- 2. Axial Skeleton: The Skull
- 3. The Skull Contains 22 bones 8 Cranial Bones that enclose and protect the brain 14 Facial Bones that form the face
- 5. Frontal Bone Forms forehead, roofs of the eye sockets (orbits), and most of the front part of the cranial floor Frontal sinuses lie deep within the bone
- 6. Parietal Bones Form the sides and roof of the cranial cavity Separated on top of skull by the sagittal suture
- 7. Temporal Bones Form lower sides of the cranium and part of the cranial floor External auditory meatus (ear canal) is located within these bones
- 8. Mastoid process is behind external auditory meatus and is a point of neck muscle attachment Styloid process is point of neck and tongue muscle and ligament attachment Mandibular fossa forms half of the temporomandibular joint with the mandible (lower jaw bone)
- 9. Occipital Bone Forms posterior part and most of the cranial base Foramen magnum passes through this bone Occipital condyles are on either side of the foramen magnum that connect with the first vertebrae
- 10. Sphenoid Bone The “keystone” of the cranial floor because it holds together all of the other cranial bones The hypophyseal fossa is a depression for the pituitary gland
- 12. Ethmoid Bone Light spongy bone in the anterior part of cranial floor between the eye sockets Houses the nasal cavity Contains the nasal conchae that cause turbulence in inhaled air, cleaning the air before it passes into the rest of the respiratory tract
- 13. Facial Bones
- 14. Nasal Bones Paired to form the bridge of the nose The rest of the nose consists of cartilage
- 15. Maxillae Paried to form the upper jawbone Articulates with every bone in the face except the mandible Forms the anterior 3/4 of the hard palate
- 16. Palatine Bones Paired L-shaped bones Form the posterior portion of the hard palate, part of the floor and lateral wall of the nasal cavity, and a small portion of the eye sockets
- 17. Mandible The lower jawbone Largest and strongest facial bone and only movable skull bone Condylar process articulates with the mandibular fossa of the temporal bone to form the TMJ
- 18. Zygomatic Bones Two cheekbones Form the prominences of the cheeks and part of the lateral wall and floor of the eye sockets
- 19. Lacrimal Bones Paired smallest bones of the face Found near the tear ducts
- 20. Inferior Nasal Conchae Scroll-like bones that project into the nasal cavity Are below the ethmoid bone and other conchae
- 21. Vomer Triangular bone on the floor of the nasal cavity One of the parts of the nasal septum
- 22. Disorders of the Skull
- 23. Cleft Palate Occurs when fusion of the left and right maxillary bones is not completed before birth Repaired between 12 and 18 months with surgery
- 24. TMJ Syndrome Caused by improperly aligned teeth, grinding or clenching teeth, trauma, or arthritis Generally results in pain around the ear and jaw muscles
- 25. Deviated Nasal Septum Nasal septum bends sideways from the middle of the nose Can entirely block nasal passage in extreme cases
- 27. Sutures An immovable joint Found only between skull bones Hold skull bones together
- 28. Coronal Suture- Between the frontal bone and two parietal bones Sagittal Suture- Between the two parietal bones
- 29. Lambdoid Suture- between the parietal bones and occipital bone Squamous Suture- between the parietal bones and temporal bones
- 30. Paranasal Sinuses Paired cavities near nasal cavity Located in the frontal bone, sphenoid bone, ethmoid bone, and maxillae Lined with mucous membranes
- 31. Fontanels Membrane-filled spaces found between cranial bones in infants Replaced with bone by intramembranous ossification and become sutures “Soft Spot” on baby’s head
- 32. Hyoid Bone Does not articulate with or attach to any other bone Suspended from the styloid processes by ligaments and muscles Located in the neck between the mandible and larynx
- 33. Vertebral Column
- 34. Vertebral Column Also called the spine or backbone Composed of vertebrae Functions as strong flexible rod that can rotate and move in all directions Encloses and protects spinal cord Supports the skull Point of attachment for ribs, pelvic girdle, and back muscles
- 35. Regions of the Vertebrae 7 cervical vertebrae in the neck 12 thoracic vertebrae 5 lumbar vertebrae supporting the lower back 1 sacrum (consists of 5 fused sacral vertebrae) 1 coccyx (consists of 4 fused coccygeal vertebrae)
- 36. Intervertebral Discs Lie in between the vertebrae from the 2nd cervical vertebrae to the sacrum Form strong joints, permit movement, and absorb vertical shock
- 37. Vertebral Column Curvature The spine curves like a snake Cervical and lumbar curves are convex (bulging out anteriorly) Thoracic and sacral curves are concave (bulge out posteriorly)
- 38. Vertebrae
- 39. Body Thick, disc-shaped front portion The weight-bearing part of a vertebra
- 40. Vertebral Arch Extends backwards from the body of the vertebra Formed by two short, thick processes (pedicles) that unite with the flat parts of the arch (laminae), ending with a single sharp, slender projection (spinous process)
