortest bone in the human body. A horseshoe-shaped bone is
responsible for transmitting the sound wave to the brain. It is 2-3
mm or 0.1 inches in length and thus is considered the smallest
bone.
