Slide 2 of 24
Key Terms
Skeletal system The body system that serves as a support
framework, protects vital organs, works with
muscles to produce movement, and produces
blood cells.
Slide 3 of 24
Functions of the Skeletal System

Your skeletal system has five main roles.
• provides support
• protects internal organs
• allows your body to move
• stores and produces materials that your body
needs (blood cells)
Slide 4 of 24
Support and Protection

• Your skeleton is made up of all the bones in
your body.
• Your skeleton gives your body its basic shape and
provides the support that you need.
• Many bones of the skeletal system protect internal
organs.
Slide 5 of 24
Movement
In coordination with your muscular and nervous
systems, your skeletal system allows you to move.
Slide 6 of 24
Storage and Production of Materials

• Your bones store essential substances which are
released when other parts of the body need them.
• Some bones also produce blood cells.

Bones and Joints

• Your skeletal system is made up of just over 200
bones.
• A place in your body where two or more of your
bones come together is called a joint.
Slide 11 of 24
Development of Bones
• Your bones are living structures that undergo change
throughout your life.
• Cartilage is a tough supportive tissue that is softer
and more flexible than bone.
• By young adulthood, most of this cartilage is
replaced by bone in a process called ossification.
• In a process called ossification minerals, such as

calcium and phosphorus, are deposited within the
cartilage, making it hard.
Slide 12 of 24
Structure of Bones
• Bone consists of two different types of tissue—
compact bone and spongy bone.
• Another type of tissue called marrow fills the spaces
in bones.
• There are two types of marrow—red and yellow.
Slide 13 of 24
Compact Bone
Compact bone makes up the
outer layer of all bones. Although
it looks dense and solid, It is full
of holes for nerves and blood vessels.
Spongy Bone

breakdown bone.
Central Cavity
Central cavities in long
bones usually contain
yellow bone marrow (fat).
Slide 14 of 24
Joints
• Joints allow for movement and protect bones from
friction and force.
• Bones are held together at joints by strong, fibrous
bands called ligaments.

Slide 17 of 24
FYI – Cracking Knuckles

• Cracking knuckles has not been clearly linked to
causing arthritic problems.
• The popping or cracking sound is normal.
• When a joint is pulled, lower pressure is created in
the joint area, causing tiny air bubbles to break.
• Which is the noise people hear.
Slide 18 of 24
Keeping Healthy
• A combination of eating well, exercising, and
avoiding injuries contributes to lifelong bone and
joint health.
• Regular medical checkups can help detect skeletal
system problems.
Slide 19 of 24
Eating Well
• Adequate intake of calcium and phosphorus will help your
bones grow to their maximum size and strength.
• Osteoporosis is a condition in which the bones
become weak and break easily.
• Other nutrients that are important for bone health
include potassium, magnesium, and vitamins A, C,
and D.
Slide 20 of 24
Exercising
• Another way to build strong bones and prevent
osteoporosis is to get plenty of weight-bearing
exercise.
• Activities in which the bones support the entire
weight of your body help your bones grow strong and
dense.
Slide 21 of 24
Avoiding Bone Injuries

• A fracture is a break in a bone.
• You can protect your bones from fractures.
• When participating in a physical activity, wear
appropriate safety equipment, such as helmets and
pads.
• Always wear a seat belt when traveling in a vehicle.
Slide 22 of 24
Avoiding Joint Injuries

Proper warm-up and stretching exercises are important to
help prevent joint injuries.
• Sprains - A sprain is an overstretched or torn ligament.
• Dislocations - In a dislocation, the ends of the bones in a
joint are forced out of their normal positions.
• Torn Cartilage - Serious damage to the cartilage between
the bones in a joint is known as torn cartilage.
• Overuse Injuries - When an activity is performed too often
or too strenuously, joints may become irritated and
inflamed.
Slide 23 of 24
Medical Checkups
• A doctor can advise you on how to prevent serious
injury or recommend other professionals who can
help you.
• A nurse or doctor may check your spine for scoliosis,
an abnormal curvature of the spine.
