when dealing with bones of the deceased individual to aid law enforcement in establishing profile on the unidentified remains. Anthropologists have collected data from many populations in the world, showing the relationship between the parts of the skeleton and body size and stature. Anthropologist have examined

or even death can occur. The musculoskeletal system is a great example of how the body works together to function properly. The system is responsible for providing support, stability, form, and movement to the body. It consists of the bones of the skeleton, cartilage, ligaments, joints, tendons, and muscles. Each part of the musculoskeletal system is intertwined and work together to form a fully functioning system. To show this is true, I will

Bones support, move, and protect the body; they also give us our features. But without bone cells we would have no bones. Bone cells are the living units that make up your bones and keep them functioning. Bone cells have two major roles, which are the production of new bones and resorption or destruction of old bone. They also carry out other small roles. There are four main types of bone cells: Osteogenic, which are bone cells that respond to traumas, osteoblasts, which form bone matrix around themselves

Compact Bone is known for being hard and dense but when you look at it through a microscope, you can see that it is a minute tube which forms a network of bones and contain blood vessels. ‘One of the three layers of bone. Nearly 80% of a bone is this layer’. The compact bone stores minerals, supports the bone and strengthens it. This bone is made up of osteon which is an elongated cylinder which allows the flow of blood. Each osteon consists of lamella, layers of the compact matric that surround

My particular bone model, representing that of the femur, beared the ability to withstand and support the weight of a standard textbook. Depicted on the outermost portion is that of the periosteum, the element in which provides protection for the remaining sections of the bone. Additionally, I was able to incorporate a representation of compact bone into the model; the unforgiving nature of this tissue greatly aided in supporting the substantial weight. A key component within my model was that of

The aspects of this system that were of particular interest to me was the skeleton. It is extremely fascinating to see how 206 bones come together to form this framework of the human body, which makes up to approximately 20% of our overall body mass. It offers the body an ‘infrastructure’ site for other bones, tissue or muscle to attach itself to (Main 2010). For instance, the ribs attach itself posterior the spine to protect the lungs and heart. Additionally, the spinal cord is comprised of 26 bones

musculoskeletal system is an organ system that gives humans and animals the ability to move using their muscular and skeletal systems. The musculoskeletal system provides posture, support, stability, and movement to the body. It is made up of the bones of the skeleton, muscles, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, joints, and other connective tissue which supports and binds tissues and organs together. The musculoskeletal system's primary functions are allowing motion, protecting vital organs and supporting the body

The musculoskeletal system are made up of bones, joints, ligaments and muscles. The skeleton shapes up the body, protects the internal organs, is responsible for blood cell formation, and provides sites for muscle attachment. The muscles holds the skeleton straight and creates physical movement of the body. The skeletal system consists of bones formed from bone tissue that provide structure and function to the overall body. Also included in the skeletal system is the cartilage that forms the joints

STICKLER SYNDROME: Case study in a Caucasian family ABSTRACT: Stickler syndrome is a genetic disease with autosomal dominance having hereditary Arthro-ophthalmopathy related to incorrect collagen structure. This syndrome is characterized by ocular, orofacial, auditory, and musculoskeletal abnormalities. This connective tissue disorder distributed throughout the body and multiple organ system. This paper discusses the case of a Caucasian family with stickler syndrome and emphasizing the benefits

The hand is a very important extremity attached to the human body and is used in everyday life. Humans use it doing almost everything. The major systems the body uses to be able to move the hands are the skeletal, muscular and nerves systems. The skeletal system of the hand involves the bones, such as, eight carpal bones, five metacarpal and fourteen finger bones (Istitute for Quality & Efficiency in Health Care, 2013). All connected by joints and ligaments. The muscles include two parts, the thenar