- 41. Spinal Cord Openings The vertebral foramen is the space between the vertebral arch and body that contains the spinal cord All of the vertebral foramen combined forms the vertebral canal The intervertebral foramen is the opening between adjoining vertebrae on both sides of the column contains a single spinal nerve
- 42. Transverse Processes Extend laterally on each side where the lamina and pedicle join
- 43. Spinous Process Projects from the junction of the laminae Combined with the two transverse processes, these three are points of attachment for muscles to the vertebral column
- 44. Articular Processes Superior Articular Processes join with the vertebra right above them Inferior Articular Processes join with the vertebra right below them The articulating surfaces are called facets and are lined with hyaline cartilage
- 45. Vertebrae Numbered in sequence from top to bottom in each region
- 46. Cervical Vertebrae All have three foramina: one verteral foramen and two transverse foramina
- 47. Atlas (C1 Vertebra) Supports the head Does not have a body or spinous process Upper surface contains the superior articular facets that articulate with the occipital bone (allows you to nod “yes”)
- 48. Axis (C2 Vertebra) Does have a body and spinous process The dens, a tooth- shaped process, projects up through the vertebral foramen of the atlas and serves as a pivot to allow you to shake your head “no”
- 49. Remaining Cervical Vertebrae C3 - C6 all follow the normal anatomy of the typical vertebra C7 is also called the vertebra prominens; it has a single, large spinous process that can be felt at the base of the neck
- 50. Thoracic Vertebrae (T1 - T12) Much larger and stronger than cervical vertebrae Have facets for articulating with the ribs, which limits movement of the vertebrae
- 51. Lumbar Vertebrae (L1 - L5) Largest and strongest of the column Projections are short and thick Spinous processes are well adapted for the attachment of large back muscles
- 52. Sacrum Triangular bone formed by the fusion of 5 sacral vertebrae that occurs between 16-30 years old Serves as strong foundation for the pelvic girdle
- 53. Four sacral foramina on the anterior and posterior sides where nerves and blood vessels pass Sacral canal is a continuation of the vertebral canal The lower entrance of the canal is the sacral hiatus The sacral promontory is a projection on the top border
- 54. Coccyx Triangular shape formed by the fusion of 4 coccygeal vertebrae The top articulates with the sacrum
- 55. Thorax
- 56. Thoracic Cage Bony cage formed by the sternum, costal cartilages, ribs, and bodies of the thoracic vertebrae Encloses and protects the organs of the thoracic cavity and upper abdominal cavity Provides support for the bones of the shoulder and upper limbs
- 57. Sternum Flat, narrow bone located in the center of the anterior thoracic wall Also known as the breastbone Consists of three parts
- 58. The manubrium is the upper part, articulating with the clavicles and first and second ribs. The body is the largest and middle part, articulating directly or indirectly with the 2nd-10th ribs. The xiphoid process is the lowest and smallest part that has some abdominal muscles attached to it.
- 59. Ribs Twelve pairs make up the sides of the thoracic cavity Each rib articulates posteriorly with its corresponding thoracic vertebra
- 60. True Ribs 1st through 7th pairs of ribs Have a direct anterior attachment to the sternum by costal cartilage
- 61. False Ribs 8th through 12th pairs of ribs Costal cartilages either attach indirectly to the sternum or not at all Cartilages of ribs pairs 8 -10 attach to each other and the cartilages of the 7th pair of ribs
- 62. Floating Ribs 11th and 12th pair of ribs are also called floating ribs The costal cartilage at their anterior ends does not attach to the sternum at all Attach only posteriorly to the thoracic vertebrae
- 63. Disorders of the Spine and Thorax
- 64. Herniated (Slipped) Disc Caused by ligaments of the intervertebral discs being weakened or injured, resulting in an increase in pressure in the nucleus pulposus rupturing the surrounding fibrocartilage
- 65. Scoliosis Lateral bending of the vertebral column, usually in the thoracic region Can be treated with braces, surgery, or electrical stimulation
- 66. Spinal Bifida Congenital defect where the laminae don’t unite at the midline Can be mild or severe, and is treated depending on how serious the effects on the patient are
- 67. Vertebral Column Fractures Thoracic fractures usually result from a compression injury Cervical fractures can be fractured or dislocated by extreme whiplash Spinal nerve damage may occur
- 68. Rib Fractures Most common chest injuries Break at the point where the greatest force is applied or at the weakest point on the rib Middle ribs are most commonly broken
- 69. Checkpoint Questions Describe the general features of the skull. Define the following: suture, foramen, nasal septum, paranasal sinus, and fontanel. What are the functions of the vertebral column? What are the main distinguishing characteristics of the bones of the various regions of the vertebral column? What are the functions of the bones of the thorax? What are the parts of the sternum?
